Oekaki/Java problems & solutions

[all patched up]

Thank you!^^

I've been having issues with the oekaki since I reloaded it onto my computer (it crashed in the spring). Sometimes when I am drawing, I notice that partway through applying something, the cursor tries to 'run away' on me and it ruins what I'm doing. I'm not working with a tablet so it's nothing to do with that. Is there any way I can stop it from disrupting my work?

That sounds like cursor issues rather than oekaki issues, to be honest. I assume you use a mouse to draw?

Hello! I'm just wondering: is getting into the most popular this week category automatic? Because I recently got a picture of mine with 31 likes, and wasn't sure if it would get to that category.

I do believe that's automatic, yes. c:

Ah, I see, thank you. <3 If a picture got in, would I receive notification? ^^

[DoctorDraca]

No. You would not receive a notification. But check the board and scroll through the pages, your drawing might be there. c:

No I don't, that's the puzzling issue. I draw via my laptop mouse pad and always have which is why it concerns me that it's only becoming a problem now.

[DoctorDraca]

Oh. And it doesn't do this on MS Paint or another drawing program?
Have you tried redownloading and reinstalling Java to clear the issue?

It's never given me trouble with Munro, I'll try to reinstall it.
