KanvasBuddy - a Minimalist Toolbar

Hi guys, is there a way to put this scroll menu button to the top of the window? [Unnamed]

[Michelist]

I haven’t looked at the fix yet, but moving the button to the top row should be doable. As far as I remember correctly it just needs to be placed in a file in a different location and I think it was the “kanvasbuddy.ini”, I’ll check after I get back from the hospital.

[Labi]

cool thanks

[Mythmaker]

I haven’t fixed anything - only figured out where the error was. I’ll see if I can get the functionality back, but I’m not a coder so can only do the intuitive stuff i.e. extrapolate, copy and paste!

I’m not sure how to make that change your asking about - but hopefully Michelist can figure it out!

[Michelist]

Oops 1, with Labi’s joyful question I thought there would be a fix - too bad, but maybe there will be one day (probably not from me, but who knows)?

Oops 2, I should have looked at Labi’s picture first. No I can’t move this button so easily (yet?), at least not off the top of my head.
But it is possible to swap the buttons of the lower and the upper row(s), but for Labi’s wish from his photo you have to “dig deeper” - well, maybe I’ll find it anyway.

But now I have to sleep, in 4 hours I will be woken up, two hours after that I will be picked up by the ambulance and after another hour I will lie, under general anesthesia, on the operating table.

Bye, see you soon, I’ll report back here on KA when I can think clearly again.

[Labi]

ok, thank you
its not urgent.
Good luck with your operation!!!.
Cheers!!!

I made a few minor modifications and now it works

I leave the patch: KanvasBuddy - patch

[Labi]

cool thanks!

[Labi]

could you make this???

I’ll ask a friend who knows python for help

[Labi]

cool thanks!

Hello, I’m testing it (very cool even in regular mode as quick settings docker is much to big to my opinion) but in the new beta Krita 5.0, it crashes.

[Michelist]

If you had read this topic completely, you would know that this plugin works only with the help of a small patch in Krita 5.

To find this patch it was enough to scroll up 5 posts…

With the files included in the patch archive you have to overwrite the two files in the installed KanvasBuddy directory which you can find in the resources’ folder named “pykrita”. After you applied the patch, you can start Krita, and KanvasBuddy should work as before.

Thanks a lot. But as KanvasBuddy is on Github, I supposed this kind of patch would have been integrated in the files - or proposed as new pack.
I wrote here a long text about how it is quite difficult for a newbie to manage informations about such plugins but I don’t want to be considered as a troll - and I respect the hard work from the developers. I will try to found a solution to help noobs like me discovering Krita’s plugins.

[SchrodingerCat]

Oh well Kapyia is the original plugin developer and is not active, so that’s why there are no plugin updates on github.

[Skyat]

Hi, I am not really knowledgeable regarding scripting but I wanted to ask if it is currently possible to get kanvasbuddy for krita on tablets(mobile). As far as I see scripting isn’t implemented there, right?

[TheTwo]

Help with that question.

Thanks for the ping Grum! Currently, there is no way to install plugins on Android, I’m afraid. Python does support Android, it is just something that nobody has tried to get working for Krita, yet. Do you happen to use the Nightly build of Krita? This four-finger tap gesture is only present in it. You can enter and exit canvas-only mode with it. Mobile experience is pretty bad presently. There are some things which were implemented recently for ChromeOS like moving/resizing dialogs, mmaaaay…

Sorry if this ends up as a bit of a big post, but I’m stumped trying to add freehand selection to panel section, and deselect to canvas section. Was able to add in reset rotation and preserve alpha, and they work fine, only because of, thankfully, the answers being in this thread.

Looked at example script on github, and also at script school, but can’t fix it.

Not sure if the following is right re HSV either, which hope to add …
},
“HSV Adjustment”: {
“id”: “krita_filter_hsvadjustment”,
“icon”: “HSV Adjustment”

Haven’t added error message, as this post is really large, plus have removed all but the deselect attempt at this point, so the only error message would be regarding that, which I can add if wanted below, if nothing obvious is spotted in the code have added.

[redrobin]

Unfortunately my very first experience with the plugin results in an error message.
Also following manual instructions of pasting archive content in PyKrita folder didn’t seem to work, only showed once I ran script from Krita menu tool …
