Sun 06 Mar 2011 11:56:16 PM UTC, comment #6: Yes, I think the problem is that color picking only works on the primary screen, on the secondary screen it only picks black. I have seen this with a Cintiq, but I suspect it also happens for other screens. Work-around: set the screen that you use MyPaint on to be the primary screen in the Windows control panel.

Mon 29 Nov 2010 12:30:38 AM UTC, comment #4: tumagon: What is the different in GTK versions et.c. between the beta and release of 0.9.0?	Jon Nordby <jonnor>
Sat 13 Nov 2010 11:19:30 AM UTC, comment #3: Finally color picker only works when I paint in the main screen. Not in the cintiq screen.	wong <aws357>
Sat 13 Nov 2010 10:44:13 AM UTC, comment #2: Tried the 0.9.0 beta and surprisingly the color picker works. http://download.gna.org/mypaint/mypaint-0.9.0-beta1-win32-installer.exe Hopefully it helps to solve the bug in windows vista.	wong <aws357>
Sat 13 Nov 2010 12:13:56 AM UTC, comment #1: Addendum : I'm using a cintiq 12wx with the latest drivers from wacom. Just in case.	wong <aws357>
Sat 13 Nov 2010 12:12:54 AM UTC, original submission: Using the R shortcut or the control shortcut gives the same thing. I see a black square and no changes in color. Apparently the problem also exists on mac. Tried with the gimp (AFAIK gimp uses GTK on windows?) and there is no problem to pick color in the gimp.	wong <aws357>
