A-EON Technology Ltd is pleased to announce a new version of PPaint 7.3c for Classic OS3 and OS4. New users: you can purchase Personal Paint download from the official PPaint.com website or AMIStore App Store. The boxed edition can be purchased directly from Amiga Kit Amiga Store.
Existing users: The update is free download for registered users of version 7.3 from Updater tool or Amisphere.com website.
* Extend internal brush structure to include shear status values so that when shearing brush twice in a row is starts from the current sheared state and not the original brush state.
* Fix incorrect calculation of visible files in builtin requester resulting in an occasional corrupt looking filename at end of file list. (personal_req.library 1.11)
* Fix (work around) extra spacing in thin gadget mode that left areas of uncleared disabled hatching when certain gadgets were enabled (button and tickbox). personal_req.library 1.12
* Fix single pixel brush "sticking" in MATTE mode after using a custom brush.
* Fix positioning of flood / fill pointer hot spot.
We would like to thank Amiga Developer team member, Andy Broad for his hard work on this update. We would also like to thank our beta testers for their valuable feedback.

I recently bought PPaint and installed in on my AmigaOS 4.1 FE system on Winuae. Unfortunately it does not work, it says 'I/O libraries not found'. I reinstalled it to a different location but get the same error :(
Anyne know how to fix this?
That's odd, usually it means it can't find or open the personal_ilbm_io.library that is the only one that is *required* all the rest are optional (though highly desirable).
Check that the PPaint directory contains. a directory called libs and that there is a file personal_ilbm_io.library there.

Has any one got PPaint 7.3c to work after installation. I have installed it and never got it work properly, it just errors out with and error : I/O libraries not found.
The libraries are there in PPaint:libs but for some reason it doesn't find them. I have reinstalled but still no luck. Any ideas?

I upgraded my older PPaint 7.3 copy with this release and all works OK (except that mysterious 2 MB Chip RAM limitation). Same config as you (WinUAE/OS4).

It is just me or PPaint 7.3c has some issues (corrupt memory and Enforcer hits) when reading current clipboard containing a clip obtained from Multiview (OS3.9+) selecting Mark/Copy when displaying BMP or PNG or other formats, on a RTG P96 3.x screen? Maybe a problem with 24/32bit conversion? I can provide repro steps and some pictures causing this issue...
EDIT: seems something old: I've been able to reproduce winuaenforcer hits and mem corruption even using PPaint 6.4 or 7.1c free if loaded through "Brush > Clipboard: Read Brush"... Try with this bunch of pics: https://1drv.ms/u/s!ApMUGr0cuN39goZHaXNEpYCgFK2Rgw?e=ebEhoK , open them through Multiview (given you have some dts installed) and from menu select Mark/Copy, then import them through PPaint "Read Brush".
