Layer panel: flip eye+lock and type icons around … 

Putting the eye and lock icons on the left (for ltr languages) is closer to
other art apps.

I had my doubts about doing this during string freeze, but I guess for a
sensible layout, you don't need fancy multi-cell columns after all. So no
string changes needed :)

Second advantage: this makes Adwaita's new (and horrid) mystery meat
scrollbars break things much less. There's almost no need to click on the
type icon for a layer, so it doesn't really matter when the scrollbar fades
in above it. Before we had the lock icons on that side, and it was
difficult to click on them when there were enough layers in the stack to
require a scrollbar.

Closes mypaint/mypaint#144.

MyPaint

Translation Status Build Status

MyPaint is a simple drawing and painting program that works well with Wacom-style graphics tablets. Its main features are a highly configurable brush engine, speed, and a fullscreen mode which allows artists to fully immerse themselves in their work.

MyPaint is written in Python, C++, and C. It makes use of the GTK toolkit, version 3.x. The source is maintained using git, primarily on Github.

Getting started

MyPaint has an associated library, libmypaint, which is distributed as a sister project on Github. If you fetch the application's source with git, this dependency will be fetched automatically by the commands below as a relative submodule. There are several third-party dependencies too:

  • scons (>= 2.1.0)
  • pygobject
  • gtk3 (>= 3.10)
  • python (= 2.7) (OSX: python >= 2.7.4)
  • swig
  • numpy
  • pycairo (>= 1.4)
  • libpng
  • lcms2
  • libjson-c (>= 0.11, but the older "libjson" name at ~0.10 will work too)
  • librsvg

Recommended: a pressure sensitive input device (graphic tablet)

Build and Install

All systems differ. The basic build documentation is divided by broad class of operating system and software distribution.
