DevelopmentsThe new laptop has one fatal flaw.. -=-=- Although I'm slowly getting used to it, the trackpad doesn't actually have physical buttons, as such. The whole trackpad clicks down for a click, and depending on whether your finger is in the bottom right corner or not, it's either a left click or a right click. For most tasks this is mostly suitable, but for things like drag'n'dropping it's a total pain in the arse. Especially if you're trying to "Right-Drag", where things become incredibly complicated. Aside from that, pixelart has become infinitely more difficult. I keep trying to plot precise pixels, then move my thumb over to "left-click", but forgetting that the "mouse button" area is still a touchpad, so my thumb movement moves the damn pointer.. Previously that area had been a plastic physical button, so swiping my thumb over it wasn't a problem. It's something to learn. And I'm sure I will. But trying to animate Samurai Plat, yesterday, was a frustrating experience!! Daily Doodle : Captain PlatSailing the seas and killing for gold. Captain Plat and his parrot, Mrs Twinkles, rule the waves. Misc..The laptop works a treat, I guess. I complain, but it isn't too bad. At least the hard drive's nice and quick, and the Sticky Notes no longer lag. Previous Laptop : Should've been a sign!! Hard Drive Failure Imminent! -=-=- If you'd like to stuff my mailbag, (Please do!!) you can do so right here, at https://bit.ly/AGAW_Mail .
