Stereoscope Paint
Submitted by Tim Pritlove on 25. September 2008 - 5:55
We have added another tool to create simple animations for Stereoscope. Following in the footsteps of BlinkenPaint (for Blinkenlights) and ArcadePaint (for Arcade) we provide you with Stereoscope Paint.
Stereoscope Paint is limited to the two top screens of the building (because the lower parts are partly obscured by the building itself). And you can only target one of two screens at a time. Once you have finished an animation you can save it as a file and submit it. We will post the submission form later on as it is not yet finished.

Great stuff!
On OSX 10.5.5 (Intel) Stereoscope Paint won't quit and the only way to quit is to kill it.
@Mac Steve: Well it does work on 10.5.5 Intel at least on our systems so far. Do you experience this behaviour every time you start it? Does it refuse to quit right after launch or working with it for a while?
I can confirm that it works well on 10.5.5 without any probems.
sorry for the lazy bug report (still on 10.5.5 Intel, 3Ghz, 4GB RAM):
I now tried it on different accounts (admin, standard), in different places (desktop, /applications) and under different language settings of the OS (de, en). It would never quit via menu, always had to kill it.
It doesn't quit no matter how long it stays open or has been used or if I saved a .bml file.
Only difference to your system might be that I don't have dev tools installed on this machine.
It won't quite for me either. Also, the StereoScope simulator crashes upon launch.
I remember this " won't quit via menu"-bug to be present in the other *paint-apps in the past as well.
I think it is something related to Director, with which this application was done.
In the end, something one can live with ...I guess.
Well FWIW, BlinkenPaint 3.12 "Haus des Lehrers" (based on Director 9) quits just fine.
So yes, lets not forget that the apps run as expected an we are indeed talking minor issues here.
Hope all goes well in the real building in the meantime, keep my fingers crossed.
