[Tuxpaint-users] savedir does not work

[Michael W. <mic...@co...>]

Hi everybody,

we are using tuxpaint on a debian system for a short while and learned
that the pictures are saved to the hidden folder ~/.tuxpaint/saved. I
onder why this is done? I browsed a little bit and figuered out that
this can be changed by writing a .tuxpaintrc manually. I created that
file in the home directory and added those lines:
fullscreen=native
savedir=~/pictures

I than started tuxpaint and it came up in full screen mode, so the
configuration file was read. However the pictures are still saved in
the default directory. Any ideas why this happens? 


Regards

Michael
