Re: [Tuxpaint-users] cannot exit full screen mode with flatpak installation on ubuntu

[Aryeh W. <ar...@cc...>]

Thank you for your reply. I found the relevant conf file and that works.

However, now I see that while lang hebrew works for 0.9.23, it does not 
work for the flatpak distribution 0.9.27 .

Not just Hebrew -- other languages also do not work.

Best regards
