I'm not sure how to accomodate this within the .ora file itself, not without abusing it!
The most up to date version of what I am working on is now here: https://github.com/benosteen/mypaint/tree/feature%2Fscratchpad (I'll update the URLs on the videos in due course) It's now (IMHO) getting to the point of being pretty useable and I'll do a demo vid to show how it currently works. Canvas <--> pad ----------------------- As for linking a canvas with a pad - it would have to be external to .ora for the time being and what you are asking for is to keep a pad associated with a work, not a particular file (eg linked to a 'painting', rather than just '/path/foo/painting_v23.ora') This makes a lot of sense to me :) Unfortunately, the code I have already done for this links a file to a scratchpad, in a 1 to 1 fashion (a scratchpad was owned by a single file, not multiple files.) I could record the last scratchpad opened with a given file in the settings and have that persist between sessions - would that do? As the scratchpad directory is in the same directory as the configuration, this might be a suitable way to share?
