    Going to echo what baconsama said in July, if youre using wrye mash to install it may ignore the imagelib.dll file in the mod download. was having issues getting this to work, i ended up installing the standalone image magick and then manually added the imagelib.dll file and that fixed it. the imagelib.dll file should go in the Data Files\MWSE\lib in your morrowind directory as Baconsama said. Looking forward to getting started with this mod!

      You only need the imagelib.ddl, don't need to install Image Magick.

      Hoping to get the imagelib.ddl added to MWSE to get around this issue soon.

    Hello! I'm just wondering if borderless window mode is still recommended for playing this mod. And if so, should the mod still be *fairly* playable without it? I haven't gotten BW mode to work on my computer for morrowind. It's still recommended in the troubleshooting page on the mod wiki, but that also says to use imagemagick so I assume some of that info's outdated.

      The Fullscreen issue shouldn't be a problem anymore now that Image Magick is no longer being used.

    Outstanding mod!
    Sadly, my old tv\monitor dont support 16:9, so at 1366x766 in tooltip for oil and water paintings there is no place for buttons in tooltip under fog gradient. 
    Any chance for adding quick button (bind) for "paint"? I mean, thats would be awesome.

      Have you tried lowering the UI scale in MGE XE? In any case I can make it so pressing Enter triggers the paint

      No worries. Also working on a fix to put the settings inside a scrollpane if the screen is too short.

      v1.9.11 should show the paint button even on tiny screens.

    Loving the new release as always! I have however encountered small issue (or maybe a feature?) - Ink and pencil sketches are all wobbly. More importantly contrast and brightness sliders dont work at all. Is this paint skill related? I'll try to grind painting and check if anything changes but wanted to mention it in case its a but or someone else wonders. Tried reinstalling the mod, double checked requirements and all that shennanigans

      They are wobbly because your character sucks at drawing. It'll get less wobbly as your painting skill increases. This now matches how other painting styles work.

      I can't replicate the contrast/brightness controls not working, they work fine on my end. Send me your mwse.log file

      I've raised an Issue via GitHub, thank you for reaching out! Meanwhile I'll try to manually find mod that may cause conflict with joy of painting, but I have no idea which one that might be

    I love the idea of this mod, but is there any way to make it usable if one has their mouse buttons reversed?
    I have tested this by changing my Windows mouse settings to "normal", and everything works as designed.
    Once I change back to lefty mode, everything is okay until the painting menu comes up, then no key or mouse button I use will do anything except temporarily hide the menu. I can't even get out of the painting mode without completely closing the game and relaunching.
    I get it if this can't happen; I'm used to some things just not being available for me.

      Is the Paint button not visible or does clicking it not do anything?

      Everything is visible, but does not respond to any input.

    Your mods are consistently incredible. I would never imagine mods like this would exist one day when I first started playing with them back in 2005. Thank you for all of your hard work.

    Love this mod, awesome way to roleplay. I'm exerpiencing some bugs in the latest version that is crashing when rotating but also my controls freeze when finishing a painting.

    How to rename Sketchbook from inventory?
    In version 1.8.10, the menu appears only when activating Sketchbook in the world.  A viewing window opens in the inventory.
