Overview

This page is about Sugar support in Tux Paint.

Tux Paint is a drawing app for tiny kids. Most 3-year-old kids and many 2-year-old kids are able to use it, yet 10-year-old kids (and kid-like adults) enjoy it too. Tux Paint features Tux the penguin, like Clippy but not so annoying. Tux Paint uses stereo sound according to where the mouse pointer is. Tux Paint is translated into about 70 different languages, including big-alphabet and right-to-left ones.

Sugar features

The Sugar patch adds the following features:

Integrate Tux Paint window into the Sugar Shell.
Following the regular Journal paradigm, save the current drawing to the Journal on exit, and load a saved drawing on resuming its Journal object.
Use the Journal as a file picker on importing images.
