I am using Mac OS 10.5.5 G5 PPC. Java 1.5.0.16 class version 49.0. I have 1 flat screen Apple monitor and a Wacom Cintiq 21UX, effectively used as a 2 monitor setup. I deleted the previous version preference file before installing.
Am having problems with two features of the current Alpha 006.
Firstly, with the Mirror Affect, this seems to work fine until I attempt to use the Move tool to change the location of the reflection axis. When I do this, the guide crossbars appear, but I am subsequently no longer able to mark the canvas, even if I then select a different option from the Create menu. A quit and relaunch of the Alchemy application returns the other functions to normal so I can again mark the canvas, but the bug is repeatable.
Secondly, when I select View menu> Transparent Fullscreen, the item is checked in the menu, but nothing changes with the current open Alchemy document. If I then click on this again to uncheck it, the click on the View menu> Fullscreen, the document window disappears completely, along with all Alchemy menus at the top of the screen, with the exception of the Alchemy menu itself. From the Alchemy menu, I am then unable to bring up the About Alchemy or Preferences dialogue, but can Quit the application from the respective menu option. Relaunching the Alchemy application returns the interface to normal.
Possibly in connection with the above Fullscreen bug, the Console reports the following;
[0x0-0x3a03a].Alchemy[303] Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /Applications/Alchemy/Alchemy.app/Contents/Resources/Java/libAlcNative.jnilib:
