# Formësim i Tux Paint-it.

A graphical tool is available that allows you to change Tux Paint's behavior. However, if you'd rather not install and use this tool, or want a better understanding of the available options, please continue reading.

# Kartelë Formësimi

You can create a simple configuration file for Tux Paint, which it will read each time you start it up.

The file is simply a plain text file containing the options you want enabled:

## Përdorues Linux-esh dhe Unix-esh

`/home/emër përdoruesi/.tuxpaintrc`

### Kartelë Formësimi Për Mbarë Sistemin

Before this file is read, a system-wide configuration file is read. (By default, this configuration has no settings enabled.) It is normally located at:

> `/etc/tuxpaint/tuxpaint.conf`

## Përdorues të MacOS-it

`/Users/emër përdoruesi/Library/Application Support/TuxPaint/tuxpaint.cfg`

### Kartelë Formësimi Për Mbarë Sistemin

Before this file is read, a system-wide configuration file is read. (By default, this configuration has no settings enabled.) It is normally located at:

> `/Library/Application Support/TuxPaint/tuxpaint.cfg`

## Përdorues Windows-i

`C:\Users\emër përdoruesi\AppData\Roaming\TuxPaint\tuxpaint.cfg`

You can use NotePad or WordPad to create this file. Be sure to save it as Plain Text, and make sure the filename doesn't have ".txt" at the end...

### Kartelë Formësimi Për Mbarë Sistemin

Before this file is read, a system-wide configuration file is read. (By default, this configuration has no settings enabled.) It is normally located at:

`C:\Program Files\TuxPaint\tuxpaint.cfg`

## Haiku Users

`/boot/home/config/settings/TuxPaint/tuxpaint.conf`

⚙ You can disable reading of this file altogether, leaving the settings as defaults (which can then be overridden by your personal config. file and/or command-line arguments) by using the command-line option "`--nosysconfig`".

# Mundësi të Gatshme

The following settings can be set in the configuration file. (Command-line settings will override these. See the "Command-Line Options" section, below.)

## Video/Tingull

### Video

`fullscreen=yes`

  Run the program in full screen mode, rather than in a window.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`fullscreen=no`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--windowed`".

`fullscreen=native`

  Run the program in full screen mode. Additionally, assume the screen's current resolution (set by the operating system).

`windowsize=MADHËSI`

  Run the program at a different size (in windowed mode) or at a different screen resolution (in fullscreen mode), rather than the default (usually 800x600).

  The MADHËSI value should be presented in pixels, in 'width-by-height' format, with an "x" (lowercase X) between the values. The size can be anything that's at least 640 wide, and at least 480 tall.

  Disa shembuj:

  - 640x480
  - 1024x768
  - 768x1024
  - 1600x1200

  💡 If only one display is available, and Tux Paint is being run in windowed (not fullscreen) mode, and the chosen window size exceeds the capabilities of the display, Tux Paint will fall back to the display's dimensions.

`orient=portrait`

  Swaps the width/height options given to Tux Paint, useful for rotating the window on portait displays, such as a tablet PC that's in tablet orientation.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`orient=landscape`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--orient=landscape`".

`native=yes`

  When running Tux Paint in fullscreen mode, this assumes the screen's current resolution (overriding any "`windowsize`" option), as set by the operating system.

`allowscreensaver=yes`

  By default, Tux Paint prevents your system's screensaver from starting up. You can override this by using the "`allowscreensaver`" option. (You can also do this by setting the "`SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER`" environment variable on your system to "`1`".)

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`allowscreensaver=no`" or "`disablescreensaver=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--disablescreensaver`".

### Tingull

`nosound=yes`

  Disable sound effects. (Note: Pressing `[Alt]` + [S] cannot be used to reenable sounds if they were disabled using this option.)

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nosound=no`" or "`sound=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--sound`".

`nostereo=yes`

  Disable stereo panning support. (Useful for users with hearing impairment in one ear, or places where a single speaker or headphone is being used.)

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nostereo=no`" or "`stereo=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--stereo`".

### Madhësi Ndërfaqeje

`buttonsize=MADHËSI`

  Set the pixel size of buttons in Tux Paint's user interface (overriding the default of "48"). Useful when using very high-density displays or coarse input devices, such as eye gaze trackers.

  The MADHËSI value should be presented in pixels, and can be anything between 24 and 192, inclusive. Most buttons are square, and this will affect their width and height.

  A value of "`auto`" may be provided, and Tux Paint will choose a suitable button size based on the size of Tux Paint's window (or fullscreen display). (For the default screen size of 800x600, it will be the default button size: "48".)

  💡 Note: If the chosen button size would cause the buttons to be too large for all required UI elements to appear under Tux Paint's chosen window size, the largest possible button size will be used. (A note will appear in `stderr`.)

`colorsrows=RRESHTA`

  How many rows of color palette buttons to show; useful when using a large color palette (see "`colorfile`", above), and/or for use with coarse input devices (like eyegaze trackers). "`RRESHTA`" may be between "1" (the default) and "3".

## Mi/Tastierë

### Kursor

`nofancycursors=yes`

  This disables the fancy mouse pointer shapes in Tux Paint, and uses your environment's normal mouse pointer.

  In some enviornments, the fancy cursors cause problems. Use this option to avoid them.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nofancycursors=no`" or "`fancycursors=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--fancycursors`".

`hidecursor=yes`

  This completely hides the mouse pointer shapes in Tux Paint.

  Kjo është e dobishme në pajisje me ekran me prekje, PC tablet, ta zëmë.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`hidecursor=no`" or "`showcursor=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--showcursor`".

### Tastierë

`noshortcuts=yes`

  This disable keyboard shortcuts (e.g., [Ctrl]-[S] for save, [Ctrl]-[N] for a new image, etc.)

  This is useful to prevent unwanted commands from being activated by children who aren't experienced with keyboards.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`noshortcuts=no`" or "`shortcuts=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--shortcuts`".

### Mi

`grab=yes`

  Tux Paint will attempt to 'grab' the mouse and keyboard, so that the mouse is confined to Tux Paint's window, and nearly all keyboard input is passed directly to it.

  This is useful to disable operating system actions that could get the user out of Tux Paint [Alt]-[Tab] window cycling, [Ctrl]-[Escape], etc. This is especially useful in fullscreen mode.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`grab=no`" or "`dontgrab=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--dontgrab`".

`nowheelmouse=yes`

  This disables support for the wheel on mice that have it. (Normally, the wheel will scroll the selector menu on the right.)

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nowheelmouse=no`" or "`wheelmouse=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--wheelmouse`".

`nobuttondistinction=yes`

  Prior to Tux Paint 0.9.15, the middle and right buttons on a mouse could also be used for clicking. In version 0.9.15, it was changed so that only the left mouse button worked, so as to not train children to use the wrong button.

  However, for children who have trouble with the mouse, this distinction between the two or three buttons on a mouse can be disabled (returning Tux Paint to its old behavior) by using this option.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nobuttondistinction=no`" or "`buttondistinction=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--buttondistinction`".

## Thjeshtim

### Thjeshtim Ndërfaqeje

`simpleshapes=yes`

  Disable the rotation step of the 'Shape' tool. Click, drag and release is all that will be needed to draw a shape.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`simpleshapes=no`" or "`complexshapes=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--complexshapes`".

`nooutlines=yes`

  In this mode, much simpler outlines and 'rubber-band' lines are displayed when using the Lines, Shapes, Stamps and Eraser tools.

  This can help when Tux Paint is run on very slow computers, or displayed on a remote X-Window display.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nooutlines=no`" or "`outlines=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--outlines`".

`uppercase=yes`

  All text will be rendered only in uppercase (e.g., "Brush" will be "BRUSH"). Useful for children who can read, but who have only learned uppercase letters so far.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`uppercase=no`" or "`mixedcase=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--mixedcase`".

### Madhësi Fillestare Stampe

`stampsize=MADHËSI`

  Use this option to force Tux Paint to set the starting size of all stamps. The `MADHËSI` value should be between 0 (smallest) and 10 (largest). The size is relative to the available sizes of the stamp, which depends on the stamp itself, and Tux Paint's current canvas size.

  Specify "`default`" to let Tux Paint decide (its standard behavior).

### Thjeshtim Kontrolli

`noquit=yes`

  Disable the on-screen "Quit" button and prevent the [Tasti Escape] key from quitting Tux Paint.

  Using the `[Alt]` + `[F4]` keyboard combination or clicking the window's close button (assuming you're not in fullscreen mode) still works to quit Tux Paint.

  You can also use the following keyboard combination to quit: [Tasti Shift] + [Tasti Kontroll] + [Tasti Escape].

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`noquit=no`" or "`quit=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--quit`".

`nostamps=yes`

  This option tells Tux Paint to not load any rubber stamp images, which in turn ends up disabling the Stamps tool.

  This can speed up Tux Paint when it first loads up, and reduce memory usage while it's running. Of course, no stamps will be available at all.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nostamps=no`" or "`stamps=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--stamps`".

`nostampcontrols=yes`

  Some images in the Stamps tool can be mirrored, flipped, and/or have their size changed. This option disables the controls, and only provides the basic stamps.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nostampcontrols=no`" or "`stampcontrols=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--stampcontrols`".

`nostamprotation=yes`

  This disables the rotation step of the Stamps tool, immediately placing the stamp in its regular orientation (with any flipping or mirroring applied) on the first click.

  📜 Note: The stamp rotation feature was added to Tux Paint in version 0.9.29.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nostamprotation=no`" or "`stamprotation=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--stamprotation`".

`nomagiccontrols=yes`

  Some Magic tools have the option of acting like a paintbrush, or affecting the entire canvas at once. This option disables the controls, and only provides the default functionality (usually paint-mode).

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nomagiccontrols=no`" or "`magiccontrols=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--magiccontrols`".

`nomagicsizes=yes`

  Some Magic tools offer various size settings. This option disables the sizing control, and only provides the tools' default sizes. (Some plugins may offer additional variations of a Magic tool, to make a few sizes possible, e.g. "Bricks" and "Googly Eyes".)

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nomagicsizes=no`" or "`magicsizes=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--magicsizes`".

`ungroupmagictools=yes`

  By default, the Magic tools in Tux Paint are organized into groups of similar tools (e.g., all of the color, saturation, darken/lighten tools together). This option removes the grouping, and places all of the tools in one long list.

  📜 Note: Magic tool groups were added in Tux Paint 0.9.27. The option to disable grouping was added to Tux Paint in version 0.9.33.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`ungroupmagictools=no`" or "`groupmagictools=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--groupmagictools`".

`noshapecontrols=yes`

  Disable the control buttons shown when using the Shapes tool that allow changing how shapes are drawn — centered around the initial mouse click, or with a corner at the initial mouse click.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`noshapecontrols=no`" or "`shapecontrols=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--shapecontrols`".

`nolabel=yes`

  Disables the Label tool: the tool that allows text entry which can be edited later.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nolabel=no`" or "`label=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--label`".

`nobrushspacing=yes`

  Disables the brush spacing option of the Paint and Lines tools. The brushes' default spacings will be used.

  📜 Note: The brush spacing option was added to Tux Paint's user interface in version 0.9.28. For more information on brush spacing, see EXTENDING.html

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nobrushspacing=no`" or "`brushspacing=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--brushspacing`".

`complexity=KOMPLEKSITET`

  Sets the complexity (expertise) level of Tux Paint, which can either disable some Magic tools, or cause them to operate differently. (For example, the "Clone" tool is not available in novice mode, and the 1-, 2-, and 3-point perspective tools do not allow vanishing points to be edited in beginner mode.)

  Vlera e `KOMPLEKSITET` mund të jetë një nga:

  `advanced` (parazgjedhja)
    "Advanced" — For users familiar with Tux Paint and who can operate more complex tools.
  `beginner`
    "Beginner" — For users comfortable with Tux Paint, but where complex tools may cause confusion or frustration.
  `novice`
    "Novice" — For first-time Tux Paint users, users inexperienced with computers, or those with special accessibility needs.

  📜 Note: The complexity option was added to Tux Paint in version 0.9.32. Consult the individual Magic tools' documentation.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`complexity=advanced`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--complexity=advanced`".

`notemplateexport=yes`

  Disables the ability to create a new Template image (based on a saved drawing) from within the Open dialog.

  📜 Note: The Template creation feature was added to Tux Paint in version 0.9.31.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`notemplateexport=no`" or "`templateexport=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--templateexport`".

`noerase=yes`

  Disables the ability to erase saved drawings via the "Erase" button on the Open dialog, or exported Template images (based on a saved drawing) via the "Erase" button on the New dialog. Useful to prevent users from erasing work, especially combined with the `--saveovernew` option.

  📜 Note: This option was added to Tux Paint in version 0.9.31.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`noerase=no`" or "`erase=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--erase`".

`--locale VENDORE`

  Run Tux Paint in one of the support languages. See the "Choosing a Different Language" section below for the locale strings (e.g., "`de_DE`" for German) to use.

  (If your locale is already set, e.g. with the "`$LANG`" environment variable, this option is not necessary, since Tux Paint honors your environment's setting, if possible.)

`mirrorstamps=yes`

  For stamps that can be mirrored, this option sets them to their mirrored shape by default.

  This can be useful for people who prefer things right-to-left, rather than left-to-right.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`mirrorstamps=no`" or "`dontmirrorstamps=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--dontmirrorstamps`".

### Shkronja

`sysfonts=yes`

  This option causes Tux Paint to attempt to load fonts (for use in the Text tool) from your operating system. Normally, Tux Paint will only load the ones that came bundled with Tux Paint.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`sysfonts=no`" or "`nosysfonts=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--nosysfonts`".

`alllocalefonts=yes`

  Prior to version 0.9.21, Tux Paint loaded all fonts in its own fonts directory, including locale-specific ones (e.g., the one for Tibetan, which had no latin characters). As of 0.9.21, the only font loaded from the locale-specific subdirectory, if any, is one matching the locale Tux Paint is running on.

  To load all locale-specific fonts (the old behavior), set this option.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`alllocalefonts=no`" or "`currentlocalefont=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--currentlocalefont`".

`uifont=EMËR LLOJI SHKRONJASH`

  This option causes Tux Paint to attempt to load fonts (for use in the Text tool) from your operating system. Normally, Tux Paint will only load the ones that came bundled with Tux Paint.

  Specify "`default`" to let Tux Paint use its default font, "DejaVu Sans" (its standard behavior).

## Shtypje

### Leje Shtypjeje

`noprint=yes`

  Çaktivizoni veçorinë e shtypjeve.

`printdelay=SEKONDA`

  Restrict printing so that printing can occur only once every SEKONDA seconds.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`printdelay=0`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--printdelay=0`".

### Shfaq Dialog Shtypësi

`altprint=always`

  This causes Tux Paint to always show the printer dialog (or, on Linux/Unix, run the "altprintcommand") when the 'Print' button is clicked. In other words, it's like clicking 'Print' while holding `[Alt]`, except you don't need to hold `[Alt]` every time.

`altprint=never`

  This prevents Tux Paint from ever showing the printer dialog (or, on Linux/Unix, run the "altprintcommand") when the 'Print' button is clicked. In other words, it makes the `[Alt]` key have no effect when clicking the 'Print' button.

`altprint=mod`

  This is the normal, default behavior. Tux Paint shows a printer dialog (or, on Linux/Unix, runs the "altprintcommand"), when the `[Alt]` key is pressed while the 'Print' button is clicked. Clicking 'Print' without holding `[Alt]` prints without showing a dialog.

### Ruaje Formësimin e Shtypësit

> `printcfg=yes`

>   (Vetëm në Windows dhe macOS)

>   Tux Paint will use a printer configuration file when printing. Push the `[Alt]` key while clicking the 'Print' button in Tux Paint to cause a Windows print dialog window to appear.

>   Any configuration changes made in this dialog will be saved to the file "`userdata/print.cfg`" , and used again, as long as the "printcfg" option is set.

>   💡 Note: This only works when not running Tux Paint in fullscreen mode.

>   ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`printcfg=no`" or "`noprintcfg=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--noprintcfg`".

### Urdhra Shtypjeje

`printcommand=URDHËR`

  (Vetëm në Linux dhe Unix)

  Use the command URDHËR to print a PostScript format file when the 'Print' button is clicked. If this option is not specifically not set, the default command is:

  > `lpr`

  📜 Note: Versions of Tux Paint prior to 0.9.15 sent PNG format data to the print command (which defaulted to "`pngtopnm | pnmtops | lpr`").

  If you set an alternative `printcommand` in the configuration file prior to version 0.9.15, you will need to change it.

`altprintcommand=URDHËR`

  (Vetëm në Linux dhe Unix)

  Use the command URDHËR to print a PostScript format file when the 'Print' button is clicked while the `[Alt]` modifier key is being held. (This is typically used for providing a print dialog, similar to when pressing `[Alt]`+'Print' in Windows and macOS.)

  If this option is not specifically not set, the default command is KDE's graphical print dialog:

  > `kprinter`

### Madhësi Letre

`papersize=MADHËSI LETRE`

  (Platforms that use Tux Paint's internal PostScript generator — not Windows, macOS, BeOS, or Haiku.)

  Tell Tux Paint what size PostScript to generate. If none is specified, Tux Paint first checks your `$PAPER` environment variable, then the file `/etc/papersize`, then uses the the 'libpaper' library's default paper size.

  Valid paper sizes include: letter, legal, tabloid, executive, note, statement, a0, a1, a2, a3, a4, a5, a6, a7, a8, a9, a10, b0, b1, b2 b3, b4, 10x14, 11x17, halfletter, halfexecutive, halfnote, folio, quarto, ledger, archA, archB, archC, archD, archE, flsa, flse, csheet, dsheet, esheet.

## Ruajtje

### Ruaje Përsipër Punës së Mëparshme

`saveover=yes`

  This disables the "Save over the old version...?" prompt when saving an existing file. With this option, the older version will always be replaced by the new version, automatically.

`saveover=new`

  This also disables the "Save over the old version...?" prompt when saving an existing file. This option, however, will always save a new file, rather than overwrite the older version.

`saveover=ask`

  (Kjo mundësi është përsëritje e panevojshme, ngaqë kjo është parazgjedhja.) When saving an existing drawing, you will be first asked whether to save over the older version or not.

### Fillimi

`startblank=yes`

  This causes Tux Paint to display a blank canvas when it first starts up, rather than loading the last image that was being edited.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`startblank=no`" or "`startlast=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--startlast`".

`newcolorslast=yes`

  Places the blank color options in the New dialog at the end, so that any Starters and/or Templates are shown first.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`newcolorslast=no`" or "`newcolorsfirst=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--newcolorsfirst`".

### Drejtori Ruajtjesh dhe Eksportimesh

`savedir=DREJTORI`

  Use this option to change where Tux Paint's "`saved`" directory/folder is located, which is where Tux Paint saves and opens pictures.

  If you do not override it, the default location is:

  Linux / Unix
    Under a hidden directory in your home directory:
    `/home/emër përdoruesi/.tuxpaint/saved/`
  Windows
    `C:\Users\emër përdoruesi\AppData\Roaming\TuxPaint\saved\`
  macOS
    `/Users/emër përdoruesi/Library/Application Support/TuxPaint/saved/`
  Haiku
    `/boot/home/config/settings/TuxPaint/saved/`

  💡 Note: When specifying a Windows drive (e.g., "`H:\`"), you must also specify a subdirectory.

  📜 Note: Prior to version 0.9.18, Tux Paint would also use the setting or default for "`savedir`" as the place to search for personal data files (brushes, stamps, starters and fonts). As of version 0.9.18, they may be specified separately (see the "`datadir`" option, below).

  Shembull: `savedir=Z:\tuxpaint\`

`exportdir=DREJTORI`

  Use this option to change where Tux Paint exports files — single images, or animated GIF slideshows — for external use.

  If you do not override it, the default location is:

  - Linux & Unix — If available, wherever your desktop environment is configured for pictures to be stored, based on your XDG (X Desktop Group) configuration. (Try running the command-line "`xdg-user-dir PICTURES`" to find out.)
    Typically (in an English locale), this will be a "`Foto`" subdirectory in your home directory (i.e., "`/home/emër përdoruesi/Foto`").
    Tux Paint will fall back to using that typical directory, if no XDG configuration can be read, or nothing is set for "`XDG_PICTURES_DIR`".
  - Windows - "`My Pictures`" directory for each user (normaly "`C:\Users\emër përdoruesi\My Pictures`")
    You can directly open the folder as follows:
    - Shtypni “[Windows]+[R]”" që të hapet dialogu “Xhironi …”.
    - Enter "Shell:My Pictures" in the text box and push [OK].
  - macOS — TBD!

  💡 Note: When the defaults are used, a new "`TuxPaint`" subdirectory will be created and used. (e.g., "`/home/emër përdoruesi/Foto/TuxPaint`") When the "`--exportdir`" option is used, the exact path specified will be used (no "`TuxPaint`" subdirectory is created).

  The directory itself (e.g., "`/home/emër përdoruesi/Foto/TuxPaint`") will be created, if it doesn't exist.

  If the parent directory (e.g., "`/home/emër përdoruesi/Foto`") also does not exist, Tux Paint will attempt to create it as well (but not any directories higher than that).

  Shembull: `exportdir=/home/penguin/TuxPaintExports`

### Më Tepër Mundësi Ruajtjesh

`nosave=yes`

  This disables Tux Paint's ability to save files (and therefore disables the on-screen "Save" button). It can be used in situations where the program is only being used for fun, or in a test environment.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nosave=no`" or "`save=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--save`".

`autosave=yes`

  This prevents Tux Paint from asking whether you want to save the current picture when quitting, and assumes you do.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`autosave=no`" or "`noautosave=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--noautosave`".

`reversesort=yes`

  This reverses the sorting of the Open and Slideshow dialogs, placing the newest images at the top of the list.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`reversesort=no`" or "`noreversesort=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--noreversesort`".

## Të dhëna

### Lockfile

`nolockfile=yes`

  By default, Tux Paint uses what's known as a 'lockfile' to prevent it from being launched more than once in 30 seconds. (This is to avoid accidentally running multiple copies; for example, by double-clicking a single-click launcher, or simply impatiently clicking the icon multiple times.)

  To make Tux Paint ignore the lockfile, allowing it to run again, even if it was just launched less than 30 seconds ago, enable this setting in the configuration file, or run Tux Paint with the `--nolockfile` option on the command-line.

  By default, the lockfile is stored in "`~/.tuxpaint/`" under Linux and Unix, and "`userdata\`" under Windows.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`nolockfile=no`" or "`lockfile=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--lockfile`".

### Drejtori të Dhënash

`datadir=DREJTORI`

  Use this option to change where Tux Paint looks for personal data files (brushes, stamps, starters, templates, and fonts specific to the current user).

  Tux Paint will search for subdirectories/subfolders named "`brushes`", "`stamps`", "`starters`", "`templates`", and "`fonts`" under the specified data directory.

  If you do not override it, the default location is:

  Linux / Unix
    `/home/emër përdoruesi/.tuxpaint/`
  Windows
    `C:\Users\emër përdoruesi\AppData\Roaming\TuxPaint\`
  macoS
    `/Users/emër përdoruesi/Library/Application Support/TuxPaint/`

  📜 Note: Prior to version 0.9.18, Tux Paint would use the same setting or default as for "`savedir`" to search for data files. As of version 0.9.18, they may be specified separately.

  💡 Note: When specifying a Windows drive (e.g., "`H:\`"), you must also specify a subdirectory.

  Shembull: `datadir=/home/johnny/tuxpaint-data/`

### Kartelë Palete Ngjyrash

`colorfile=EMËR KARTELE`

  You may override Tux Paint's default color palette by creating a plain ASCII text file that describes the colors you want, and pointing to that file using the "`colorfile`" option.

  The file should list one color per line. Colors are defined in terms of their Red, Green and Blue values, each from 0 (off) to 255 (brightest). (For more information, try Wikipedia's "RGB color model" article.)

  Colors may be listed using three decimal numbers (e.g., "`255 68 136`") or a 6- or 3-digit-long hexadecimal 'triplet' (e.g., "`#ff4488`" or "`#F48`").

  After the color definition (on the same line) you may enter text to describe the color. Tux will display this text when the color is clicked. (For example, "`#FFF E bardhë si bora.`")

  As an example, you can see the default colors currently used in Tux Paint in: "`default_colors.txt`".

  NOTES: You must separate decimal values with spaces, and begin hexadecimal values with a pound/number-sign character ("`#`"). In 3-digit hexadecimal, each digit is used for both the high and low halves of the byte, so "`#FFF`" is the same as "`#FFFFFF`", not "`#F0F0F0`".

## Përdorim Nga Persona Me Aftësi të Kufizuara

### Mi

`mouse-accessibility=yes`

  Nën këtë mënyrë, në vend të klikimit, tërheqjes dhe lënies (p.sh., për të vizatuar), ju klikoni, lëvizni dhe klikoni sërish në fund të lëvizjes.

### Tastierë

`keyboard=yes`

  Kjo lejon të përdoren tastet shigjetë të tastierës për të kontrolluar lëvizjen e treguesit të miut (p.sh., për mjedise pa mi, ose për raste invaliditeti/përdorimi nga persona me aftësi të kufizuara)

  Veçori:

  - Fine movement within canvas, or coarse movement if `Shift` is held.
  - Coarse movement within tool button areas.
  - Kontrolle me taste:
    - [Left]/[Right]/[Up]/[Down], numpad [1] thru [9]: Move mouse
    - [Space]/[5]: Click mouse (except when using "Text" or "Label" tools)
    - [Insert]/[F5]: Klikoni me mi (përherë)
    - [F4] jump mouse between "Tools", "Colors" and canvas areas
    - If mouse is within "Tools" section on the left, or "Colors" section at the bottom:
      - [F7], [F8]: Move down/up between buttons, respectively (Tools section, only)
      - [F11], [F12]: Move to previous/next button, respectively
  - To click-and-drag, hold one of the 'click' keys (e.g., [Insert]), and use the movement keys (e.g., [Left]).

    💡 Note: The "mouse accessibility" feature works with the keyboard mouse controls. With both options enabled, painting tools can be used to draw by pressing a 'click' key to start clicking, movement keys to move around (which will draw), and another 'click' key to end the click (stop drawing).

  - A regular mouse and/or joystick may still be used (so you can, e.g., move with the mouse, and click with the keyboard, or vice-versa)

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`keyboard=no`" or "`mouse=yes`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--mouse`".

### Tastierë Në Ekran

`onscreen-keyboard=yes`

  Presents a clickable on-screen keyboard when using the Text and Label tools.

`onscreen-keyboard-layout=LAYOUTNAME`

  Selects the initial layout for the on-screen keyboard when using the Text and Label tools.
  Note: Using this option implies automatically onscreen-keyboard=yes, so setting both is redundant.

`onscreen-keyboard-disable-change=yes`

  Disables the possibility for changing the layout of the on-screen keyboard when using the Text and Label tools, useful for simplifying things for the small children.
  Note: Using this option implies automatically onscreen-keyboard=yes, so setting both is redundant.

  ⚙ Note: If used in a system-wide configuration file, may be overridden by the user's configuration file using "`onscreen-keyboard-disable-change=no`". In both cases, may be overridden by the command-line option "`--onscreen-keyboard-disable-change=no`".

## Joystick

### Pajisja Kryesore

`joystick-dev=N`

  Specify which joystick device should be used by Tux Paint. Default value is 0 (the first joystick).

`joystick-slowness=SHPEJTËSI`

  Sets a delay at each axis motion, allowing to slow the joystick. Allowed values are from 0 to 500. Default value is 15.

`joystick-threshold=PRAG`

  Sets the minimum level of axis motion to start moving the pointer. Allowed values are from 0 to 32766. Default value is 3200.

`joystick-maxsteps=HAPA`

`joystick-hat-timeout=MILISEKONDA`

  Sets the delay after wich the pointer will start moving automatically if the hat is keeped pushed. Allowed values are from 0 to 3000. Default value is 1000.

### Butona për T’u Çaktivizuar

`joystick-buttons-ignore=BUTTON1,BUTTON2,...`

  A set of joystick button numbers, as seen by SDL, that should be ignored. Otherwise, unless they are used by one of the "`joystick-btn-`" options above, buttons will be seen as a mouse left-click.

# Anashkalim Mundësish të Formësimit të Ssistemit

If any of the above options are set in a system-wide configuration file (e.g. "`/etc/tuxpaint/tuxpaint.conf`" on Linux), you may override them in your own personal configuration file (e.g. "`/home/emër përdoruesi/.tuxpaintrc`")

For true/false options, like "`noprint`" and "`grab`", you can simply say they equal 'no' in your personal configuration file:

> `noprint=no
> uppercase=no`

Or, you can use options similar to the command-line override options described below. For example:

> `print=yes
> mixedcase=yes`

# Zgjedhja e një Gjuhe Tjetër

Tux Paint has been translated into a number of languages. To access the translations, you can use the "`--lang`" option on the command-line to set the language (e.g. "`--lang spanish`") or use the "`lang=`" setting in the configuration file (e.g., "`lang=spanish`").

Tux Paint also honors your environment's current locale. (You can override it on the command-line using the "`--locale`" option; see above.)

Use the option "`--lang help`" to list the language options available.

(*) - These languages require their own fonts, since they are not represented using a Latin character set, like the others. See the "Special Fonts" section, below.

💡 Note: Tux Paint provides an alternative input method for entering characters with the Text tool in some locales. The key comibation(s) listed can be used to cycle through the supported input methods while the Text tool is active.

Changing your locale will affect much of your environment.

As stated above, along with letting you choose the language at runtime using command-line options ("`--lang`" and "`--locale`"), Tux Paint honors the global locale setting in your environment.

If you haven't already set your environment's locale, the following will briefly explain how:

### Përdorues të Linux-it/Unix-it

First, be sure the locale you want to use is enabled by editing the file "`/etc/locale.gen`" on your system and then running the program "`locale-gen`" as root.

💡 Note: Debian users may be able to simply run the command "`dpkg-reconfigure locales`" as root to bring up a configuration dialog. Ubuntu users may be able to run "`sudo dpkg-reconfigure localeconf`" (the "localeconf" package may need to be installed first), or you may need to edit the file "`/var/lib/locales/supported.d/local`" first, and add locales they want, from the list found in "`/usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED`".

Then, before running Tux Paint, set your "`$LANG`" environment variable to one of the locales listed above. (If you want all programs that can be translated to be, you may wish to place the following in your login script; e.g. "`~/.profile`", "`~/.bashrc`", "`~/.cshrc`", etc.)

For example, in a Bourne Shell (like BASH):

> `export LANG=es_ES ; \
> tuxpaint`

Dhe në një shell C (TCSH, ta zëmë):

> `setenv LANG es_ES ; \
> tuxpaint`

### Përdorues Windows-i

Tux Paint will recognize the current locale and use the appropriate files by default. So this section is only for people trying different languages.

The simplest thing to do is to use the "`--lang`" switch in the shortcut (see "INSTALL"). However, by using an MSDOS Prompt window, it is also possible to issue a command like this:

> `set LANG=es_ES`

...which will set the language for the lifetime of that DOS window.

For something more permanent, you can set an 'environment variable' using the "Veti sistemi" dialogue as follows:

- Shtypni ndërthurjen e tasteve “[Windows]+[R]”" që të hapet dialogu “Xhironi …”.
- Enter "`sysdm.cpl`" in the text box and click the "[OK]" button to open the "Veti sistemi" dialogue.
- Përzgjidhni skedën “Të mëtejshme”.
- Klikoni butonin “Ndryshore Mjedisi…”.
- Edit the value of the parameter "`LANG`" (create it, if it doesn't exists).

## Shkronja Speciale

Some languages require special fonts be installed. These font files (which are in TrueType format (TTF)), are much too large to include with the Tux Paint download, and are available separately. (See the table above, under the "Choosing a Different Language" section.)

📜 Note: As of version 0.9.18, Tux Paint uses the "SDL_Pango" library, which utilizes the "Pango" library to render text in the user interface, rather than using "SDL_ttf" directly. Unless your copy of Tux Paint was built without Pango support, special fonts should no longer be necessary.

When running Tux Paint in a language that requires its own font, Tux Paint will try to load the font file from its system-wide "`fonts`" directory (under a "`locale`" subdirectory). The name of the file corresponds to the first two letters in the 'locale' code of the language (e.g., "ko" for Korean, "ja" for Japanese, "zh_tw" for Traditional Chinese).

For example, under Linux or Unix, when Tux Paint is run in Korean (e.g., with the option "`--lang korean`"), Tux Paint will attempt to load the following font file:

> `/usr/share/tuxpaint/fonts/locale/ko.ttf`

You can download fonts for supported languages from Tux Paint's website, https://tuxpaint.org/. (Look in the 'Fonts' section under 'Download.')

Under Unix and Linux, you can use the `Makefile` that comes with the font to install the font in the appropriate location.
