Drawpile 2.1.15 release
Dec. 7, 2019 by callaa
Version 2.1.15 is now out. This release primarily contains improvements to the server and a couple small new features to the client application.
One important new feature is support for "portable" mode. If Drawpile is started with the command line
option --portable-data-dir PATH
, it will store all its configuration in the given path. This allows you
to copy the entire Drawpile folder to a USB stick and have all your settings travel with it.
Another new feature is related to the upcoming "Communities" section on the website. There is a new
button titled "Add" in the Join dialog. When clicked, Drawpile will try to access http://SERVER-NAME/
.
If it finds a HTML <meta> tag with the name drawpile:list-server
and a URL in the content,
Drawpile will add it to the list shown in the dialog.
Server changes:
- Added support for list server API 1.6
