Re: Autodesk Sketchbook Pro 7 Portable

My sketchbook app freezes when i try to do something.
I have a surface go and i use it for school. Sometimes i draw stuff for fun, but a few days ago i needed to draw a logo for my class and i drained my battery dead when i was drawing. The logo got saved, but when i recharged it and launched Sketchbook app again it was just freezing. I can launch the app and draw with my pen, that is fine. But every time i do something different, it just freezes and does nothing. Like when i want to add a layer, or change a brush, or add a text, the app just freezes and does nothing. Even on my desktop where i have a GTX 1060 6G. I can trun it off but that is all. It is just frozen and stays like that.
I already tried uninstalling, dleting temp. files, updating windows and many more, but nothing works.
We all tell it to you a thousand time David. Do your job. Make a communication, sticky, to explain why the Win10 Appp doesn't work anymore and what to expect. Fix time limit with devs team.
WOW! It works. I changed my device language from Czech to English and sketchbook works normal. When I changed it back to Czech it stopped working again. Thank you for the solution, but do you know when the fix will be issued? I don't mind my device in english, but my girlfriend uses it too and she wants Czech. Will the fix be soon or do we have to wait?
I've been using it with minimal trouble, but yesterday, I was using it when my ipad ran out of power. No big deal, it's kinda an old ipad so I put it on the charger. But now, when I open the ipad to use it again, SketchBook won't open. All my other apps open with no problem. My ipad, and all my apps are current with their updates. I don't have my drawings backed up/saved cause I wasn't aware I could link them to an account until I started looking in to this issue. Is there any way I can fix this without losing all of my work?
Hello, I am new in this forum. Greetings to all, my name is David. I have the same problem with the difference that I have never been opened. I started using the iPad a few days ago and the first thing I did was download SketchBook to try it, but I've never gotten it to work. I have an iPad 2018 model: MR7F2TY/A with the iOS version: 12.3.1 (16F203)
I would greatly appreciate your help.
I've been having this issue since yesterday evening, the app just doesn't want to startup. I've used it for years before on different devices and experienced no issues whatsoever,and even used it earlier the same day and it was just fine and then, hours later, it stopped responding. I restarted the device twice, updated, ununstalled and installed the app a couple of times. And today still I can't boot it up.
My teacher told me to download sketchbook in my laptop. Well, I tried downloading it and it worked. But the problem was that I couldn't find the file. I don't think I downloaded something wrong but I really need help in this one.
So when I open sketch book (not the real version) it only shows me two pages for some reason it says I already have it downloaded so I checked files for it but I can only find it in the trash so I deleted them in the trash but it still says the same message
So I've recently downloaded the SketchBook app for windows and I had it about four times when SketchBook would just go into fullscreen mode (without me doing something particular i think) and I couldn't exit out of it. The only solution I could find was exiting SketchBook completely and then signing in again. However, this is a very annoying solution so I wanted to ask if there's another way?
Alright, so get this!
while navigating the app and this webpage, I accidentally logged out of the app. So, I signed back in, blah blah blah, and have been returning to the app frequently to see if I could get a screenshot of the recurring mishap.
It never came back! So maybe that's a reliable solution?! Sure hope so!
OK, PSYCH......
Didn't last. Here's the mishap. pardon the teeth, but notice the absence of the un-fullscreen button...intentional fullscreenunintentional fullscreen and silly picture please forgive
hi same issue. you can only exit and relaunch the app - which is frustrating (and can't undo). Yes, you can also minimize/maximize. I just got a surface pro 6 four days ago and this has happens more and more using sketchbook. Please help
I've done that twice now and it is only getting more and more common. I have realized it occurs when when I use the eyedropper (not every time). I use that tool and then after selecting a color the icons never come back and looks like the screenshot from the person above
ctrl alt J didn't work for me
EDIT: Hey! I dont know what the J is for, but ctrl alt is the color sampler, I use a touch screen laptop and I saw this when I dragged my finger around trying to see what ctrl alt J might possibly do. Sharing this so newbs like me who read this post catch on!
Assuming you are using a separate graphic tablet to use SketchBook (like I do with a Wacom One tablet), another possible solution if you prefer (like I do) the desktop application instead of the store app, is to find the SketchBook.exe executable file (normally in folder c:\Program Files\Autodesk\SketchBook ), enter its Properties with a right mouse click, go to the Compatibility tab, click on "Change high DPI settings", and check the "Override high DPI scaling behavior" box. This solved the problem for me.
An alternative (you don't need to check the above box) is to go to Settings / Personalization / Taskbar, and turn on "Show taskbar on all displays" switch, under Multiple Displays. With this alternative method the drawback is that you will have to see the taskbar on the graphic tablet.
I was going to create a whole thread just for one simple petition to Autodesk...
And I'm bumping this in order to make a question + aport something to this problem.
Petition: Make the cursor a little bit bigger and darker. Is easy to miss sometimes.
Aport: Be sure to check that the Scaling of your monitor is set to %100 if you're using double monitors and the desktop version of Sketchbook.
Thanks to Shawn Brink -taskbar-hide-show-multiple-displays-windows-8-a.html who wrote a tutorial that I used to write my script. Restating explorer.exe after each change in the registry flag renders the change visible.
The .cmd script can be pin to the taskbar only by creating a shortcut file. Here is a tutorial: -a-batch-file-to-the-start-menu-or-taskbar-in-windows-10/. I also assigned to the shortcut the same icon from the SketchBook.exe file.
Surface Book3 - Sketchbook. Wow, it was the taskbar. I set taskbar to "Do not hide" and restarted Sketchbook and everything was fine. How does "hide taskbar" relate to "pen cursor mis-alignment in sketchbook"? no connection right?
Thanks for this thread everyone, and @Anonymous especially. I was having the same issue, specifically triggered by zooming, but messing with the taskbar fixed it just as everyone else has said. Well discovered!
I find that the misalignment reoccurs whenever I cross the line between "actual size" and zoomed in. So if I'm working on actual size first, the pen will align, but then when I zoom in it will be offset. I can flip the taskbar on and off and now at any level of zoom BELOW actual size, the alignment will stay accurate. However, if I return to actual size or zoom out even farther, the alignment goes off again.
So I've been very happy hearing about how sketchbook is now free and will soon be getting a drawing tablet so I can start doing digital art. I have a pc and I tried installing Autodesk sketchbook on the Microsoft store but I couldn't open it. Apparently I needed to have specific requirements on my pc for me to open the sketchbook app.
Microsoft Store won't download apps to a Windows 10 PC (64) for a lot of people. Makes no sense but I can not download anything from the Microsoft Store. I click on "Get It" and nothing happens. This has been going on for ages despite multiple emails to Microsoft and 1000's of user complaints. Very frustrating.
Thanks Leo. Didn't know what AVA was (have since found out). I was able to download Sketchbook through an alternate download site that bypasses Microsoft Store (thankfully). All's good now. Just love Sketchbook. Thanks again for taking the time to help out.
Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ:ADSK), will collaborate with Too Corporation, the makers of the popular Copic markers, to expand the color palette and sketching capabilities of the Autodesk SketchBook Pro app for Mac and Windows desktops. The company also announced the availability of Autodesk SketchBook Pro for Android.
For the first time, artists have electronic access to the complete set of Copic markers, as well as more than 300 Copic colors available exclusively in Autodesk SketchBook Pro. With the digital pencils, pens, markers and airbrushes, together with an artist-friendly user interface available on the Autodesk SketchBook Pro app, users can draw and sketch more vivid, high-quality digital artwork with a broad spectrum of colors. The addition of the Copic marker brushes and famed Copic Color System provides illustrators with the markers they trust inside the SketchBook Pro digital painting and drawing app.
"With more and more creative professionals beginning to draw digitally, it is important for us to offer our high-quality illustrating tools for both the physical and digital canvas," said Eiichi Ishii, Chairman at Too Corporation. "Teaming with Autodesk to bring Copic markers to the digital realm, and in a way that mirrors traditional materials, was a natural decision for us."
Optimized for tablets and other large-screened devices running Android Honeycomb, the SketchBook Pro for Android app enables users to take advantage of powerful sketching tools to create quick informal sketches or produce artwork on-the-go, all from the large screen of a tablet. Autodesk SketchBook Pro for Android is the latest Autodesk app to support the popular mobile operating system following Autodesk SketchBook Mobile, which has been available for the Android platform since November 2010, and the AutoCAD WS for Android app, which launched in April.
