## Tale 9
 

	
 
* New papyrus texture in interfaces
 
* Earth Light was replaced by Falcon's Bait mushrooms. Practical Paint still uses the name EarthLight internally, so the data files still use that name here as well.
 
* macOS is now a 64-bit app. Windows remains 32-bit due to incompatibilities with the UI library.
 
* macOS build does not support Catalina (is not notarized)
 

	
 
### Known issues
 

	
 
* Multiple screen setups requre setting the resolution to the combined resolution of all screens.
 
* UI does not lay out properly on high-density screens. Buttons and dropdowns are where they should be, but draw in the wrong place.
 

	
 
## Tale 8
 

	
 
This application has not yet been tested for Tale 8.  We will be testing it out as soon as we get our hands on a Pigment Lab.  If you find any problems with it, please [open an issue](https://bitbucket.org/Malkyne/desert-paint-lab/issues) or /chat Afrah or Snoerr
 
in the game.
 

	
 

	
 
## Directions
 

	
 
### Download Desert Paint Lab
 

	
 
You can always find the available downloads, on [the download page](https://bitbucket.org/Malkyne/desert-paint-lab/downloads).
 

	
 
The most recent version is [T9 Release 4](https://bitbucket.org/Malkyne/desert-paint-lab/downloads/DesertPaintLab_T9_V4.zip). For Mac, you can download a [dmg containing a Mac app bundle](https://bitbucket.org/Malkyne/desert-paint-lab/downloads/DesertPaintLab_T9_V4.dmg).
 
The most recent version is [T9 Release 5](https://bitbucket.org/Malkyne/desert-paint-lab/downloads/DesertPaintLab_T9_V5.zip). For Mac, you can download a [dmg containing a Mac app bundle](https://bitbucket.org/Malkyne/desert-paint-lab/downloads/DesertPaintLab_T9_V5.dmg).
 

	
 
This application should run under Mono on Mac, Linux, and Windows.  If you are on Windows,
 
and do not have Mono installed, you can install [GTK# for .NET](http://www.mono-project.com/download/#download-win),
 
without the need for installing Mono. On Mac or Linux, download and install the [Mono runtime](http://www.mono-project.com/download).
 

	
 
### Set Up a Profile
 

	
 
The first time you run Desert Paint Lab, it will prompt you to make a profile.  You may either create a new profile, or import an existing PracticalPaint reactions.txt file.
 

	
 
### Start Testing!
 

	
 
Add two ingredients to your paint bench.  Select those same ingredients in Desert Paint Lab.  Then, with the Pigment Lab dialog unobstructred, select the **Capture** button.  Once you are satisfied with the result, click the **Record** button.  The data will automatically be added to your profile.
 

	
 
### Clipped?  Huh?
 

	
 
Occasionally, you will see a warning dialog that informs you that a "Reaction clipped."  That means that one or more of the color components moved outside of the testable range.  This makes it impossible to calculate the reaction from these two ingredients.
 

	
 
You can solve this by doing a three-way test.
 

	
 
1. In your clipped reaction, let's call your **1st** ingredient **A** and your **2nd** ingredient **B**.
 
1. Select a **non-catalyst** ingredient **C** for which you have already tested **C + A** and **C + B**.  It is OK if there was a reaction in those earlier tests.  Desert Paint Lab can work out the math.
 
1. In Desert Paint Lab, select ingredients as follows:
 
    1. **C**
 
    2. **A**
