Congratulations!

22

Definitely interested in your 64bit windows builds, but can’t try them out for a few weeks.

23

@partha please make them available if they’ve been tested, then I will upload a copy to the website. I saw people asking for them on reddit.

24

@Morgan_Hardwood, The reason I asked people to contact me is to get volunteers to test. Hopefully they can test and report back to me so that I can fix issues.

Here they are:

@partha,

Thanks for the portable version!
The links are not working.

@dngimage,

Yes, I know. my website is down. The host company is working diligently to get it up and running.

Thanks for your patience,
Partha

27

Sounds good @Partha. Thanks!

Could you explain the advantage over http://rawpedia.rawtherapee.com/Making_a_Portable_Installation.
Thank you

@gaaned92, Well for one, someone has done the work for you, :slight_smile:
Also, it is self contained and includes the option and cache folders within the installation. You unpack the 7z exe file and away you go.

As I said, I made it to test a portable environment. You are free to follow the instructions you posted and build your own. :slight_smile:

Thanks,
Partha

Thanks for your patience.

I did a quick test of your portable Gtk3 version. The only issue I’ve found are the missing arrows in front of the folders.

32

Hi @partha,

The portable Gtk3 version is running fine here, great job. One issue I’ve found is that when I double click on folders they don’t expand. It works fine if I use the keyboard (hit the “+” key).

Other than that it looks great!

33

@dngimage, @TooWaBoo, yes, I seem to be suffering from the missing arrow syndrome. :slight_smile:

Just imagine the arrow next to the folder and click just left of the folder. It should work.

I have not been able to figure it out on Windows or OSX. :frowning:

34

Well, it seems I’m a little late to the party, but as a long term RT user, a big thanks to the devs and support team around building and making RT widely available to us. I’ve used it a lot on Windows and after the pain of Win10 I’m back on Linux (Gnome Ubuntu) as my primary OS and it’s just a joy to “apt update apt upgrade” and see the latest version come down.

:slight_smile:

I’ve found the reason for your missing arrow syndrome. :slight_smile:

I’ve deleted(!!!) the folder icons in “gtk3\Frameworks\share” and copied the folder icons from my standard installation (…RawTherapee\share) to “gtk3\RT\share” and voilà, the arrows appear.

Are the builds good, have they been tested? Are the arrows in the file browser missing?

38

Yes, the arrows are missing. That’s the only issue I’ve found compared to the standard installation.

39

And only on the gtk3 build btw.

Hi Partha,

Just tried your portable gtk3 version on a Windows 7 Professional machine. It doesn’t start and gets in an infinite loop, due to a missing dll: librsvg2,2. Looked into the zip file, but it wasn’t there. I got it from another place, copied in the bin directory of RT and now it starts. Apart from the missing arrows, everything works fine.

Can you also make a link to your portable Gimp gimp2.9-cc as standard in the Preferences?

I only use this when I with someone I want to demonstrate the capabilities of those (and other open source software) and there is only a Windows machine available (even my laptop is equiped with linux).
