I have been running your activity and although I haven't tested it extensively, when I relaunch from the Journal I get the drawing I made reloaded. When I add to that drawing and save, upon relaunch, I get the aggregate drawing. What behavior would you expect otherwise? </blockquote><div> That's exactly what i wanted to do, but i can't manage : so it's the journal using that i misunderstood. However i launched it with the restart button from the journal, and even with the restart from LearningWriting option. </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"><div class="im"> > when I copy an entry from the journal to the USB key, it has the gph > extension, but it appears as empty : screen capture is a green background > (the standard background of my application).
