tvpaint crashes after switching cintiq on/off

when i switched off the cintiq, the computer (a laptop) resets its screen resolution, from 2560X1440 to 1920X1080,
then when i switch it on again the resolution setting is again reversed.
But at the same time a most dreaded messeage box popped up:... tvpaint animation has stopped working.... :cry:

i had this happen before so there is definitely a correlation

in case you wonder, i switched the cintiq off by accident, the switch sits out of view on the top edge.. and responds on a light touche.

Hello Peter,

As I work on a Cintiq Companion 2, I can tell you that this issue never occur in my case.
Indeed, when I unplug a screen or a projector from my Cintig and plug it again, Windows change automaticaly its screen resolution.
And TVPaint don't have any trouble to switch the resolution.

I will try on another computer and use my Cintiq Companion 2 as another screen.
