When I set brush widths to 16, 17, 18, or 19 and then press the arrow on the drop down box the bush width within the drop down box changes to some multiple, for example 18 becomes 1800, 19 becomes 1900.. 17 changes to 175, but 16 changes to 1600. This is repeatable by the following sequence: 1 set bush width to 15 with the drop down box 2 use the + key to bump the bush width up to 16 3 press down arrow in drop down box 4 the drop down box window displays 1600 instead of 16. The same with the others I mentioned except 17 changes to 175.

I posted a bug report on May 1, 2016. This provides more information about that as follows The original: "When attempting to use color picker to sample color on screen, if the cursor is not completely within bounds of the screen, a crash occurs. This usually happens when sampling is set to some larger array of pixels. It probably happens even if set to 3 x 3 pixels but it is more difficult to be partially off screen on the level. However, with larger sampling arrays I have several times accidentally allowed the cursor to be outside of the screen bounds and a crash occurs every time. This is a repeatable problem. Just put sampling on 31 x 31 or 51 x 51 and click when the cursor is partially off screen. A crash occurs every time. John Murphy (a grateful user)" I have found that if the color picker is off-canvas at the top or sides the problem does not happen. But when the color picker pointer is overlapping at the bottom of the canvas, where part of the pointer is on the canvas and part is below the canvas, paint.net crashes, for me every time I try it. The attached file shows a typical position of the color tool cursor when the crash occurs. The large cursor is to make it more visible.

Yes, it's from me about the Color Picker off-screen problem. You asked about size. I usually use 1200 for width and height anywhere from 700 to 2000. However, I had several layers also.

Yes, how do I get it to you?

I often screw up and modify the wrong layer, one I didn't want to change. This happens when a layer becomes active without my realizing it or I activate say layer3, for example, to make a quick change with the intention of going back to layer2 and activating it and continuing on. Sometimes when this happens I have to undo a bunch of time or start over. Is there any way to prevent this? I looked but could not find a feature request for this. Thanks
