Hope you have a wonderful Birthday @ReMake

I'm sorry but I don't recall what it said. Obviously this Plugin is working fine in Beta, as @lynxster4 has it working, as does @Ladybug. Thank you so much @ReMake. Thank you all for helping. I'll take this up in a couple of days and try to get it working again. I have a tooth abscess at the moment 🦷 and am not feeling my best, so am a bit off my game - but I WILL get it working if it kills me 🤪 Thanks again all - you are the best 👍

Okay but what is the error?

@Pixey, place the Plugin folder in a convenient location. Open the PluginsPath.reg file in any text editor and specify the full path to the Plugin folder in the line "Path"=. In my case, it looks like this (highlighted in red. Note the double backslash): Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\FutureFantastic\GenesisVfx\2.00] "Path"="D:\\Users\\Documents\\paint.net App Files\\Effects\\Plugin" Save the PluginsPath.reg file and run it.

Oh no I didn't sorry

@HopperElec, Do you not realize you've been using a beta release of v4.2.16?

Plugins I have not tried before: Effects/Render/TRs StrangeAtrractor by @TechnoRobbo Effects/Blurs/Gradient Blocks by @pyrochild Plugins used that nonetheless deserve recognition: Adjustments/Gradient Mapping by @pyrochild Effects/Color/Metallize by @dpy Effects/Render/Spiral by @MadJik

@Pixey, that is what I understood it to be. I looked at the file to edit it but I did not have to edit it since I have my 8bf files in the directory that was already there (C:/Program Files/Paint.NET/Effects). I still ran it anyway just in case.

Surely that's the version I'm already using, which is the one with this bug I'm trying to avoid?

You can download v4.2.15 here: https://www.getpaint.net/download.html

Is there any temporary solutions? Like, is there a way to edit the file having issues to remove what is causing the issue (like fix the bit depth), or is there a way to downgrade pdn temporarily to the version I didn't have this issue in?

I've installed the beta branch as was suggested here: Can't open the XCF file found on link number 2 here: Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Não foi possível localizar o arquivo 'C:\Users\marco\AppData\Local\Temp\PDN_ImXCF27172.pdn'.

Okay, so I removed Genesis and reloaded it again. But, I'm having trouble understanding this: Edit 'PluginsPath.reg' and change the path within to point to where you put the .8bf file, then run that edited .reg file. Any help on how to do this would be appreciated - thank you 🌞

Many thanks @lynxster4 and @Ladybug for your input 👍 I checked my PSFilterPdn.dll and it's up-to-date. I'm still unable to get it to work. Grrrrrr 😜

Because it is easy to make a vertical line on a New Layer, I suspect that this would be a low priority new feature.

@Pixey I installed the Genesis VFX plugin and tried running it but it also gave me an error. I then looked at my PSFilterPdn.dll and it was dated 2016. I downloaded the new version and now Genesis works great. Not sure if this can be of help to you.

Hi, Are there any plugins for overlay style rulers, that can be turned on/off and made static at a certain measurement? if not, would it be possible to make a feature request to expand the functionality of the default rulers? Example what i'm looking for: By clicking a point on the ruler or a hot-key, a static overlay will appear and stay at that measurement until removed

Plugin never used before: @TechnoRobbo's Filament Other plugins: @xod's Image Distortion, Cells, Bevel, Drop Shadow

It's working for me @Pixey, but I'm still using 4.2.15. Haven't updated to the .16 beta yet. EDIT: Just updated to the beta and Genesis is still working for me.

Ok, I have just installed the following Windows Update KB5000842 under "other updates" and now printing from Paint.Net works 100% again, not sure if this was the one suggested, but thanks anyway if it was.

@Hoyerman, @Ripper, or @Wolla, One of you needs to substantiate your report by posting a screenshot showing that you've installed the suggested Windows Update.

Unfortunately this doesn't work for me. How I had to do it was manually duplicate all the layers and move them.

Same problem since some Windows update a few weeks ago. If its a "small" picture file it prints fine. The larger the resolution, the less of the picture it prints. I have no idea how to fix it though. I'm on the latest Windows 10 (64-bit) as well as the latest Paint.net. I actually upgraded to the latest Paint.net to try and see if it solves it, but it did not. We use two Epson Ink-Tank printers L550 and L1300. It actually shows in the print preview if its going to print correctly or not - weird indeed.
