I wouldn't call it a solution, it's a workaround: You can't pin a file to taskbar to start Paint.NET from there. You can't use your muscle memory for Ctrl+S (like I'm used to for years) for the new image, you get "Access denied" error message. Ctrl+Shift+S doesn't work me that well, I keep pressing Ctrl+Shift+D. As I wrote - it's a muscle memory. The latest file in "Most Recent" is changed to the template file. The only change required for it to work as described is ability to pick a file as default template in app's settings, everything else would remain the same. I can imagine it's easier said than done though. The "template" system have some added benefits, like you can rename the initial layer or have it transparent. Or there could be an extra option to open the last opened file instead (umm... that's probably a feature rabbit hole, as the following instant request would be to open all the files opened upon exit).

Please, is there any ETA on this for v4? I really wish for this for ages... I read somewhere it would be in the alpha of v4, but I suppose it was unofficial info

Hello Rick, for 4.0 I was really hoping for Photoshop-style picture scrolling, where I can move an edge of the picture to a center of the screen and even further. I want all four panels to be there, but they are in the way all the time, turning off and on again is pain in the butt... And I have one bugreport, I tried the latest beta on Win 8.1 Pro in VMware (see Diagnostics). (VMware, beacuse 4 replaced my v3.5.11 even I didn't want that). I was just doodling "nothing" and horizontal, vertical and later diagonal spikes appeared (instantly), see pic below. I didn't draw anything that touches the edge of the picture, just the rubbish in the middle. Hope you find it helpful.

Yes, you did Thank you! That's exactly what I needed, I've never used the Normal blending/Overwrite toggle and the Overwrite works even better otherwise - sometimes I had hard times to keep the same transparency level using blending. Thank you once again, you've just made my day! (And if there's such thing, this thread can be locked)

Hello, I'm often creating pixelart pics with transparent background using Pencil and I'd really appreciate, if as a secondary color would be an eraser (left click = drawing, right click = erasing). Is there such thing possible? I can set some color and using Magic Wand (0 % tolerance) remove it or switching between pencil and eraser by keyboard, but - you know it's not so fast 'n' convenient. I tried to search for it here, but I guess I don't have correct keywords... Thank you!
