MadJik Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Reverse Color Effect Plugin What's this? This is a plugin to reverse separately the value of each RGBA channel. This was firstly made to reverse the alpha channel to obtain some nice effect with transparent rendered textures or objects. And I decided to extend to the other RGB channels... Download it! Plugin reversecolor.dll Here is the DLL Created with CodeLab... The MadJik's All plugins package is available ! http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?showtopic=7186 How to install Close Paint.net Classic version of Paint.net Unzip and (re)place the DLL in your Effect folder usually: C:/Program Files/Paint.NET/Effects Microsoft Store version of Paint.net Unzip and (re)place the DLL in your Effect folder usually: /My Documents/paint.net App Files/Effects/ You have to adapt for your language My Documents The User interface This plugin is added to the menu Effects, submenu Color. Inverse Red/Green/Blue/Alpha: ...check the box to reverse the desired channel. Minimum Red/Green/Blue/Alpha: ...choose the minimum value. If the channel value is lower then the channel doesn't change else the value is reversed. Maximum Red/Green/Blue/Alpha: ...choose the maximum value. If the channel value is higher then the channel doesn't change else the value is reversed. So to be reversed a value must be in the range Minimum, Maximum. The Examples: This is some guide lines on how to use this (and what for): Example A: A.1. On a new image with white background, add a new layer. A.2. Run the kaleidogen A.3.a If you run the Reverse color effect and set the minimum alpha to 20-60... A.3.b Or if you run the Reverse color effect with these settings... A.3.c Or if you run the Reverse color effect with these settings... Example B: B.1. On a new image with white background, add a new layer. B.2. Set the primary color to Black and the secondary color to transparent: B.3. Create some (radial) gradients: B.4.a If you run the Reverse color effect with these settings... B.4.b Change the background to black. Then if you run the Reverse color effect with these settings... Example C: C.1. On a new image with black background, add a new layer. C.2. Run the render effect roses C.3.a If you run the Reverse color effect and set the range for alpha to 50-120... C.3.b Or if you run the Reverse color effect with these settings... Voilà !

Djisves Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I downloaded it and I can't wait to start playing with it. Your Example B.4.b gave me the idea that it could be useful in certain situations that may otherwise require the use of Conditional Hue/Saturation that I could never master.
