Ahh - I thought you wanted to make a plugin image/interface. If you are looking on how to make buttons, there is a tutorial here. The PDF should still have the original pictures intact. It may be a good idea to take a look in the Tutorials thread, on how to make things using Paint.net

Thanks Pixey for your answer, but I think there is a misunderstood.. why should I learn how to code a plug-in ? This is not my target at the moment. I just need some hint on about how to draw a panel like that in the first picture, and use some plug-in to better accomplish such a task.. Sorry if my question was not clear enough. My goal is to draw a panel that resembles the one in the picture ( is a screenshot of the game "Command and Conquer" ). Actually I'm developing a similar game, and I would like to learn how to use Paint.net and its plugins, in order to draw a panel like that 😉

Pixey started following UI Panel - how to do it ?

You would first have to learn how to use/write code. Please read here: https://boltbait.com/pdn/CodeLab/help/tutorial.php

Then you will need to download it from here: https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/16643-dpys-plugin-pack-2014-05-04/

Black & white Alpha
americanpaddy replied to americanpaddy's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
It's the Black & White Alpha+ that's missing --- I often used it. I went from 5.0.9 to 13 and saw the change. -
Dear all, I would like to draw an UI-Panel like the one in the picture (right side), from within the player can choose units. I'm quite new about Paint.net, and what I really need is someone that takes my hand and point me toward the plugins/techniques I could use in order to make such a panel, such bevel, emboss, buttonize, gradient, and the likes. Right now I can design it with the shape tool, but the result is waaay far from what I would like - it should not be exactly the same, but at least be appealing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your attention, Sergio My (miserable) attempt:

Those could easily just be left over from old versions from when they were current -

[BUG] not saving any items in 'Open Recent'
Ltek replied to Ltek's topic in Troubleshooting & Bug Reports
I've been on 5.0.13 ... if I remember correctly, it prompted me to update and I was only 1 release back atthat point also. The Windows add/remove panel shows it was installed 3-11-2024 reinstalling now -
I don't know what the encoder does to those channels, you should as the AOM developers about that. For color images, the plugin converts the RGB input to YCbCr. For monochrome/grayscale images, the plugin sets the Y channel to the grayscale value and sets Cb and Cr to a constant value to improve compression (the exact value doesn't matter as the decoder will only read data from the Y channel).

Essentially I'm working on a map project, and part of it is a height map overlay. I want to change to a new projection but the height map has a different color scheme (off-color file) that isn't the pure white and black as the previous height map for the other projection. When I try to layer the new one using the multiply layer tool, the resulting image is significantly darker, as opposed to the previous projection overlay, which would not darken the image at all except for adding definition to mountains. So, how can I change the color scheme of one png to match the other? If it's possible?

Make sure you are installing version 5.0.13. Looking at your registry keys, your present version seems well out of date. -
paint.net installation error 1618
Rick Brewster replied to timber_ridge's topic in Troubleshooting & Bug Reports
I would not go exploring the registry and deleting things. That is often a recipe for making things worse. -

What version of Paint.NET are you on though? -

That's odd. You should have registry keys for: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\paint.net\ File/MostRecent/Path0 .. 9 File/MostRecent/Thumbnail0 .. 9 File/MostRecent/ThumbnailDpi0 .. 9 Looking at the key Updates/LastCheckTimeUtc with value 637777865591369352, it seems that the last time you used this version and it did an update check was 2022-01-14 19:49:19 Did you once have the installer version of paint.net, which uses the Registry, but since then have used only the portable version, which does not use the registry? -

Used several version of Paint.net over the last year or so -- I'm a casual user so only use it once a month or so. None of the versions have ever populated 'Recent' files ( File -> Open Recent)? Registry doesn't look like it has any keys for it.

When compressing AVIF images using Paint.net, does the encoder process the Cb and Cr components separately or are they compressed identically? Thanks for your reply!
