Ok this TRsObjectPos.zip

Trevor - I uploaded 3.03 - hopefully it fixes the problem Also - Make sure you zoom in using Alpha Cutter not PDN

try this: updated below it will find the upper left hand coordinates of the bounding box, it will give you 2 replies cause PDN calls it twice (once for the thumbnail?) but the same set of coords make sure there's no active selection it will work with PDN 4 I think It's too user specific to make it into a topic

Here it is. It's called TR's SphereCuber converts a spherical image into 6 cube image files It works great but I have to make the file save routine trap bad file names - then I'll release it but first I'll finish the Pano Viewer I also used it to make 3D paper boxes Now a Topic - http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/28104-trs-spherecuber-spherical-view-to-cube-view-converter/?p=406817

Trevor, I have a plugin ready to roll out that converts a spherical image into 6 cube image files - I used it as a testing ground for this code - that may be good for using blender. I can post it as a pre-release in this topic when I get home tonight. I never totally error trapped that interface so make sure you put in a valid output filename.

New Version of the test (1.0.0.1) was uploaded - for future compatibility you must Install the TRsPanoPDN Plugin in Effects folder and the TRPANOVIEW Viewer in the "Documents\paint.net User Files " folder.

That's fine, I'll discontinue it's use.

Quick Question for Rick: is it ok to use the InvariantStrings.EffectsSubDir string? Or will this be deprecated anytime soon?

I'm working on a panoramic Viewer called TR's PanoPDN I'm still tweaking it. Here's a pre-release version. Comments and suggestions are welcome.

that's correct actually due to the limitations of C# and the clipboard it does not use Alpha Channel it uses a Key Color - in this case it's pure white or RGB 255,255,255.

That's not my Displacement map that's Curtis black's

Thanks for the heads up, I will look into it when I get home. By the way the Pixey that crash log posted was for Curtis Black's Displacement.

Paste Fill has been updated to V 1.2 - should work quicker too.

thanks for the heads up I'll work on it.

I wrote it to be compatible with both

I misspelled sphere in config - I read the correct label in the code. I'll make a revision in the config file , plugin remains the same. You can Either re-download or change it yourself. It would work with the bad config because it will ignore the bad label and use the default. But if you don't change the Config file label for [sHERE2CUBE] to [sPHERE2CUBE] it will ignore the custom droplet and use the original. oops.

Version 1.3 ThreeSixtySrc.zip It will overwrite files with same name Config file allows you to define Droplet to use. [Krpano] C:\krpano-1.17.pr2 [Output] C:\360 [CUBE2SPHERE] Convert CUBE to SPHERE droplet.bat [SPHERE2CUBE] Convert SPHERE to CUBE droplet.bat Source Code for Programmers : ThreeSixtySrc.zip ThreeSixty.zip

Michigan and the UP - nice.

try v 1.2<newer version available>

that maybe tougher than you think since the droplets require an 8.3 naming convention - I'll have to experiment to see if I can mix an 8.3 path with a long file name.

Yes that is transparency. Without seeing the image I can't tell you for sure but my best guess is that color was white and transparent. In PDN the colors consist of 4 channels, Red Green Blue and Alpha. Alpha is the transparency channel. If Red Green and Blue are 100% and Alpha is 0% then it is white and invisible.

It looks like it can be deleted. If you import an image (Layers-> Import from File) as opposed to opening an image from the File Menu, a new layer would be created.

This is the revision - Version1.1 <removed for newer version> it contains the plugin and the config file , extract both to effects folder. the config file now looks like this try changing the output folder to something like this C:\Output if the plugin doesn't find that folder, it defaults to the Documents folder for the user This is the VS Source Code for the Curious programmers <newer version available>

Most of those steps can't be accomplished by a plugin. Macros and Droplets are in Rick Brewster's wheel house if he so chooses to add them. The Original layer cannot be replaced because the output will always be twice as wide as the input.
