  1. I have now.  Yes, the Single-Slider version works very well.

     

    Thank you.  I need to remember to read things closely.  The first time I read this thread, I was unaware of the IndirectUI API.  When I learned of this API, I never connected it back to the notes in the first post of this thread.

     

     

    I didn't expect that you really may change the resolution just to get it o run. Sorry.

     

    The author metioned an IndirectUI version in the first post. Did you try this version too?

  2. Thank you for the suggestion.  However, it did not really work for me.  The dialog box appears larger, but the overlap of the individual controls is still the same and I cannot adjust each one.  Just a larger version of what I posted above.

     

    I see that Cookies has not been around here for several months.  So I guess he is not going to update the plug-in to use the proper API.

     

    Maybe someone else will.

     

    Switch your screen resolution from 250% to 100% and use a magnifier. ;-)

     

    Seriously (I'm using the same laptop) I doubt that there is anything else someone can do than to adapt the source of the plugin.

    All plugins which do not use the IndirectUI API of Paint.NET have to be prepared that the controls must be scaled to the current resolution.

  3. I am having problems using this Plug-In.   On my screen the control dialog box looks like this:

    The controls are unusable.   :(

     

    I have the latest version of Paint.Net (4.5.5454.39504)  and the latest version of this plug-in (1.2.3903.27501).  I am using a Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro running Windows 8.1.  This has a 13" display running 3200x1800 resolution.  I have a similar issue with dialog boxes in a few other software packages and with one other Paint.Net plug-in.

     

    I understand that this issue is due to the high screen resolution and the high dpi.  So possibly other devices using high resolution and high dpi have this same problem

     

    I would like to use this plug-in as I am interested in HDR and I am following the Extreme HDR Tutorial.

     

     

  4. Will you please post the Effects/Filters used, and the settings where appropriate.

     

    Thank you.

     

    Though not quite verbatim, I did manage a reasonable fact simile of your desired results. Unfortunately this site no longer lets me upload images. I sure as heck ain't gonna upload the image to another site and post a link to it here. They would think I really lost it.......

  5. I think this 3rd suggestion from Cc4FuzzyHuggles got me the closest.

     

    I had already tried the first two suggestions, the "Extreme HDR Tutorial" and "TR's HDRish effect" and found neither very satisfactory.

     

    Then I tried the "Laplacian Pyramid effect", the third suggestion.  This has come very close, and I haven't spent much time with it.

     

    Here is a before and after pair of photos.

    Many thanks to everyone for your offers of ideas and suggestions.  

     

    I believe that Cc4FuzzyHuggles has found my solution.  Thank You.

     

    Hello. :)

    For HDR effects with paint.net you can try this tutorial, or you can try this plugin. I have not yet tried this plugin, but maybe it could be usefull too.

    Paint.net can sort of do HDR, it just might not be as good as what you could find from other programs. But I'm sure with the right plugins and if you use the right blending modes, paint.net could still make something impressive. I have not tried to make things look HDR in paint.net very often yet though, so I can't suggest more, sorry.
