[Setting Specific Sizes]

How about this:

 

Activate the Rectangle select tool  (press S once)

 

In the toolbar, set the selection mode to Fixed Size, then specify the height and width in the unit you desire (ref: https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/RectangleSelectionTool.html )

 

Click on the canvas to place the rectangle then use Backspace or Shift +  Backspace to fill the rectangle with the Primary or Secondary color.

 

 

This is flipping cool. You help me dramatically. Just one more gripe (apologies): can I get an outline or should I use the plug-ins the users in this topic provided?

Thank you. Quick question: will these lines measure in inches even thought no unit of measurement is specified in the toggle number box?

So this is ticking me off to no end. I tried "GIMP", MS Paint, and Pixlr, and now this, but they (and you) don't have what I'm looking for.

 

I want to be able to set a shape (IE rectangle) to a certain width and height.

 

Apologies if the tone of my post is coming off harsh. I'm just irritated.

 

Thank you.
