  1. If it's of any help in diagnosing, another thing I've noticed tonight, after it was first behaving and then not, is that if I have a "return glitch" on trying to swap back to P.N then I'll have this display glitch.  The return glitch is when I click on any of the P.N pop up minatures from the P.N icon on my task bar but windows doesn't return to P.N.  I then repeat the attempted return and this time it will work, but I get the display glitch. Can't yet be sure that this is a one-for-one relationship but it gels with my past experience and experience so far tonight. Cheers,

  2. Thanks. No. I've never overclocked. And this is a new machine on which I've never done screen recording.  I had the same problem on my old machine. Not heard of Windows Blinds before.

     

    I've had the same problem 3 or 4 times today. It's a regular ocurrence for me. Has been for some time, I've just never got around to reporting it.

     

     

  3. I've had this intermittent bug for some time (Win 10 x64 currently paint.net 4.216.7781.39227): With several files open, one always a multi-layer file 'cause that's what I'm doing in P.N, when I swap to another window and then return to P.N, the ribbon dialogues are incomplete (eg the red-x box to close a file will not display) or even missing. In the layer dialogue, the layers might be missing or part of the actionable bits or information bits for each is missing.  A screenshot from today to illustrate the issue.

     

    In the past, I've had to close P.N and re-open to re-establish all the dialogues. Today I chanced on closing the layer file making the other file's dialogues re-establish. I've yet to see if that was a real work-around, or just a fluke.

     

    In the screen shot, I think I might have already tried to close the layer file (the blue box with nothing in it in the ribbon) but at that point P.N did not seem to have responded.

    I can suggest a somewhat complex workaround. After making the selection, create and select a new layer. Flood fill the selected area with the Paint Bucket. Deselect and do a command such as Gaussian Blur that modifies the boundary. Use the Magic Wand, with properly selected tolerance, to select an expanded or contracted region. Select the original layer, and use the modified selection. Sort of complicated, but in practice not too difficult. Whether it produces the desired result depends on the particular situation. It would be relatively easy to replace the blur with a plugin to expand or contract the filled region in a desired fashion.

    Thanks heaps for this suggestion MJW. Does exactly what I needed. Cheers.
