I understand that you were upset by BB's statement, but I think OBL is very useful. Please don't stop developing it. Just put all the information about OBL so that no such misunderstandings occur.
Because the background is transparent, simply use Rectangle Select tool to select the content then Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste into New Layer (Ctrl+Shift+V).
You don't need to use Magic Wand in this case.
Very nice job! Thanks.
Shouldn't Pan control enabled / disabled have a gray border reflecting the size of the canvas?
There are also some issues with scaling the Color Wheel control in the UI interface.
The effect of this plugin is similar to that obtained by Rotate / Zoom except that the zoom is centered on the created selection.
To see the center of the selection click on the Move Selection tool and notice where the small circle marked with + is.
If there is no selection it zooms the entire canvas.
The plugin is inspired by the discussion on this thread:
https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/117885-zoomin-plugin/
It is located in Effects -> Selection submenu.

@Djisves pointed out to me that there is already another plugin that I missed and that does the same thing much better and has more options:
Hello @gotgot and welcome.
Make comments on a separate layer then you can delete / replace portions of text.
I also use the following method:
I write the text in a Notepad file then copy and I open Paint.net and after choosing the text tool I paste the text.
I always use a transparent layer for this.
This way I have access at any time to the text in the Notepad file that I can change it as I wish.

is the site I visit a lot.
Here things are going normally, the posts are immediately visible
and it is a site with much higher traffic than the paint.net forum.
