Flowgun

Update: I don't experience this issue anymore after new updates. It seems to be fixed.

I know that the feature is not (yet?) implemented. I mean no offense, but I find it a bit short-sighted. It is more important to have a philosophy and coherency within one single software than to follow some other clunky software that is made for another purpose, and create conflicting behaviors all over the place.

Also, using Ctrl to draw from center is not consistent with Selection tools where Ctrl adds to the selection. What if I want to draw a selection from center?

Choosing the secondary color with the right mouse is really great! especially when using the gradient too. I wasn't aware of it until now. I also tested it on the sliders. they only work on the primary color with the left mouse, which doesn't seem to be very consistent, like if I want to darken the secondary color I just chose by right-clicking. I think it would be cool if the sliders work with the right mouse too, or maybe on the last chosen color while the mouse is still on the color window. This latter option is also useful to change the last-chosen color by rolling the mouse wheel over the values.

I tried. I even mapped Alt+Pg a a completely different combination logically with autohotkey. It still doesn't work. It's most likely a bug.

I must add that ctrl+Alt+PgUp works and Alt+PgDown works. the problem is only with Alt+PgUp alone.

yup. paint.net 5.0.2 (Stable 5.2.8451.6614). also my PgUp key works everywhere else.

Hello. The title says it all. it's supposed to "Go to Layer Above". Anyone else is experimenting this issue?

To blend colors between each other, digital artists need a low opacity brush, plus painting over, picking the new color, painting again, then picking again... This means picking up the color while preserving the brush's lower opacity multiple times per second. Having the colorpicker pick opacity simply makes this (very common/essential) workflow impossible. Here's a video of Dave Greco demonstrating a similar workflow: https://youtu.be/-oPp6NE4WL8?t=125 A checkmark to disable picking the opacity would make the software a lot more attractive. It is the main bottleneck for digital artists. With Autohotkey, I was able to map the color picker to Alt key. When it's pressed, it reads the opacity of the current tool and switches to the color picker. When it's released, it gets back to the previous tool and sets the opacity back to the read value. The experience is not as smooth as I want it to be though.

Hello everyone, I love Paint.NET mainly because it's lightweight. My biggest problems with it are: - lack of customizable hotkeys. this is somehow easily fixable with Autohotkey. - the settings are universal instead of being linked to the tool in use (opacity, size, hardness,...). I tried fixing this with Autohotkey, but it slows down things and not very reliable. - the colorpicker picking the opacity. LIKE NOOOOO. how am I supposed to paint? there should be a checkmark to disable this "option". Painting requires setting a low opacity, then picking colors from both sides to make a smooth transition. if each time the opacity resets to 255, then the software becomes useless for this purpose. I also tried to fix this with AHK, but it's a pain. That's basically it... these 3 fixes would make the software thousands of times more usable.
