Unknown Effect & Sharper Outline?
BoltBait replied to ronanzer0's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
It was a little more than 2 lines of code... but, I have built a BETA/Test version of my Selection > Outline effect. Try it out and see if it is what you want. OutlineSelectionSquare.zip If it looks good, I'll make it part of my official plugin pack. -
Unknown Effect & Sharper Outline?
BoltBait replied to ronanzer0's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Try using the magic wand to select the object you want to outline, press Ctrl-I to invert the selection, then run Effects > Selection > Outline. Get it in this pack: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/11514- See if that helps. Remember, you should always work at 2x your final size and resize for final render. (for example, if your final graphic is going to be 100x50, create your canvas at 200x100. Do all your work at this size and save it that way as a .pdn file. Then, flatten and resize your image to 100x50 before saving to .png for final display.) -

Yes. That is how Paint.NET works.

Why are the Adjustments and Effects separate?
BoltBait replied to bEPIK's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Yes, this is possible. CodeLab supports this. Also, please remember that plugin developers decide where to put their plugins. So, often the placement is arbitrary. -
Why are the Adjustments and Effects separate?
BoltBait replied to bEPIK's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Adjustments only look at the current pixel when computing the resulting pixel. Effects typically look at surrounding pixels when computing the result. Effects > Render plugins don't look at any source pixels when computing a result pixel. For example: Hue/Saturation is an Adjustment. Gaussian Blur is an Effect. -
How to make a seamless texture?

Using Glow Effect Crashes Paint.Net
BoltBait replied to sutherlandws's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Not sure what the problem is with that plugin. In the mean time, you could use the built-in glow effect found under Effects > Photo > Glow. If you're having a problem with a specific plugin (which you are) site rules say you should post in that thread so the effect's author can help you. For fast effects, post here: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/19364-hardware-accelerated-blur-pack-v24/ Closing this. -
Rectangle select tool (et al.) improvement
BoltBait replied to bEPIK's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
This would be handy. But, if you think about it, it's not really necessary. You can always adjust the size and placement of the selection after it is made by using the -
OK, here's a solution for you: Create your own favorites menu. You can do this for any plugin where the source code has been published. Simply recompile the plugin using CodeLab and specify "!Favorites" or "~Favorites" as your menu. (Using "!" puts Favorites at the top of the list and "~" would put it at the bottom as the list is alphabetized.) By giving it a unique DLL filename, you can run both copies of the plugin (original menu and favorites menu).

I deal with the overload of available plugins by simply not installing EVERY SINGLE PLUGIN EVAR!

I can't get the text to print on my canvas
BoltBait replied to badpenny's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Make sure you don't have an active selection. That is, press Ctrl-D before using the text tool. If you try to put text outside of an active selection, nothing happens. -

I believe stippling uses fixed sized dots.

The two images I used were taken in my front yard about a week apart. I tried to stand in the same spot, but that was done from memory and it wasn't perfect. It was, however, close enough to be convincing. For the second shot, my daughter was standing on the left end of the teeter-totter.
