So, you're saying Fuzzy dice would be acceptable?

Object of the Fortnight #6 – Pair of Dice The pair (2 dice) must be six-sided with dots. See example photo in the link above. The deadline for entries is 2200 UTC (10:00 PM UK Time) on Thursday, May 11. Please see the Countdown Timer. for exact time remaining. . Competition Rules: 0. The pair (2 dice) must be six-sided with dots. See example photo in the link above. 1. Your entry must not have a background/backdrop/scene; just the object on a transparent canvas. Shadows are fine. 2. Your entry must be 100% made using Paint.net. Don't use another image editor. Don't use stock images/photos (in full or parts thereof). 3. Max dimensions are 600x600. 4. You may modify or replace your image until the deadline. 5. Multiple entries per entrant are allowed. Make a separate post for each one. You may link to alternative versions, but they will not be part of your entry. This thread is for posting competition entries only. If you're not posting an entry, don't post here. If you want to talk about any of the entries, or ask a question regarding the competition, you can do so in the discussion thread found here.

That's not a bug, that how it should work. No, it's not. It's overwriting part of the White circle with Transparency, and thus the Black background is showing through.

It's counting up now... I knew I should have used that "stop at zero" option. Sorry for the delay with ending the poll. My mind was somewhere else.

Version 1.4 posted. It has some fun stuff like a resizable window. See the first post for the full changelog, and the download.

Don't forget to vote! The poll will end in about 27 hours. https://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/111258-object-of-the-fortnight-5-–-wrenchspanner-–-poll-open/

Um, what? The Snipping Tool has been included in Windows since Vista.

Yes, I'd like every heading to have an id on it, so we can link directly to it. For example, the "Sampling Modes" heading the on Color Picker page would look like this: <h3 id="SamplingModes">Sampling Modes</h3> So we could link directly to it like this: https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/ColorPicker.html#SamplingModes Could you add an Apache rule that rewrites the URLs to exclude the .html ?

I worked on this again tonight. With further optimizations, I was able to get that large image to render in under 2 seconds. I also fixed a bug that had caused the thumbnail area of UI to be slightly squished vertically. Weren't you working on a separate plugin to do this?

Indeed. I looked at this a few minutes ago. By changing just a few lines of code, I was able to speed it up significantly. When I tried it on a large (26.5 Megapixels) image, rendering went from 14 seconds to just 2.6 seconds. Smaller images will of course be even faster. For those interested in the technical details, TR was copying a Surface on every single ROIS. https://github.com/toehead2001/pdn-tr-distort-this/commit/8928a2cac03eb41685e2619ed58b5466bd24289d I'm going to see what other sorts of improvements I can make. Any requests?

I believe that was fixed in v4.0.15. Please update (v4.0.16 is the newest), and let us know if that solves the issue.

Your paint.net installation is broken. You can use this utility to remove the broken installation: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/17588/fix-problems-that-block-programs-from-being-installed-or-removed Afterwards, you can install paint.net anew.

That makes no sense. A gradient needs a direction (and a range length), and you can't get one from a pour.

No, but you can do that with the Gradient tool. https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/GradientTool.html

What sort of issues arise from have the "wrong" locale settings? Perhaps we can fix this in CodeLab, so you don't have to adjust your settings.

What function is it not doing? If I don't know about the issue, I can't fix it. Anyway, the file is called DHShapeMaker.dll. If you really want the old version, I can sent it to you in a P.M.

Hi @minaite, what you're asking for (interacting directly with the canvas) is not possible to do in a paint.net plugin. Perhaps one day Rick will add the ability for plugins to add custom Tools. For now, plugins are limited to custom Effects, and in turn, limited to what Effects can do. As for this plugin, its usability and performance could definitely be improved. TR made the source code available, so such improvements could be made. And finally, please stop posting duplicate stuff in different parts of the forum.

I read on the first page that the original release of CodeLab came bundled with some sample Effects. Using the Wayback Machine, I dug up that old fossil from 11 years ago. I went through each one, and made them all compatible with paint.net v4. Tom's Samples.zip

Hey Pat, please open Folder Options, and make sure this option is not checked:

Oooo, it sure does. That reminds me of Sugar coated gumdrops.

This tutorial is available as a PDF. Click here to view or download it Note: This guide is designed for laymen, and won't discus writing/editing code. If you know how to write code and want to do some development in CodeLab, please go read BoltBait's tutorials instead. Introduction Sometimes people, such as myself, will post some code, and tell you to go use it with something called CodeLab. Q. What's this CodeLab thing? A. In layman's terms, CodeLab is a plugin that allows you to write custom Effects within paint.net in real-time. Q. It says "for advanced users", so why would you have me use it!? A. That's what I hope to address with this guide. Q. Ok, but since I don't write code, what all can I do with CodeLab? A. Aside from the obvious running code that has been copied & pasted, you can build (create the .dll file) your own Effect plugins, or translate its User Interface into your native language. Q. I can't tell the difference between Ancient Greek and computer code, so is CodeLab safe for me to use? A. It's extremely difficult to break something when using CodeLab. (If you do want to break something, you have to know what you're doing.) So, yes, it's safe for the "average Joe" to use. If you are copying & pasting code from an unfamiliar source, please exercise caution. Or exercise caution always... Q. Assuming it's available, can I use the code from any paint.net plugin? A. No. Some plugins require Visual Studio. If it's compatible with CodeLab, the original author will usually tell you. Running Code - Remove the existing code, and Copy & Paste the source code you want to run. Here I have highlighted the code editor portion of CodeLab's interface. - After 3 seconds, the pasted source code will automatically execute. - Press the OK button to confirm the changes to the current layer. (just like any other Effect in paint.net) Creating a .DLL File - Press the Save button. This will save the source code as a .cs file (cs aka C Sharp aka C#). - Press the Build DLL button. This will create a .dll file you can install as its own paint.net plugin. - and Press the Build button. - The built .dll file will be placed on your Desktop. You'll need install it, but there's also a handy batch file on your Desktop that will do it for you. Translating into your Native Language - Press the Interface Designer button. - Select a UI control from the list. Here I have my 'Rubber Stamp' source code loaded into CodeLab, and the Roughness slider is selected. - Type in your Translation (I typed "Rugosité"; the French word for Roughness ... I think) - Press the Update button - Press the OK button, or select another UI control to edit to repeat the process. You could also change the Default values, but you should take caution when changing the Min and Max values.
