The 'Century Gothic' font is provided by MS Office. People who don't have Office installed will not be able to use this plugin.
SpoilerC:\Program Files\paint.net\Effects\Clock.dll, version 1.0.6223.26977 Name: Clock Type: ClockEffect.ClockEffectPlugin Version: 1.0.6223.26977 Author: Copyright © xod Copyright: Render the clock. Website: http://www.getpaint.net/redirect/plugins.html System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.ArgumentException: Font 'Century Gothic' cannot be found. at System.Drawing.FontFamily.CreateFontFamily(String name, FontCollection fontCollection) at ClockEffect.ClockEffectPlugin..ctor() --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.RuntimeMethodHandle.InvokeMethod(Object target, Object[] arguments, Signature sig, Boolean constructor) at System.Reflection.RuntimeConstructorInfo.Invoke(BindingFlags invokeAttr, Binder binder, Object[] parameters, CultureInfo culture) at PaintDotNet.Menus.EffectMenuBase.AddEffectsToMenu() in D:\src\pdn\src\PaintDotNet\Menus\EffectMenuBase.cs:line 602
You'll want to use an alternative default font, or have a fallback font for when 'Century Gothic' fails.

You could try TR's Alpha Cutter plugin:

Traditional hard disk drive
You could try defraging you hard drive; that should decrease the disk seek-time, and thus load the plugins faster.
If you have the means, it is recommended to invest in a Solid State drive. Even the cheaper ones that connect over SATA are leaps and bounds faster than spinning hard drives.

Are you using a Solid State drive, or a traditional Hard Disk drive?

I recommend using the the Median effect () in this case.

The following values gave me good results:
Radius: 3
Percentile: 55

You let it go for 3 hours? I would have killed it after 60 seconds, and then tried again.

So far four excellent entries have been submitted.
We're down to the last 36 hours; don't miss the deadline.

One observation regarding the sliders when I use the keyboard arrows
That's the standard behavior of a TrackBar in WinForms.
It makes perfect sense when TrackBars are orientated vertically, but that is rarely the case.

Have you been able to investigate the possibility of using pyrochild's CanvasPanel UserControl?
I may want to use it in a future plugin of mine, so I'd be curious of your findings.
On an unrelated note, please see this post:

will wide screen lower quality??
Assuming your screen resolution is lower than the image's resolution, yes, it would be lower quality, or at least less detailed.
Here's another option to try:
1) Open the image in the Photos program
2) Click on 'edit'
3) Click on 'Sauna' filter, and then click on the 'Original' filter
4) Click on 'Save a copy', and create the new image file
5) Try to open the new copy in paint.net
-
Well then...
1) Open the image in the Windows 10 Photos program
2) Select the 'Copy' menu item in the Photos program.
3) Paste the image into paint.net.
4) Save As...

Does your jpeg image open in other programs.

That indicates paint.net was previously installed on your system, but the install has since become corrupted in some way or another.
Please use this utility to remove paint.net:
Afterwards, you'll then be a able to re-install paint.net anew.

I don't like when paint.net crashes.
CodeLab ought to handle these type of exceptions, and display the exception message in the Errors pane.EDIT: oh yeah, CodeLab already does that (duh).
CodeLab (and thus paint.net) is crashing, because the error tooltip in the editor is trying to get
CompilerError
information (error line, error column, ect) from that item in the Errors pane. Those types of exception errors don't haveCompilerError
information, so a null reference crash happens.Easy fix though.
EDIT2: This was fixed in CodeLab v2.19.

Yeah, it's failing on
DrawArc()
, because there isn't enough space for your custom cap to be drawn. If you encloseDrawArc()
in atry{}
statement, you can watch as the caps slowly invert and then fail to draw as they become too close.try { g.DrawArc(gPen, centerX - arc1, centerY - arc1, arc1 * 2, arc1 * 2, 0, - angle); } catch { }

toe_head2001, in the source code, I can't find the implementation of the QuadrilateralTransformation class.
I just created the GUI, so the
QuadrilateralTransformation
class is in the AForge.NET libraries.- 1

The actual act of downloading doesn't work for you? or the plugin doesn't work after you've downloaded and installed it?

Version 1.1 post.
Fixes the GUI on HiDPI.

Version 1.4 posted.
Fixes an off-by-one bug where the bottom pixels and the right pixels were being clipped. Panning should also have a bit more precision; I switched from using
int
types tofloat
types in a few places, and the pan control now has 3 decimal places.- 4

Version 2.5 posted.
This version makes it much easier to input and change chart data. Also fixes the GUI on HiDPI.

takes those pixels and flips it or mirrors it and duplicates it relative to the original selection
So you want it to flip the selection, or mirror half of the selection to the other half? or have options for both?
Are you using CodeLab to do this?

When there are plugins where there is no Author then that plugin is not listed when listing by Author, rather than showing a blank in the Author column (or show "Unknown"?)
Done. Version 1.1.0.2 posted.
Note to plugin authors whose plugins are listed under the "- unknown -" list item:
Please don't forget to add author info to
AssemblyCompany
. For example:[assembly: AssemblyCompany("toe_head2001")]
If you're using CodeLab, then it's obvious where the author info goes...
I myself am guilty of leaving it blank in a few of my plugins. Those will be updated soon.
On 12/4/2016 at 1:15 PM, Ego Eram Reputo said:Plugin Index has that info. If the Author field in the plugin is blank just populate it from the Index.
Unfortunately, easier said than done. There aren't that many plugins without author info anyway, so not worth the effort.
Creating an "- unknown -" list item only required adding 3 lines of code.

Hey everyone, I plan to revamp the GUI of ShapeMaker for the next release. Does anyone have some suggestions on how to improving it?

Yes, but you have the FontFamily value initialized as 'Century Gothic', so that is what's used in the Render until the UI loads (the time span here is just a few milliseconds).
Once the UI has loaded, the EffectToken updates (which includes the new value for the FontFamily... usually 'Arial'), and the Render is restarted.
