You sure about that, Mr Atwell? :wink: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=22766 Edit, Sabrown beat me

Ok, sorry about this but it was brought to my attention via PM that I wasnt making any more sense then a dog barking at its own shadow so let me explain some more. When I double click a .PDN image filetype I get a Paint.NET loading screen resulting in quicker load times for Paint.NET (I believe that loading time is spent dedicated to opening plugins, could be wrong). However, when I simply open up Paint.NET by shortcut or not .PDN image filetype I do not get this loading screen. So my question is, why is there a dedicated loading screen for .PDN images? Here is a screenshot of such loading screen:

Yes, but the problem lied in the fact that the Paint.NET Fietype API requires that image information be sent back to Paint.NET, from what I understood from Rick.

Please use search. I requested this two weeks ago.

I am honored to have helped.

Unfortunetly there is no basic way that has been released (*Cough* Pyrochild *Cough*). At the moment your best bet is to play around with the 'Key' Levels and try to match but this could be difficult and tedious. I am sorry!

I am going to have to agree with Sabrown here... *Cough*

I have a quick question: why is there only a loading screen for plugins and what not when you open up Paint.NET by double clicking a PdN File and not simply opening up Paint.NET?

No, no, and no. Did I say no? The key words is... The keyword is having non programmers releasing plugins that have to install. I will not touch those for my life, I only fiddle with DLLs.

No, no, and no. Did I say no?

Yes, certain portions of the layer you are working on must be completely transparent (CurrentPixel.A=0)

Great! Expect an update sometime tommorow (hopefully)

I want this feature as well, but much like how Opera manages it. Save your sessions and let reorganize. This would be very cool!

*Cough*

No I never passed this idea by you, sorry :oops: Anyways, cant wait to get home and see if it works like it should :twisted:

Edit: Snip Snip

Alright, Alpha Works is finished but not compiled yet. I need Code Lab to start behaving correctly and I will make the big upload.

This has been requested over and over again. For now I recommend using Curtis's new and amazing Channel Mask as it allows for easier masking.

Yes, for those who are wondering. I am just beginning. To see the setup in action go to http://pdnguide.zxq.net/ as to find out how I plan on doing things.

Ah, but you dont know what the question entailed. Searching would not have helped.

I may be wrong about this, but wouldnt that error have been caused by the previous installation attempt being logged in the registry?

Heh, just got another PM regarding plugin installation. I would have loved to say 'Read the Rules!'

This may sound 'rude' but I think if a rule can be created that can protect seasoned users and give seasoned users the chance to point out the rules to individual users then I think that oppurtunity needs to be grasped. I just had an interesting idea but is nothing I really want enforced: a private section of the forum for seasoned users (apart from the Mods lound and Beta Center and any others there may be that I do not know of)

You dont necessarily 'create' an application, you create an imaginary dream application in Paint.NET. All it is is images, nothing else.
