extend a background not resize the canvas
Ego Eram Reputo replied to mattthemat's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Resizing the image will affect the logo size. Correct. Changing the canvas size will not affect the logo size. It will either place more space around the image (canvas = larger) or crop the edges (canvas = smaller). If you're seeing the logo become smaller then it is due to the zoom level changing to squeeze the enlarged image into the view window. Ctrl + B resets zoom to 100%. -
Canvas position
Ego Eram Reputo replied to PlainoldTony's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
You can combine the Spacebar and keyboard arrow keys. Unfortunately this is not per-pixel but instead scaled inversely by the amount you have zoomed in (large zoom = smaller movements. Small zoom = large movements). At 100% zoom each combination keypress results in a 10px movement. At 600% zoom you get somewhere between 1 to 2px movements. I had to zoom in 1000% before I consistently get 1px movements. This may be scaled by your system - so some experimentation might be worthwhile. Adding the Ctrl key multiplies the movement x10. -
Canvas position
Ego Eram Reputo replied to PlainoldTony's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Try Ctrl + A (select all the current layer) then M (Move tool) then use the keyboard arrow keys for per-pixel shifting. Pro tip: Ctrl + Arrow Key = 10px movement per button press. -
Shapes help needed
Ego Eram Reputo replied to DieselJC's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
FYI - the default Shape tool has Heart and Star included as default shapes. REF: https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/ShapeTools.html -
March Update One new plugin this month: Graph Paper BoltBait Renders school-style graph paper with or without XY axis. Can also draw points and primitive shapes based on a sequence of cartesian points. Source code provided. There is also the inclusion of an old plugin - which had been missed: Make Color Transparent from KrisVDM's Plugin Pack. Sorry for the omission @KrisVDM

How do I install paint.net
Ego Eram Reputo replied to knight227's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Here's the link for the ^download page^: https://www.getpaint.net/download.html#download -
Reset your auxillary windows with Ctrl + Shift + Click on the icons top right of the main window. REF: https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/ColorsWindow.html#3 You can resize them, but not the content. If relocating the windows is problematic, try the Single Rimmer salute. It might be easier in the long run to just hide/show the windows as you need them.

Honestly, I think that's how most of us do it. If you have lots of text I recommend using an external word processor. You can copy your text into the layer name (best to have one layer for each paragraph). You can fit a surprising amount of text in this field. The layer name can act as the source if you need to recreate the text. Press F4, then Ctrl + C to copy the text. As far as I'm aware, the Editable Text plugin still works.

Combining Two Images. Odd Confusion
Ego Eram Reputo replied to Agrajag's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Try increasing/decreasing the width. Sorry it's all I can suggest. -

Could it be centering the image? -
Combining Two Images. Odd Confusion
Ego Eram Reputo replied to Agrajag's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Hi @Agrajag - welcome to the forum! Try this different set of steps to achieve what you want: Set your Secondary color to black (easiest way is to swap the default colors around with this icon in the Colors window: ) Open the Nature Scene image Go to the menu Image > Canvas Size Make sure By Absolute Size is selected and Maintain Aspect Ratio is not. Type in the desired width = 5900 Image should be anchored Right (Top, Middle or Bottom shouldn't matter as we're only increasing the width) Press OK Post back here if you have any trouble. -
So why does this work? This copies your selection to the clipboard and removes it from the active layer Pastes the selecton in the clipboard to a new layer As this is a new layer, when you move the selection around, it doesn't overwrite the pixels in the original layer. Ctrl + M merges the new layer into the original one. A great answer from @BoltBait. Cheers to @toe_head2001 for the new key decorations!

Fabulous! -
Text Along A Slight Curve
Ego Eram Reputo replied to Rokitman's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Text Distortion or Arc Text should be able to do what you want. -
Just this^. The plugin was published in 2007. If it hasn't been updated, it probably won't be. Without the requested information there is little we can do.

Disable save prompt?
Ego Eram Reputo replied to VinCactus's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Hello & welcome to the forum @SouthPark. This thread is 3+ years old. I'll shortly lock it. If you wish to continue this discussion, please start a new thread. Because you're new around here, I'll give you the lowdown.... PDN saves in a format that preserves information. If the format is unspecified (a New image) it's not a stretch for PDN to ask what configuration you want. On first save for a new image, single layer images default to *.PNG. Multi-layered images default to *.PDN. These are chosen as the defaults so data is preserved. Once saved, edits to the image will not ask for the file format again unless the parameters have changed (you added layers to a PNG for eg). -
You'd think by now I'd have learned this ^. Solved Thank you @BoltBait

Nice! I wanted to have a play with this, but I'm unable to build the DLL from the source (using Codelab 6.11). Appears to Render fine from Codelab ...but has build errors. Edit: Is there a clever way to copy the Error List in Codelab?
