[feathering a selection]

Sorry guys, but I cant get as far as Zam; I cannot see the chequer board on the duplicate layer . . .

[feathering a selection]

I am using the feathering effect, but cannot use it to the same effect as in PhotoShop. I cannot get the subtlety in the feathering that I need: the transition across the feathering is very harsh and there is no soft, progressive change.

Any help appreciated.

I have just worked it out and it was as David suggested; I had extracted all of the dlls into a folder inside the Effects folder. I now have full acess to all plug ins, having moved the dlls back into the Effects folder. Thanks for your patience and help.

Sorry guys to repeat my request. I have downloaded v3.36 and Boltbaits plug in (saved to Programs, Paint.NET, Effects and extracted: do I have to do anything else?).

I have opened the program and I cannot see Feathering. I do not have it on my Effects menu, and I do not have a selections menu.

I am really struggling; any help much appreciated.

Thanks

I cannot see any reference to feathering in the help section either

Thanks for the suggestions . .

I have downloaded Boltbaits plugins, and tried to follow this advice in the posting. However under my effects menu I can only find Artistic, Distort, Blurs, Noise, Photo, Render and Stylise. I cannot find Effects - Object - Feather ??

How do I feather a selection? I want to select part of an image which may need levels adjustment, but I want to be able to blend the change into the rest of the image as you can do in Photoshop. Thanks in advance for any solutions.

I am using Paint.Net to teach children about image manipulation in my school. If anyone has any advice / resources on what I could / should include when teaching with Paint.Net I would be very happy to look at them; thanks.

David,

thank you for this; it's easy when you know how.

This forum saved me a lot of time.

Best wishes

[Inserting several images to create a banner]

Please could you explain how I can do this. The open command opens a new image entirely. I would like to create a long banner with 6 different images.

Thanks.
