Hi Pixey. thx for your app suggestion, but the sample app dialog box is the type that i want to avoid; Some years ago i actually found on PDN (and used) an excellent COLOR-control app plug-in with multiple slide-controls for EACH hue (!), which is exactly what i need, but because i had to re-install PDN back then, i lost that app and could not find it again on PDN. If there is another avail app similar to this, please notify me. Thx !

Hi Everyone- I searched PDN for this topic but oddly got zero results. Can anyone here suggest a PDN plug-in for image Color-Control that features individual hue slide-controls (to increase or decrease EACH hue) ? The current old PDN plug-in i have has slide controls that can only change hues into other hues, which is NOT what i need.

NOTE: As PDN rules require, i first extensively searched the PDN topics, but could not find any that directly answer (or are directly related to) the below digital image problem. THE PROBLEM : I have paid access to a website that features PDF images of hundreds of vintage 1960s (copyright expired) magazine pages, but the site does not allow downloading. My basic Windows10 tools can ZOOM, SCROLL and SNAPSHOT these, but when i ZOOM (for full resolution) and SNAPSHOT a page, only the SCREEN-VISIBLE portion of the image is copied (not the whole zoomed page), and in W10 SNAPSHOT mode, im not able to drag the SNAPSHOT BOX edges beyond the screen size (to choose the full image).... This requires me to make multiple partial SNAPSHOTS and then (in PDN) precisely merge and STITCH together the zoomed portions, a process that takes me up to 10 minutes for each image.... QUESTION : Is there a Windows10 keyboard (or PDN) procedure that will enable me to drag the SNAPSHOT box edges on a ZOOMED pdf image beyond the screen size ?

Hello everyone ! Im NOT familiar with DISTORTION CORRECTION apps and have not been able to find one that can un-distort a CURLED IMAGE.... Can anyone un-distort this sample image below of a text page ? If yes, could you also correct the GRADATED DARKENING toward the bottom and R-side of the image (and remove the dark spotting to look like the paragraph at center-top ?.... If you are able to do ONE OR BOTH corrections, please inform me what that app is and where i can get it !!! I thank you !

This morning i had just done a few HOURS of digital work creating a special modified movie still, and as i was opening another new canvas, the PDN system msg window appears, asking me if i want to share a particular image, showing an image i do NOT want saved, so i click on "DO NOT SAVE". Then i go back to the special image i was long working on....and i discover THAT is the image the PDN system deleted !!!!! I angrily screamed in disbelief in the realization i had just LOST all those hours of careful work !!!!!....WHY did the PDN system NOT show me a picture of THAT special image i was working on, but an UNWANTED image, when it asked me if i wanted to save it ???!!!!.... After this happened, i searched the PDN Forum for help on this matter using the SEARCH box with- "HOW can i recover a DELETED image i wanted to save ?", but got a list of thousands of question titles of which i could not find ANY related to my question.... QUESTIONS : 1. Is there a way to RECOVER a DELETED image i wanted to save in PDN ?.... 2. If NOT, why should there NOT be a way for the PDN to facilitate such an image recovery ? Rick, if you are reading this post, or have read this post, please respond to it.

In PDN can i....1. 'extract' all the SOLID BLACK in a B&W image as a separate element, set it aside, then...2. (with my cursor) colorize the original image with TRANSPARENT COLORS, then....3. place the SOLID BLACK element back onto the colorized image....resulting in a colorized image with full un-diminished BLACK CONTRAST ?.... I would prefer to do a similar procedure, instead of just trying to carefully apply TRANSPARENT COLORS on the lighter parts of the b&w image (which would cover and diminish much of the gradated-BLACK areas).... If i can NOT do that above 1-2-3 procedure in PDN, is there another FREE (or inexpensive) app or plug-in available online, in which i CAN do a similar procedure ?

No, i was not using the File Explorer, and all my image-files are set to automatically open in PDN, whether i open it from PDN or FE.

OK. youre right, and thx for the reminder.

Hello y'all ! Im a home concept-vehicle designer and long-time user of PDN, and recently after returning to work on a couple of my BMP images, i discovered i am unable to SAVE, DELETE or MOVE these two BMP images (side-view versions of a concept vehicle of mine) !!!....Are these two BMPs "corrupted" ?.... THE PROBLEM : When i click SAVE (for either of these two BMPs), a message process-percentage box appears saying "working on it....", but the percent continuously remains at "0%", and nothing happens !....SAME thing when i try to DELETE or MOVE those BMPs. And the ONLY way i found i can STOP that process is by opening the TASK MANAGER (ctrl+alt+delete) and closing PDN, which CANCELS ALL my latest work on the BMP image !!!....My other image files are NOT affected. IMPORTANT NOTES : 1. My system : One 2014 Toshiba Satellite 15" 1080p laptop (64-bit based) pc with 687 GB total hard-drive memory (181 GB used), connected to a 2016 Vizio 32" 1080p HDTV/monitor (and two 2016 Insignia stereo pc speakers), using Windows 10 (home edition) and the Firefox browser (latest version 78.0.1). 2. I use PDN to save ALL my image-files as BMPs, as it is the ONLY "lossless" image format available and practically USABLE for me, in PDN. 3. Most of my image BMPs are way under 10 MB, but many of my concept BMPS are near or over 100MB each (necessary for fine-detail work), and the two problem-BMPs are both 140 MB each. Altho i was able to save new/editable copies of these two BMPs, i still want to know WHY this happened and HOW (if possible) to fix this problem, as it MAY happen again in the future....Ive searched the PDN forums and the Internet without success....Anyone here have the WHY and/or HOW ?

Im a designer, and two VERY important large BMP IMAGE FILES i recently created and edited many times in PDN now CANNOT be SAVED, DELETED or MOVED ! (my other similarly-large image files are NOT affected).... IMPORTANT NOTES : 1. I use WINDOWS 10 (home edition / 64-bit based). 2. I never need or use LAYERS in creating or editing my images (and if i accidentally press the "merge layers" menu-item, i can then undo that).... 3. I save ALL my image-files ONLY as BMPs because it is the ONLY "lossless" image-format available and USABLE for me on PDN and Windows 10. During a SAVE/DELETE/MOVE process, the percentage window just freezes at "100%", and then NOTHING (stays frozen forever) !....the ONLY way ive found to UNFREEZE it is to open the TASK MANAGER and CLOSE PDN, which cancels ALL my latest work on the image !.... Any way i try to SAVE, DELETE or MOVE it (to the RECYCLE bin, for example), a percentage-graph window appears, stating "working on it", but no percentage count-down or anything happens (the graph stays on-screen forever), so i then have to open TASK MANAGER and CLOSE PDN (losing ALL my latest file-work) to return to my image files !.... I also tried RESTARTING (which does NOT fix it), and searched online for a SOLUTION....Does ANYONE on PDN (....Rick ?....) have a solution ?

Hello Everbody ! QUESTION : Can text created in OpenOffice be inserted into a BMP image in PDN ?....If yes, HOW do i do that ?

Hello everbody ! ....Hows this for a really unbelievable and crazy feature request : a TEXT tool on PDN (or a PDN plug-in) that actually provides the user the option to also JUSTIFY* the R-side of a paragraph or text !!! I realize some of you readin this are maybe thinkin "Hey fool !....that's already on PDN !" Well, i searched for it on PDN, with ZERO results. Or did i miss it ? * NOTE (only for those who do NOT know the definition of "justified text / paragraphs") : it means the L and /or R side of a text or paragraphs is vertically straight and not jagged.

Ego- I use the latest version of PDN, on Window10 /Home Edition. 1. No, i was/am referring to the PDN tool windows ("dialog" box windows. Examples : ALL of the "Adjustments" dialog boxes, ALL of the "Effects" dialog boxes, etc). 2. What do u mean by "child" window (which most internet users probably dont know either) ? 3. Im not a "Developer", im a PDN USER and i need to have ALL PDN tool windows ("dialog boxes") appearing at a side area that i choose, NOT obstructing my work image. So again, would you (or somebody) please explain how that need does not make sense ?!!!

I regularly use PDN (which is easier for me to use than other image apps), but a very frustrating aspect of it to me is that EVERY time i click to use a tool, the tool-window ALWAYS appears annoyingly centered on top of my work-image, requiring me EACH time to grab and move the window away to a side area !!!.... QUESTION 1 : Is there a way to permanently RE-SET this unwanted window-position to a designated side-area ? QUESTION 2 : If the answer to Q1 is NO, why does PDN not allow users to set their own tool-positions ?

HELLO Again Everybody ! - Is there a PLUG-IN (or downloadable app) to instantly TRANSLATE text in PDN images ?....it would be very useful and time-saving to INSTANTLY translate foreign-language text in PDN images into PDN, JPG, BMP, and other image formats. For example : with one click a JPG image of a page of french text opened in PDN is INSTANTLY translated. Thx !
