That would actually be really good too.

Colour me stupid but how does one access the plugin at all? I'm in paint.net and I'm not seeing it in either the effects or the adjustments menu.

Here is a portion of the image which is giving me trouble. http://i.imgur.com/VUN347b.png Note the grey I do not want converted, ONLY the pure white.

I am having trouble getting this working, I have a file which has a white background but it's converting a lite grey inside the image also (which I admit, does touch the white) - the image is specifically only 8 colours, it's been "cartoonized" for lack of a better word. How can I set a transparency ONLY on the pure white (is that 0,0,0??)

If it highlights the specific file I currently have in the foreground, it's awkward but usable.

Well I've tried, not much more I can do. Such a simple feature saves people having to manage things through 2 applications. http://i.imgur.com/xXNk9Us.png I shall stick with PSP for my main work ongoing - thanks anyhow.

You can't see the files you want to delete, because it's Windows Explorer? In the editing package it's right there, open in front of you "oh this picture isn't that good, delete"

My point is, you're doing a manual, awkward workaround to a built in ability to simply delete files, hence proving my point - it's a useful feature that some members would be likely to use. The hotkey (if any) is irrelivant, it could be in the file menu for example.

Interesting that you yourself have adapted to a workaround - it seems you too could do with the CTRL-DEL functionality I mention then, no?

The problem as I mentioned is, in PSP, say I'm working on a set of 15 snaps I took all of the same thing, perhaps just a person? Straight off the bat, 6 of them are just blurry, aligned wrong, useless - these files are no good to me. I simply hit CTRL-DEL - get rid of it, I end up with only the files remaining to clean up and actually save. Sure fulll file browser functionality is silly and not required at all, but considering we have file open,save, saveas, acquire and so on, is it so unreasonable to have "delete current file" (Warning, this will close and delete currently open file, Y / N) EDIT: Followup The other thing is, yes it's not a traditional feature one would demand or expect in all graphics applications but it is a convienient tool meaning the user need not alt tab and switch between other apps to get things done.

Rick, is there any chance you could give some thoughts to the file deletion option under say the file menu? I can adapt to CTRL-TAB to change files, as at least the functionality is there but not being able to delete from within my graphics app really changes my workflow (I open dozens of pics taken with a camera at a time, then just delete the terrible ones straight out of the directory to save time) I'd think it'd be fairly small code, I can donate if required - Thanks

So the program doesn't have the hooks required? That's a shame. Seem like such simple options too.

It is definitely, I could probably adjust to it but it'd be nice to be able to have it as standard. I asked in the plugin forum - do you think a plugin to do this would even be possible? Also the file deletion - I got the impression from the developer above he's flat out not interested. I guess it's his program, his choice - of course but I'd like to see a system like this used for new features. http://cdburnerxp.uservoice.com/forums/165656-feature-requests (I emailed a Dev about Cdburner XP and they linked me to that, I quite like it) Anyhow, as it stands I basically need to keep the 2 apps, I can just do so much, so quickly with PSP5, especially sorting and resizing files, that delete is priceless to me.

Oh yeah, is this kind of stuff possible via plugin? I know this package supports plugins, I can't code for bloody potato but I'd paypal anyone 20$ to replicate Paint Shop Pro 5 functionality - I just want to switch to a single graphics package, I'm still using something from 1999 because it's STILL the simplest and most reliable thing I have

Any particular reason? CTRL-F6 is Windows standard hot keys, CTRL-DEL certainly isn't but it's a nice feature - instead of having to tab back out to delete files to another application.

I can't find an option to delete files from within the application, in Paint Shop Pro (5, no less!) I can hit "CTRL-DEL" to delete the file I'm working on - it closes it and offers a warning obviously, any plan to add this.

Hello, Yep, I know this is a silly thing to post about but it's frustrating. Windows standard hotkeys for most complying applications are "CTRL-F6" = switch windows / open files. Example, open MS Word and 5 word documents, hold down CTRL-F6, it will cycle through them Same with Paint Shop Pro and many other apps. These keys are really,.. well standard. CTRL-F4 - close current Window (you do this correctly) ALT-F4 - close app entirely (you can't not do this, it's built into WindowS) ALF-F file menu (yep, got this correct) and so on but I've had this installed about 5 minutes and I already miss CTRL-F6 I assume I'm probably the only person who has ever asked for this but do, please consider.
