Nathan Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 In the Edit menu, it would be nice to have a 'paste as new image' option. I take a lot of screenshots. In MSPaint, I can just set the startup new image size to be really small, so when I hit paste then it resizes to the exact correct size. However, since the default image size does not appear to be changable, it would be nice if I could just say Edit > Paste as new image and get an image sized exactly to the image on the clipboard. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SearedIce Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 To do this in Paint.net, just press Ctrl-N or go to File->New. It will automatically choose the dimensions of what the screenshot is. Press OK to confirm, then just press Ctrl-V to paste the image in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tk Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 File -> Acquire -> From Clipboard I've always overlooked the acquire in the File menu because I always ASSUME it is just for getting stuff from a scanner or the like. Your suggestion will save me time and a liitle frustration!!! Thank you Master Rick (and Tom too)!!! got to remember... file... acquire.... file... acquire... (my memory's almost as bad as aatwo's!) tk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
