pdnnoob Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 My touchpad looks somewhat like this: The area highlighted in red, on many touchpads, can be used for scrolling. What I'm saying is, if you have that functionality, it should be compatible with the smudge plugin. 1 Quote what I do all summer Emote Cursor Pack 'noob gallery No, Paint.NET is not spyware...but, installing it is an IQ test. ~BoltBait Blend modes are like the filling in your sandwich.

ratty redemption Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 oh, so it's not a separate pad, it's functionality is built into the main pad. i go have a look at our driver here and see if there is something we can enable, as currently i'm sure our's isn't doing the scrolling.

ratty redemption Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 apparently, our dell touchpad does have those finger gestures, but i can see why we'd turned them off. they're not very reliable and definitely not accurate, but i doubt that's paint.net's fault, more like the limitation of our hardware and or it's drivers. thanks very much for your help, although i think i'll just stick to using the scroll bars and zoom buttons for the foreseeable future.

deejaysd Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Well...I actually think it's okay now. By working with much smaller areas at a closer view I'm able to can control the effect much better. Learning process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrochild Posted June 8, 2014 Author Share Posted June 8, 2014 I was pretty excited to see that you created a smudge brush as I use it often in other programs. However, I felt that the effect was rather intense, even when setting it to #1. As a result, it works more like a "push" brush set at low intensity rather than a "smudge" brush...at least for my purpose. I use "smudge" to smooth out skin and wrinkles and to softly blend inconsistancies in skin complexion, so if the effect is too strong it's not going to look natural. Just giving my feedback, in case you decide to make any adjustments in the future. Thank you for creating those plugins. You and all the other contributors are simply amazing. -deejay You can also try using a lighter brush like this one: Quote ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it!

GinNoKaze Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 guess i'll be the one to ask. where does this pack even go for it to work at all? because it clearly doesn't go in the effects folder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Yes they do (go in /Effects/). You need to unzip the pack and move or copy the files into the /Effects/ folder. Then restart paint.net.

GinNoKaze Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 there is not a single ".dll" in the entire folder. everything in there is ".cs" and wont work. and if it is working, i cant locate it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJW Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 You must have downloaded the wrong file. You have the project source code, not the DLL. If you have Visual Studio installed, you could build the project, but it's easier to download the correct file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Brewster Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 dipstick, You've been on the forum long enough to know that only the latest version of Paint.NET is supported. You're on your own for requests like that.

bobsully Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Does the plug-in work with Windows 10? I ask because all seem to load and are available, but I am not finding Smudge under Tools. I have approved the DLL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red ochre Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 bobsully - welcome to the forum! Note that Smudge can be found under Effects/Tools, not the Pdn 'Tools' window.Sorry if you knew that already and yes it works with windows 10. Quote Red ochre Plugin pack..............

DuraMater Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 I used to have the smudge tool, but on my last update of paint.NET, it seems to have disappeared. Does that mean I have to pay for it now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try downloading it anew. Quote My Gallery | My Plugin Pack Layman's Guide to CodeLab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks toe-head2001. EDIT: Sorry, I did find the link to download the zip file from pyrochild. Unfortunately I got an error message when I tried to unzip the file. Any advice? EDIT 2: I tried a tactic that worked once before, which was unzipping the file in the download folder, then cutting and pasting directly to the paint.NET folder. It sort of worked, but Norton flagged two of the components as dangerous and deleted them: grid warp.dll and gradient mapping.dll. Smudge doesn't even show up. Has anyone else had this problem?
