djesper Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Whenever i have many layers (20 max) the software seems to halt on changes in the layer menu only. I store multi layered .pdn files as templates and these usually affect the software the moment they are loaded, but not if they are just created. In the past resizing would tend to glitch, the last few versions have the layer issue stalling it sometimes totally beyond restoring. I suspected the new version being the problem, using a previous 3.5 version solved the issue. any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Unusual. I've not heard of this problem before.Have you tried running the PdnRepair utility? Find it in your paint.net directory e.g. C:\Program Files\paint.net\PdnRepair.exeAre there any crash log reported? Look in Settings > Diagnostics > Open Crash Log folderIf that fails to solve the problem, go to Settings > Diagnostics > Copy to Clipboard. Paste the results into a post here.While you have the Settings dialog open - try disabling the animations. Just to see..you never know.

I will reproduce it when i'm finished editing a folder with the older version. The latest version was uninstalled after reinstalling with the same effect, So i'm pretty sure i can reproduce it and post log files. If it is such an unfamiliar error, logically it must be my computer which turned out to be totally virus or other malware free by the way. The .pdn file in question is 1000x1000 px, this file has only 5 layers which are mostly transparant. I'll post logs later.
