dragongrrl56 Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 I'm a newbie to this stuff, but I've been using Paint.net since January and I love the magic wand. Only now it doesn't turn off. I click it, do what I want and then right click to make it turn off which always worked before and now it doesn't. Please help. This happened after the last update and I'm lost. I searched and read and found nothing. Anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Just press Esc or Ctrl+D to deselect. Right-click doing what you want in previous versions was a coincidence -- that used to be the command for subtracting from the selection, as it turns out you were probably right-clicking in an area that ended up creating the result you wanted (deselection). Alt+Left Click is the new way for doing selection subtraction.

dragongrrl56 Posted July 11, 2008 Author Share Posted July 11, 2008 Thanks so much. I knew it would be an easy answer. I think the intuitive nature of the program encourages experimentation and got me in a crunch. I appreciate your reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
