SubtleEffect

Simon Brown · July 12, 2008

MODERATORS NOTE: This effect is incompatible with Paint.NET 4.0x

SubtleEffect Advanced Menu

There are many effects availible that lack an intensity slider, many of which you may wish for such a feature. This plugin allows you to select a plugin along with the opacity of which it will hold over the origional image.

IceFusion · July 12, 2008

Seems useful, Thanks! I'll check it out.

LJXD · July 12, 2008

Would this plugin make such plugins as,say, Gaussian Blur more sensitive?

It basically fades the plugin's result with the origional image.

Curtis · July 12, 2008

Looks pretty cool, but could you maybe have the list of effects be sorted alphabetically or something, they seem to just be in a random order at the moment. Otherwise, it could be quite useful, Thanks.

Myrddin · July 12, 2008

Perfect for Add Noise. I've always desired a transparency adjustment in Add Noise for adding subtler amount of noise to an image, rather than the stark monochrome noise that is produced. This will prove exactly that solution.

Great thanks to you, Simon!

How about adding a blend mode option?

How about adding a blend mode option?

I will include this in the next version.

Bug:

- Open SubtleEffect;

- open the drop-down list and leave it open;

- use the down key to navigate the effects list;

- by the third or fourth down strike, a crash occurs.

I am aware some effects do not work. Should I catch this error?

Myrddin · July 13, 2008

It's not that some effects do not work - I have yet to find one that doesn't - it's that using the arrow keys to navigate the list causes a crash and closure of Paint.NET after a few strokes of the key. This happens no matter where you start in the list, up or down in direction.

I frequently use the arrow keys for navigation of lists (blend modes in particular), therefore this is quite detrimental to me. That's not speaking for others, mind.

Simon Brown · July 13, 2008

Could this be because the effects render immediatly after selecting them and navigating fast disrupts this?

Myrddin · July 13, 2008

Nope. I took your suggestion, running through each effect until it had rendered before moving onto the next, yet it still occurred.

EDIT: do you think a crash log would help?

I didn't intend to blame you, rather seek an explanation to a problem I am unsure of. Have you tried selecting each effect with the mouse instead and reporting if you have the same problem?

Also, I reccomend using the

 tag for crash logs as, unlike the quote tag, it displays scrollbars for long text.

Myrddin · July 13, 2008

I didn't intend to blame you

I'm not thinking that way, I understand what you must do to find the root of the bug.

As for the mouse, I can select as fast or as slow as I am able to with no recurrence of the bug. It appears to be isolated to keyboard commands (the arrow keys) rather than the mouse as well.

Also, I reccomend using the

 tag for crash logs as, unlike the quote tag, it displays scrollbars for long text.Sorry, I'm too used to a widescreen. I've edited my previous post to accommodate this.

I am having the plugin crash with using my laptop's mouse, and no keys? So unless this is because somehow laptop mice are related to keys, this is unrelated to Myrridin's post.

MODERATORS NOTE: This effect is incompatible with Paint.NET 4.0x

@Sakana Oji The first post states the above^^. Effect will not work with current PDN version.

HyReZ · January 6, 2019

I have an archived copy of Simon Brown's 'SubtleEffect.dll' from 2008. It will bring down PDN and create a pdncrashXX.log entry if you apply it! If installed; it will not show up under the the Effects/Advanced column. I had to try applying it from the Plugin Browser's Run Effect button. It will crash PDN is the point. The plugin contains a copyright, so I am not certain if modifications to Simon's code is allowed.

Locking this.

The "dead link" was pointing to Simon's plugin pack, which doesn't even include this plugin anymore.

If you want opacity settings, use BoltBait's Transparency plugin or use Layer Opacity.
