Alternative tool on startup

[tonyt]

Hi,

I've happiy used PaintNet for years - does exactly what I want.

 

I may have missed something in the instructions, or on the forum so please direct me to an answer if there is one.

 

Although I am pretty familiar with the tools one thing I ALWAYS forget is that when I start the program the tool that is selected is to draw a nice black line, whereas more often than not I really want to start the program with a select tool as I usually am editing a saved image.  So my first action is to undo the wiggly line I have just drawn by mistake.

 

Of course it is all my fault, I really should have got this by now and should select the tool before I move over the image - I'll blame my age rather than my stupidity.

 

Is there a way to select a default start up tool?

 

Thanks

Tony

Yes.  Just click  (upper right corner of your paint.net window), then click Tools.

Thanks BoltBait and Ego Eram Reputo!

I missed that, my excuse is being an old codger with faulty eyes.

 

Seems like topic can be closed.

 

All the best,

Tony
