Misling Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Hi, I'm a new user of paintdotnet and right now I'm trying to make some digiscrapping. I have downloaded a free kit from the internet and now I'm trying to use it. I have put a background into a layer and then I would like to write something on it. I made a new layer and then tried to write on it. My problem is that I can't see what I'm writing. I have tried to change the colour of the text but it doesn't work. Then I tried to make a box to write in but I can't see the box I tried to make. Can anyone tell me why it doesn't work? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Power Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Press Ctrl+A. Then try it again. Quote - My Gallery | My Deviant - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Power Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Do you want to know why it worked? Quote - My Gallery | My Deviant - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Power Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 You have created - probably accidentially - an selection. If so, you only can paint, write and adjust within this selection. With the short cut "CTRL+A" you have selected again the whole canvas, which finally allowed you to write everywhere. Read this, this helps a lot if you are new to this software: http://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/en/index.html Quote - My Gallery | My Deviant - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misling Posted August 15, 2008 Author Share Posted August 15, 2008 Ok that's makes sense....I pushed a lot of bottoms so I have probably hit a wrong one. Thx for the link... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
