theHydra Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Hello, I'd like to take the image of the Christmas lights and make it conform to the curve of the green line. I've been banging my head against the wall trying to get it to work. Hopefully, that's enough info. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eli Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 I am afraid you will have to draw your bulb ligths and place them one by one over the green line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theHydra Posted December 4, 2018 Author Share Posted December 4, 2018 I'm not sure I understand how I'd do that. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eli Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 You can draw a bulb light and then copy it to the clipboard and then paste it over the green line on an empty layer. I drew a red bulb. You can also change the color of each bulb using the color adjustments provided by Paint.net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixey Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 You can also move the light bulbs from your original image. 2 Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.

HyReZ Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 (edited) Maybe in a future update to Paint.NET it will be possible to and additional nodes to the Line / Curve Tool so that you can make it better conform to a longer or more irregular path.

HyReZ Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 There are a couple of plugins that allow for the creation of multi-node line / curve paths.

Nice job on the video, Pixey....I just learned from it that you don't have to click on "copy" when cutting something to paste it onto another area.
