Apokolypzex Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 My Paint.NET is slow/laggy when trying to draw pixel by pixel lines or move the mouse around. This started after the last paint.net update. This is occuring even on TINY pictures (100x100 pixels) with no layers. I am using a completely stock Paint.NET, no plugins System: Intel i5 4700k Nvidia GTX970 16GB DDR3 RAM Paint.NET installed on SATA SSD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixey Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Please try this: Go to Settings - top right side of the canvas and click on the cog wheel Then uncheck the box Hardware accelerated rendering (GPU) Hopefully that may help. If not, please post back 1 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.

Apokolypzex Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Have unchecked, experiencing the same lag as before. Its like Paint.NET is about 500ms-1s behind the windows cursor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toe_head2001 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Are you using a G-Sync monitor with you Nvidia card? Quote (September 25th, 2023) Sorry about any broken images in my posts.

HyReZ Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Does this happen only with PDN? Can you draw in Paint or some other app without the lag? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-Sync windowed mode is known to cause all sorts of problems with everything, including Paint.NET. 1 Quote The Paint.NET Blog: https://blog.getpaint.net/ Donations are always appreciated! https://www.getpaint.net/donate.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apokolypzex Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 No G-SYNC monitor, and the lag is specific to Paint.NET. I can draw in microsoft PAINT with no lag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Well it could be something you've changed in your NVIDIA control panel. I'd first look there for anything non-default. The lag is likely not Paint.NET specific, and will probably happen in any other application with similar technology characteristics. Direct3D / Direct2D, runs in a window, in particular. MSPaint and Paint.NET are about as far apart, technologically, as is currently possible ... I would not compare them.
