Ego Eram Reputo Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Did you make a selection first?

Joey Carter Posted December 10, 2019 Author Share Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) nothing happens when tried, yes a selection is made... still having this problem crop to selection not working with "Ctrl + Shift + X" this has not been corrected with updates either Edited December 10, 2019 by Joey Carter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Just to clarify: you're pressing the Ctrl key, Shift key and the X key simultaneously? They need to be pressed at the same time, not sequentially. Can you swap out your keyboard to confirm it is not a hardware issue?

Joey Carter Posted December 10, 2019 Author Share Posted December 10, 2019 I have already tried keyboard swapping, no difference / no change... I am familiar with how the action should be performed eg: simultaneous holding of keys, or press and hold Ctrl key, Shift key and then the X key until all keys have been pressed.. I am new to the forum, but I have enjoyed using Paint.net for 15 YEARS. BTW the command works when selected under the image tab, and Ctrl, Shift, C, still copies a selection and I can paste that. Just miss having the hot-key(s) shortcut ability for cropping to selection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Nothing has changed in the code for this ... it works fine for me and others. So, a reasonable, logical conclusion is it must be that something has changed on your system :-\ (whether intentionally or not is, of course, unknown) 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...
Joey Carter Posted December 10, 2019 Author Share Posted December 10, 2019 what about a registry cleaner tool? possible? JC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it doubtful that a registry cleaning tool caused the issue. A more likely cause is that another program has registered a Global Hotkey for Ctrl+Shift+X. There's no way for us to know for sure, since we don't have access to your computer.

BoltBait Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 It works for me. So, I don't think it is a problem with Paint.NET. I'm guessing something else you have installed is hijacking that keystroke and not letting Paint.NET have it.

BoltBait Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Look over the list that EER provided above to see if you recently installed any of those programs. https://defkey.com/what-means/ctrl-shift-x 1 Quote Click to play: Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and how about a Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixey Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I had my Ctrl + D stop working for months on end and I could not find a solution. Then out of the blue it started to work again Weird!
