Mick Berg Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Hi Is there a way to change the default file type in the Save As dialog to .jpg? I never use .png and it's annoying to have to change it every time. Thanks Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toe_head2001 Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Sorry, there is no way to change the default. (September 25th, 2023) Sorry about any broken images in my posts. I am aware of the issue. My Gallery | My Plugin Pack Layman's Guide to CodeLab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ego Eram Reputo Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Because 'many' people don't understand how data loss occurs when you save an image as a JPG. Rick (Paint.NET Developer) does. For this reason, he treats your image data with a great deal of respect and makes the default loss-less.

I know this is enough to users and it looks awesome I still dont get it why your opinion crosses out all kinds of other user cases.

ReMake Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Many years ago I printed photos edited in one of the popular photo editors and saved in jpg format (the original photos were in png format). Then the quality of the photos was quite satisfactory to me. Later, when I decided to retouch these photos, I was very disappointed with the appearance of artifacts. The original png photos were already lost by that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know the answer, stop litigating it. This has been asked and answered many times and it will not change. Do not bring this up again. Quote i need fast to save all 600x900 images to JPG with different compression from 94 to 98% There are plenty of other programs out there that can do this.
