wacher Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 What would be the best way to deal with this? Using brush comes to my mind, but it's very laborious, is there a better way? I saved it in jpg hoping compression would fix it, but it did little change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixey Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Are you referring to the line running on the top of your image? TBH I don't a jagged line.

Rick Brewster Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 The dotted line?

wacher Posted February 17, 2022 Author Share Posted February 17, 2022 I'm referring to the line that goes like this, you can see bits of lighter pixels, it's a bit more visible on the whole image since I posted just a small part, It's not that visible if you don't look for it, but still not clean work.

Red ochre Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I'm still not quite sure what you mean either. Try changing the 'Antialiasing' quality.

wacher Posted February 18, 2022 Author Share Posted February 18, 2022 The line is where the new rotated background meets with old, preserved background during rotation, it leaves a visible line if you look closely, I marked it with black line on the second image. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red ochre Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Ah - At least now I understand what you mean now but sadly cannot offer an explanation and cannot reproduce (I'm still on 4.3.7, sorry @Rick Brewster).@wacher what build are you using?

Rick Brewster Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 It just looks like what you're moving into that location doesn't line up with what's already there. It doesn't mean the app is doing something wrong.

otuncelli Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 (edited) I think there is no intention of a bug report about the app OP is aware of this line is not a bug (I think). He/She just asks how to make it invisible. Edited February 18, 2022 by otuncelli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJW Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Two things that might help are to make the edge of the pasted object somewhat jaggy and irregular, instead of being absolutely straight, and to apply BoltBait's Feather plugin to make the edge blend better with the background layer.

More appropriate tool from this plugin seems to be Blur Selection Edge, too bad it only blurs inwards the selection and not both inwards and outwards, the effect could be a lot better.

_koh_ Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Duplicate the layer instead of preserving background, rotate the foreground layer, soften the edge with width 20 hardness 0 ish eraser, then marge them. I think this is the easiest. If you still have the original image, set it as the background layer then use the eraser. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It blurs the edge. https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/EraserTool.html You can duplicate / marge layers in Layers Window, and the normal blending layer just does fine. https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/LayersWindow.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
