Li Do Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) How do I revert back to the previous version before this update on the 21st? I don't like having to ctrl alt z to rotate and the eraser/paintbrush circle disappears as I begin to erase. Don't like it at all. Can you please assist?

Or just use the mouse as shown below if you want simple rotation. See 'Rotation' on the Move tools page of the Documentation https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/MoveTools.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can turn off pressure sensitivity in the toolbar, the button is just to the right of Brush Size.

Li Do Posted January 23, 2023 Author Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) Nothing but "Antialiasing" is to the right of the brush size. The rotate use to be attached to the "Move Selected Pixels" (Curved arrows at the corners) Thank you Edited January 23, 2023 by Li Do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highlighted it in red so it's easy to see. Did you look at the Documentation to see how to use it? Are you saying that for your installation of 5.x that rotation using the mouse does not work?

Li Do Posted January 23, 2023 Author Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) Yes. The rotation arrows are no longer present. There I have little squares on the sides of the selected, but circles on the corners. In your documentation sides and corners have squares. Arrows disappeared with the newest update. I did look through your documentation. I appreciate your aid. Edited January 23, 2023 by Li Do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 @Li Do, that doesn't even look like Paint.NET 5.0. The canvas background hasn't been blue in ages, nor have the grab handles on the N/S/E/W edges been squares since befofre 4.0. Please make sure it actually says "paint.net 5.0.1" in the title bar. It looks like you're using Paint.NET v3.5.x.

Some of the screenshots in the documentation (showing squares) are outdated. The nubs are now circles. However the rotation arrows in 5.x work the same way: Click the Move Selected Pixels tool (or just press M) and place the mouse pointer just outside of a nub as shown in my post above and in the documentation. If you are using 5.x then the arrows will appear. Edited January 23, 2023 by Tactilis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How crazy. So sorry. Will let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Li Do Posted January 23, 2023 Author Solution Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) Thank you both so very much. That was the issue. The last update to my old version messed it up. I thought every time I updated it updated the version. So sorry to have wasted your time. Thank you again! So happy now. You can delete this my part of the thread if you wish.
