How can i change my standard ratio

[RickGrGamen]

if i start up my paint.net, is always opens a document with a 1000 x 750 ratio, is there an way to change this to a size of my choice.

There is no way to set the default size of a new image.

In the paint.net Documentation - click the icon top right - you will see at https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/FileMenu.html

 

"New
This creates a new, blank, single layered image. The single layer will be filled with white.

The default canvas size is 800 x 600 pixels scaled by the system DPI setting, or the size of any image contained in the clipboard."

 

The easiest way to define your own size is to:

• Creating a .pdn file with your preferred size and background colour, etc.
• Save this to your desktop or other convenient location.
• Use this icon to open paint.net with the default size you want.

 

You can set the file properties to be Readonly so that you can't accidentally save over it.

For greater ease of opening, you can pin the paint.net app icon to the Windows taskbar and then pin your preferred-size 'new' images to the top of its recently used files list.

Now you can create an image of your desired size with just a right click on the paint.net icon.

Here I illustrate the process of pinning a new .pdn 'default' image to the list:
