de-em Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 hi i wish to know why in paintnet once you get off a layer, it seems like you cant go back into that layer to edit it once again, i am looking for some sort of layer unlock feature, like what we have in other editting applications, but once you draw a a thing in paintnet, you can select that thing to move around or so...am i wrong here , someone pls show me the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Brown Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Draw the rectangle on a new layer and then resize the layer to edit. Apart from that, there is not much advice I can give. Paint.NET is a raster graphics editor, not a vector editor. For a vector editor try either InkScape or one of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
