paint.net and channels

[debra_s]

Hi, sorry for the newbie question, but I recently downloaded paint.net and I can't seem to find a channels tab. Are there channels in paint.net?

thanks

There isn't a channels tab in Paint.NET, but there is a Channels plug-in you can download from this forum. I'm not sure how well it works because I haven't tried it yet. You can use the Paint.NET search to find the plug-in.

After you download the Plug-in restart Paint.NET (if you have it open at the time the plug-in is added) and you can find it under Adjustments after you open up Paint.NET.

There are also many other color adjustment plug-ins available here: Color Match, Color Mixer, Color Balance, and more. :wink:

If you don't know how to install a plug-in then visit this thread: http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2023

Glad to help. :wink:

Not as such, though you can manipulate the channels through Adjustments like Curves or Curves+. I'm assuming you mean RGB or CMYK channels, and not Alpha. Is this what you mean?
