chrisco97 Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 I posted a tutorial a few days ago on a graphics site, and one of my friends were going to do it. But, they can't find the "Selection" tab under effects. Here is what I am talking about: It just isn't there for him. He updated to the newest version, and his computer has all of the requirements. Any idea what is wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oma Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 he probably doesn't have boltbaits pkg of plugins installed. as they are what shows up under selection. tell him to download boltbaits pkg .... his effects list will auto fix to show selection then. edit for some reason that link will not show up. I tried re copying it here http://image.wetpaint.com/image/3/GEisQ ...

chrisco97 Posted February 23, 2010 Author Share Posted February 23, 2010 I fixed the image. And, he did install the plugins. Still not there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Oma is quite correct. Boltbait has three effects which reside in the Render>Selection menu, Bevel Selection, Outline Selection & Feather Selection. You can find them here: viewtopic.php?f=16&t=22819&start=0 Note that, as ususal, you will need to install then reboot Paint.Net for the effects to appear.

oma Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 you didn't say he made sure he unzipped that download are any of the other plugin in the pkg showing up? if not he may have run into the problem I had when I first started. My computor unzipped and put them within another file inside effects I had to copy them from the file my computor made automatically and paste direct into effects. also as EER pointed out Bolt Baits plugins require a reboot of computor before they show up. if those are not the problems the standard proceedure is to post a note in BoltBaits plugin download thread and he will help you out. I see you said he has latest version of paint.net but does he also have latest version of plugin pkg? they need to be done manually. ciao OMA Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david.atwell Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 If he's still having problems, have him register with the forum and ask himself so we don't have to use a third party. :-) Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...
