Vicne Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 Hi, I mainly use Paint.Net as a swiss army knife to edit pictures or screenshots, and most often, the first thing I do is crop the image. However, even after using Paint.Net for years, I always find myself opening a picture and then immediately "dragging" a selection rectangle... then I realize that the drawing tool was selected and I have just drawn an ugly line through my picture :-), then I have to undo, click the selection tool and start again. Not a big deal, and I thought I'd get used to it... but it seems not. So I was wondering : would it be possible to do something among the following suggestions : - Make the 'select' tool the default one (but you might argue the program is called Paint.Net, not Crop.Net) - Make the default tool upon startup a preference - Remember the last tool used across sessions That wouldn't probably save a huge amount of time, but at least a bit of frustration each time I open Paint.Net :-) Keep on the good work.

Sarkut Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 (edited) You can set default. No remember-last-tool-used currently. http://img256.imageshack.us/img256/8784/tooldefaults02.png Edited May 28, 2010 by Sarkut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Brown Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 The icons are in: C:\Program Files\Paint.NET\Resources\en-US It's mostly a hack, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
