Tillerman Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 I believe that there is a button in Paint.NET that renders a grid on screen, and is useful for the alignment of assets, however, nothing can be done with it, in a image. Is it possible to somehow, adapt this button to render a grid that is useful in an image? Quote My Internet Explorer 8 Concept....

david.atwell Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Not without Rick doing it. Plugins can't do anything with the Paint.NET interface other than add lines to the Effects or Adjustments menus, or to the Filetypes box.

devine Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 I like this plugin, but is there a way to make it so the borders aren't so thick? I am trying to make a grid with boxes 2 pixels wide but with the 2 pixel border it is too fat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erandall Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Madjik, Does David's response about Rick making the grids interactive(?)--instead of the image it appears to be--mean no 'snap-to' functionality? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A the bottom-right corner, Paint.Net gives you the x,y positions of the cursor. You could also use the cursor arrows (up,left,down,right) to move it more precisely. With the shift key you could add some constraint (horizontal,vertical,some chosen angles) when you draw a line. The menu view suggests to set or not the rulers. With the grid plugin, you could add a layer, draw you own grid you like and place it as a guide. You could press F and adjust the opacity....

dodgecroft Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Hey Guys So far so good, thanks! Been using Paint.net for a few years now and really enjoying. Have a question though related to the plugin... The grid seems to be in pixels. I'm working on a project at the moment where I'm using "mm" but the grid and ruler don't match up anymore. Yeah yeah, I know I should be using autocad. Is is possible to change the grid units in mm? Thanks in advance 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaker Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 I concur with dodgecroft. Nice plugin, but an option to change units to mm would be even nicer. Thank you for V2 as it is though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gshillitani Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Is there a way to make the individual cells of the grid function independently? What I want to do is click on a particular square in the grid with the fill tool and have it fill only that square. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cc4FuzzyHuggles Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Have you tried making your grid, then use the fill tool but adjust it's tolerance? Quote *~ Cc4FuzzyHuggles Gallery ~* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trimix Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 is it possible to add the option of magnet grid ? thanks a lot for this plugin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midora Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 is it possible to add the option of magnet grid ? thanks a lot for this plugin. I guess you are not looking for a feature which can be handled by a plugin. If you like to get a feature which snaps objects to a grid while you are drawing then you should make a suggestion in the 'Paint.NET Discussion and Question' section.

creamlapine Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 (edited) Does this also have the ability to snap to grid points? If not could it be added? Edit: Noticed a post above, just to clarify, I need to draw something not position it, so I need to be able to snap to a grid point, draw a line, snap to another grid point, etc. So the PseudoSnap plugin mentioned would not help there.

scryer52 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I see no one has answered this question for you Creamlapine. I too, would like to be able to do this. How about some help here guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Your best bet is ShapeMaker (link in my signature) with the grid feature turned ON. The grid itself cannot be modified, so you can't set the grid size. The Shape can be zoomed in and out to get around this. 1 Quote ebook: Mastering Paint.NET | resources: Plugin Index | Stereogram Tut | proud supporter of Codelab plugins: EER's Plugin Pack | Planetoid | StickMan | WhichSymbol+ | Dr Scott's Markup Renderer | CSV Filetype | dwarf horde plugins: Plugin Browser | ShapeMaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
