kelaklub Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I realize that this is still a beta version but I wish to to mention a few things... -> The Selection Tools Hitting the escape key no longer gets rid of the selection. -> The Unsaved Changes dialog Whoops sorry, made a mistake here. so it's not S and D. I guess it's the S and N key. Can the dialog at least somehow indicate these keys. What's with this Save, Don't Save? What happened to the simple Yes, No, Cancel. I have been able to work very effeciently with Paint.NET by using in some case just the keyboard. The Y and N keys for Yes, No were at least more seperated but the S and D keys for Save, Don't Save are too close together resulting in more accidental hitting the D when I meant to hit S. -> Under the File Menu, for Acquire What happened to Acquire from selection, has it been moved? I can't find it anymore. Other than that, love the program. Just please don't lose sight of the fact that the keyboard is also a very important tool to a designer/artist along with the mouse.

kelaklub Posted December 7, 2006 Author Share Posted December 7, 2006 There is some discrepancy here... Acquire from selection--> Edit->Paste in to New Image Steps: Draw some scribbles, whatever in Paint.NETDo a rectangle selectHit the Print Screen key on your keyboardPerform Edit->Paste in to New Image How can we distinguish between a rectangle select and acquire from clipboard?

Rick Brewster Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I don't see what you're asking ... if it's on the clipboard, then Paste will grab it.

Can the dialog at least somehow indicate these keys. Just like any other Windows dialog ... if you started it via the keyboard, the access keys will be underlined. If the access keys are not underlined, which is what happens if the dialog was invoked via the mouse or other methods, then you can press Alt to show the access keys. http://blogs.msdn.com/oldnewthing/archi ... 92913.aspx Quote The Paint.NET Blog: https://blog.getpaint.net/ Donations are always appreciated! https://www.getpaint.net/donate.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I need to go back and look at the older Paint.NET versions, but I thought there used to be an "acquire from selection" and "acquire from clipboard". Thank you for your help.

Thank you for your help. Nope, there was never a "acquire from selection." Just do copy, then paste in to new image (used to be acquire from clipboard). WIth the keyboard shortcuts it's nice and fast, Ctrl+C then Ctrl+Alt+V.
