alphaamanitin Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Sorry I just downloaded this 3 days ago. Exactly where do I find burn and dodge in the new version, I can't seem to find it with the pic posted. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkbark00 Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Dodge and Burn tools are not available in Paint.NET. The "Color Dodge" and Color Burn" referenced in the picture are Layer Blending modes that determine how a layer interacts with the pixels located in the visible layers below it. To access the Layer Blending mode you have to double click of the layer for which you want to make the change, then you will see what is in the screenshot above.

pranavy Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I feel that using Dodge & Burn as layer blending modes is not as convenient as using Dodge/Burn/Smudge tools in Photoshop. Are we looking forward for such functionality in PdN OR am I missing to see some hidden stuff? I am new to photo editing (as a hobby) and evaluating all the software I can for my comfort level. So do not take me wrong when I say something in support of some other photo editing tool. Thanks in advance - Pranav. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilNeko Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 A lot of these 'tools' take a lot of time to program. Time a lot of the people doing this for us, -for FREE- don't have that kind of time. Deal with it. Make a new layer, put in the colors you want to use the 'tools' on and where, then change the layer properties to burn or dodge. And there is your solution. ~EvilNeko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Chill out EvilNeko. In something like version 4, the new rendering architecture should allow something as simple as choosing the Paintbrush tool, and then choosing "Burn" or "Dodge" as the blending mode in the toolbar. This would affect how the brush draws on to the layer without requiring that you change how the layer affects the composition.

Crazy Man Dan Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 *psst* [Alt]+[F4] is the Windows shell shortcut to close the current program.

And there is your solution.~EvilNeko First, let me thank you for suggesting the work around solution. Everyone here knows that PdN is for free and is a result of huge development effort by some committed developers. But, that does not mean it has to stop where it is and expect its users to do anything with what is available only. Better remember that being a user of PdN, even I feel happy and proud when PdN becomes one of the most wanted programs on planet earth. I tried to be as soft spoken as possible. Sorry for any harsh tone you may feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
