8ball Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 (edited) Hello, with version 3 of paint .net i used to rely solely (more or less) on Rectangle without anti-alias. I used it for quick and multiple brushes, because i draw in a style somewhat similar to 8 bit, so i need squared borders for my brush. In this version 4 i cannot do this, because rectangle is an object selectable (for resize, rotation, etc.) Is it possible to make Rectangle UN-selectable? OR: can i download last version 3.x somewhere? Thank you Edited July 11, 2014 by 8ball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I'm not sure what you're asking for ... Why not just press Enter after you draw the rectangle? Or press 'Finish' in the toolbar?

8ball Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 I could do that, but i was used to draw something like 2-3 rectangle per second in some part of the drawing. Clicking on Finish or hitting Enter wouldn't be the same... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Why not use a custom brush?

That way you can draw with the right hand and commit with the left hand. 2 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...

8ball Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 Custom brushes are similar to what i need, but not exactly the same, because every brush stroke would have the same size (until i manually change brush ize). Also, i'd need to draw perfectly straight to keep the rectangle shape. Hitting Escape every stroke would be frustrating when i'm going fast. Thank you, i hope to find 3.5 somewhere in the web!

Cc4FuzzyHuggles Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 (edited) You can turn anti-alias off . It's part of the tool's options in the toolbar, which is just under the menue bar. Perhaps that would help you with what you need? Edited July 18, 2014 by Cc4FuzzyHuggles Quote *~ Cc4FuzzyHuggles Gallery ~* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
