Red ochre Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 This is great! (even runs on Pdn 3.5.11)Love the superquick progress-bar through the image and the ability to save palettes will be useful.As the colours are reduced the tones tend to get darker - presumably integers rounding down - or is it just my perception? If that is the case perhaps you could consider an option or control to bias the tone of the new colours?Good work - thanks! Quote Red ochre Plugin pack..............

TechnoRobbo Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 As the colours are reduced the tones tend to get darker - presumably integers rounding down - or is it just my perception? if you play with the divider (95 to 96 to 94) you'll see it re-rounds and re-interprets the shading.

Ego Eram Reputo Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Found a little UI rendering issue. The smaller lower slider is partially obscured by the text box above. 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...
TechnoRobbo Posted August 1, 2014 Author Share Posted August 1, 2014 Thanks Ego, I had to double up on reading glasses to see it. Half of the slider was covered. No doubt about it , I gotta get another pair of glasses. Quote Go out there and be amazing.

ThanosMassias Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Dear TR thanks for all your hard work. I noticed that pallete files created with this plugin contain line breaks that break long comment lines: ; paint.net Palette File ; Lines that start with a semicolon are comments ; Colors are written as 8-digit hexadecimal numbers: aarrggbb ; For example, this would specify green: FF00FF00 ; The alpha ('aa') value specifies how transparent a color is. FF is fully opaque, 00 is fully transparent.; A palette must consist of ninety six (96) colors. If there are less than this, the remaining color; slots will be set to white (FFFFFFFF). If there are more, then the remaining colors will be ignored.FFFCFCFC FFBDBDBD FF7E7E7E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 TechnoRobbo hasn't been on the forum for a few months. Your best bet is to accept that, for now, you need to manually edit the palette.
