pstein Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 When I start PDN then I always have to adjust the window size and position of the main windows (and sub-panes). This is annoying. Is there a way to tell PDN to automatically remember this information at exit and to use them at next startup? Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midora Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 This should work out of the box. So tell us more about you Paint.NET version and your OS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 The default positions are snapped into the corners of the editing window Tools = top left History = Top right Layers = bottom right Colors = bottom left Where are yours appearing?

pstein Posted May 18, 2015 Author Share Posted May 18, 2015 I am usnig paint.net v4.0.5 under 64bit Win 7. @Ego Eram Winner: Yes, the 4 default positions are as you told me. When I resize the main window the sub windows follow. But this has nothing to do with the fact that Paint.Net does not remember size and position of main window. Where should Paint.NET store the current pos+size? In Registry or preference file? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pstein Posted May 20, 2015 Author Share Posted May 20, 2015 Ok. As I found out Paint.dot writes the change win pos + size into registry but does NOT read it later (at next restart). I think this is a bug. Possibly its because I start Paint.Net here from USB flash drive. it seems to me that Paint.Net does not recognize succesfully that there already exist some preferences in registry. Paint.Net should not only check if it is installed but if there are some usable preferences in registry. Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
