Mike Ryan Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Because it is an apparent Internet Explorer issue with an .XML. I had a problem happen like this a week or so ago, and so I just saved to a different directory and ran PdN with admin power. Not sure if any of that helped, but I was able to open.

pyrochild Posted April 26, 2008 Author Share Posted April 26, 2008 Internet Explorer is preventing PaintDotNet.exe from saving a .XML file to My Documents? How does IE enter into that equation at all? Quote ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Ryan Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I dont know. Maybe the same way Paint.NET enabled UAC* *Which I figured out why it did that btw! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Ryan Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Does it matter? It was my fault, and had nothing to do with Paint.NET. It was me adding plugins during the install or something like that. Vista thought something was threatening my install and kicked UAC on from what I was told. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oma Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I've just re read what the two of you were talking about and didn't understand one thing ""Mike" what the heck are you talking about? Pyro just wanted you to know I'm able to save xml files in 3d shape and load them so I'm thinking its in the xml function of this curves plugin.

Mike Ryan Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Why am I "Mike" in quotation marks? We were talking about inernet security and how it might affect your saving and loading issues and then got a little off the beaten track and discussed my UAC issue I was having a week ago.

oma Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 actually it was to get your attention Mike... as I couldn't follow in anyway shape or form what that had to do with the error message. and besides my hands are aching from arthritis today and its easier to use the baby finger to do the quote marks than to stretch us for the @ sign. ouch.

pyrochild Posted April 26, 2008 Author Share Posted April 26, 2008 Alright oma, I've made a special build of Curves+ just for you. It's version 0.2.5. (I just stuck a 0 in front ) If there's an error saving a curve, it will pop up a big, detailed message about why. Just take a screenshot and post it in here. http://www.mediafire.com/?kegx14extnv Quote ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it!

pyrochild Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 MMkay, I kind of know what's wrong... A little more investigation, then I'll get a fix out.

pyrochild Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 Fix has been posted. I think it was freaking out because the version number on the pyrochild.effects.common.dll was not exactly the same as the one it was looking for...

Tanel Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Could you change the way how control settings are handled: so that the curve(s) and check box states would NOT be stored for next use when I click Cancel? If you wonder what I mean then: open curves+, make some sort of curves, click cancel; then open again - curves are changed although I didn't accept it last time. It's quite annoying.

pyrochild Posted January 4, 2009 Author Share Posted January 4, 2009 I truly and honestly don't know what you are talking about. A) That sort of thing is handled by Paint.NET, not individual plugins (unless they're not written correctly) I never changed anything regarding setting persistence when I modified the original Curves effect source code. Any odd behavior in that department in Curves+ will be in Curves as well. Which it isn't. C) It definitely does not save it on my computer when I click Cancel. Can't reproduce this at all. Are you sure it hasn't been saved from a previous click of OK? Remember that if you click OK once, those settings will be the default every time after until you either restart Paint.NET or click OK again with different settings. You can click Cancel a million times, and the defaults will always be whatever it was set to when you last clicked OK.

Tanel Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 This is correct that original Curves behaves identically. But knowing how busy Rick is, I hoped you could fix it faster. Here is repro steps: The real-life situation is that I'm processing several images one after another and sometimes want to try same settings for different images, with little fine-tuning. 1. Say I made following curve suitable for my pic1: Clicked OK. 2. Now I want to try the same curve on my pic2. Open Curves+: Notice that check boxes are already changed, though that's not my main complaint. 3. With Curves+ still open, I want to fine-tune the previous curves because result didn't look that good. Let's bend the Red curve downwards. My image still looks bad, so I click Cancel (in order to restart Curves+, with "good" settings from pic1). 4. Open Curves+ again. Although I clicked Cancel in step 3 after modifying red curve, it still returns my "screwed up" curves! :x Note (to make it more confusing): If I click Reset before fine-tuning (step 3) then the further settings are not saved when followed by Cancel and step 4 really returns the curve I made @ step1 - as it always should. But I don't want to click Reset before fine-tuning previous "good" curve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pyrochild Posted January 9, 2009 Author Share Posted January 9, 2009 Sorry. School started again. Swamped. Already!
