Seamless Texture Maker (ymd:100718)

[MadJik]

Hi, this is a really cool plugin. It seems to me that it would be one of the most handy plugins available IMO. I was wondering though it it was possible for it to do the following (And maybe there's a setting that I'm missing).

1) Have it expand the canvas size when it mirrors things. If it's 20 X 20, it would then be 40 X 40.

2) Is it possible to perform a half drop with this plugin? This would be TREMENDOUSLY helpful. I don't know if everyone knows what a half drop is, but it can be looked at like a 5 domino, where each dot is an image.

Thanks Again for a really cool plugin (Among others).

Thank you for your comments.

1) With zoom capacity it won't be anymore a seamless texture maker, I think. Or only in few cases... BTW your could use [ctrl]+[shift]+Z and then use the zoom on the layer...

2) Sorry I don't get it but it makes me think to the kaleidoscope plugin... if it could help you! (or if you could provide me some rule/formula about this I could have a test)

Merry Christmas to All!

 

I do a lot of tile, fabric and pattern design and I use the Seamless Texture Maker a lot for years.

 

Thank You MadJik!

It appears that your version of Paint.NET is outdated, the plugin requires Paint.NET 4.0.6 or later.

Thanks null54, i'm just downloading the latest version (4.1.5) and installing it. 

[Chicken_Legs]

Now working.  Thanks very much for your help.  Merry Xmas!

Awesome plugin!! When I use it twice in a row, it gives a great digital paper seamless tiling effect...I'm still trying to find BoltBait's Seamless Tile Helper in my menu...

[Chicken_Legs]

When i use it twice, it reverts to the original image!  Please can you tell me the settings you use for each transition?  And do you have to start with a square image?  I'm trying to make a tiling seamless image of the one attached.  I can get it to be seamless but how do you tile it?

[Pixey]

Yes, I'm sure it would help to start with a square canvas.  You may want to take a look at @Red ochre's Plugin:

It seems that you have a version of Paint.NET that’s about 3 months out of date. 
 

Please make sure that you’re using the latest version of Paint.NET.

 

See rule 7 for more info.

You may get a warning when you try to download, but it IS safe to download it.

Put the .dll into your Effects Folder, if you have the classic version of paint.net.

We are now on v 5.0.9 (as @BlastOfBN) said, and it's best to keep up with the newer versions.
