oma Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 first make sure you have the most updated version of paint.net second the most updated version of the plugin. third are you sure you are using the same outline each time. there are several effects with that name. are you sure its pyro's outline that's not working or is it Boltbaits? as those kind of problems seem very similar to the bugs that were fixed in BoltBaits plugin. :wink: viewtopic.php?f=16&t=22819 Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deejaytu Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I'm sorry guys, I was using BoltBait's outline, not pyro's, I messed up everything very much... I had newest version of PDN and older version of BB'S outline, I guess that's why it wasn't working... then I thought that updated I've BB'S outline, instead I've updated pyro's xD I am sorry for everything... I've downloaded BoltBait's Plugin Pack and replaced everything and it works now! Thanks for help, regards deejaytu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nytingale Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Hi Pyrochild I'm currently editing manga (japanese comic) as a hobby. I was advised to use "Outline Object" to put white borders around my text. Like this: But its ended up like this... ^^;; : Please Please give me step to step instructions on giving texts white borders and making the layer transparent, so it actually looks like the original one (just translated into english). I've played around with it for hours now and i still cant get it going ^^;; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrochild Posted December 11, 2008 Author Share Posted December 11, 2008 Create a new layer for your text. Set your primary color to the color you want the text to be (black). Run the Outline Object plugin. Set the color to the color you want the outline to be (white), and adjust Width to preference and Softness settings until it looks good.

Nytingale Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Ahh... i get it! For some odd reason i used the plugin, "Outline..." under "Stylize". ehehehe ^^;; I've found it now. I was wondering where the "width" and softness" settings were, and when i was looking for those i found "outline object" Ok im sorted!! Thanks lots!! ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blooper Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 You need your primary color to be fully opaque for OO to work.

superkingt Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Hey Pyrochild, I was wondering if it was possible if you could add a "Roundness" slider to set how round the edges are on the object, because sometimes it's better to have sharp edges. Here's what your plugin does. But sometimes it looks better with nice sharp corners. Thanks, SuperKingT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrochild Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 I'll look into it. 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...
pyrochild Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 As a workaround, you can check the Angled and Both Sides options, and run the plugin twice -- once with Angle set to 0.00° and once with it at 90.00°.

Matt101840 Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 I got an error, could it be because i am using windows vista? error code: File: L:\Paint.Net\Effects\Outline Object.dll Effect Name: pyrochild.effects.outlineobject.OutlineObject Full error message: PaintDotNet.WorkerThreadException: Worker thread threw an exception ---> System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: 'System.IServiceProvider PaintDotNet.Effects.Effect.get_Services()'. at pyrochild.effects.outlineobject.OutlineObject.OnSetRenderInfo(PropertyBasedEffectConfigToken newToken, RenderArgs dstArgs, RenderArgs srcArgs) at PaintDotNet.Effects.Effect`1.OnSetRenderInfo(EffectConfigToken parameters, RenderArgs dstArgs, RenderArgs srcArgs) at PaintDotNet.Effects.BackgroundEffectRenderer.ThreadFunction() --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at PaintDotNet.Effects.BackgroundEffectRenderer.Join() at PaintDotNet.Effects.BackgroundEffectRenderer.Abort() at PaintDotNet.Effects.BackgroundEffectRenderer.Start() at PaintDotNet.Menus.EffectMenuBase.<>c__DisplayClassb.b__8(Object sender, EventArgs e) I even tried running paint.net as an admin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remii9512 Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 The best plugin ever, in my opinion. Very handy indeed, I use it almost every time i start up Paint.Net. Great job you did there. Quote Trolololol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thebuilderddd Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Download pyrochild's plugins $USD $ GBP £ EUR € JPY ¥ CAD $ AUD $ Effects -> Object -> Outline Object... The area around the object you want to be outlined must be transparent. In other words, it should be on its own layer. edit: this is the three-thousand, three-hundred and thirty-third post in the Plugins forum. 3333rd! Ok, I just have a question... Where do I unzip it?

Frontcannon Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 This is incredibly versatile, using the angled option can create amazing stuff, definitely one of the essential PlugIns out there.
