EternalSorrow Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 I was curious if patterns which were originally meant for Photoshop could somehow be used in paint.net. Quote
david.atwell Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 How are the patterns saved? If they're in a standard image file, then sure.

EternalSorrow Posted March 13, 2008 Author Posted March 13, 2008 They are saved in a standard image format, GIF in this case. So how would one go about using them within paint.net? Do they need to be placed in a folder? Is there a plugin necessary to use them? Version: 3.2 OS: Windows XP Quote
david.atwell Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 Well, it's not going to be as automatic as it would be in Photoshop, but you have a few options. First is the Photo Flood Fill plugin. It'll allow you to place any image into the selected area, and it's available in the Plugins forum (searchable through http://searchpaint.net). Second is included with PdN out-of-the-"box." It's in Layers > Import from File. It will place the GIF on a new layer, and you can clone from it, erase from it to expose layers below or erase from layers above to expose it. Does this help?

EternalSorrow Posted March 13, 2008 Author Posted March 13, 2008 The photo fill plugin was just what I was looking for. Thanks for the assistance! Quote
