mgillespie Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 To the default tool. It seems by default, when you launch Paint.NET, having the freehand drawing tool, is a strange default. Even after using Paint.NET all this time, I still expect it to be the select tool... Anyone else think that changing the default tool to select would be a good change?

nitroke Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 yeah, this would be a good change. I have this problem too :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DenDem Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I think that this problem is not a problem . and free hand drawing isn't "strange" default , because Paint.NET is not ONLY editing tool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgillespie Posted March 30, 2006 Author Share Posted March 30, 2006 I don't really have any useability issues with Paint.NET, this 1 item it quirky. The amount of times, I draw a diagnol line my canvas, when I wanted to crop it down.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 ...I still expect it to be the select tool... I get caught by this all the time too. How about instead, having it remember the last tool that was used during the last session, and making that active on the next startup of PDN? And/or, an option in options to either do this or select your own favorite tool as the default. tk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgillespie Posted April 5, 2006 Author Share Posted April 5, 2006 Or even better, remember which tool you use most often. The problem with his intellisense stuff, is it confuses users. They wonder why it used to default to the fill tool, and now defaults to the selection tool, and raises support requests to change it back. I say keep it simple, just change it to selection tool, or give us a valid reason to WHY it defaults to the line draw tool, and leave it at that... Just my 2p worth.
