Ash Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Buy more RAM. Quote All creations Ash + Paint.NET [ Googlepage | deviantArt | Club PDN | PDN Fan ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Brown Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 This is probably more of a problem with your computer's available memory than with Paint.NET AFAIK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Ryan Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Hello! Welcome to the forums! For this problem, I recommend viewtopic.php?f=10&t=23125 Read it thru to the end, apply what you have learned, and compare the result with your total amount of RAM. Then come back to us :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harold Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 The limit is (2^16)-1 in either dimension, which makes for 16GB if you choose it in both directions. So, ushorts for width and height..? probably larger than you'll ever need though :wink: edit: I tested a 8192 by 8192 full-white picture but the PNG exporter threw an "unspecified error", why would that be?

Daddylonglegs Posted April 24, 2008 Author Share Posted April 24, 2008 Thank you, didn't even cross my mind that it could be the PC memory...have 4 GB Ram. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harold Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 If you have ridiculously much RAM (say, 32GB+? 'cause you need than the actual size for it to be allocatable as 1 piece) you could run into the maximum dimensions though (which is, as far as I've been able to see, 65535x65535, the "new" dialog does not appear to accept any higher values) Quote I would write plugins, if I knew what kind of plugins were needed..

david.atwell Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 There is an "out of memory error" post sticky'd in the Troubleshooting forum. :-) Take a look.
