Paint.NET 5.0.7

Paint.NET

Paint.NET is an image and photo manipulation application. Every feature and user interface element was designed to be immediately intuitive and quickly learnable without assistance. In order to handle multiple images easily, Paint.NET uses a tabbed document interface. The tabs display a live thumbnail of the image instead of a text description. This makes navigation very simple and fast.

Usually only found on expensive or complicated professional software, layers form the basis for a rich image composition experience. You may think of them as a stack of transparency slides that, when viewed together at the same time, form one image.

Many special effects are included for enhancing and perfecting your images. Everything from blurring, sharpening, red-eye removal, distortion, noise, and embossing are included. Also included is our unique 3D Rotate/Zoom effect that makes it very easy to add perspective and tilting.

Adjustments are also included which help you tweak an image's brightness, contrast, hue, saturation, curves, and levels. You can also convert an image to black and white, or sepia-toned.

Paint.NET 5.0.7 changelog:

  • New: Ctrl+Shift+Page Up/Down can now be used to switch between tabs
  • Improved: The selection highlight is now hidden when the Layer Properties dialog is open
  • Improved: The Move Selection Tool will not be forced to commit its state when the image is being saved, thus preserving history entries
  • Changed the icon for Contiguous mode (Magic Wand and Paint Bucket tools) to have better contrast with the icon for Global mode
  • Fixed: Shortcut keys are now listed for the tooltips in the Layers and History windows and for the selection combine modes in the toolbar. The help text for the Magic Wand and Paint Bucket tools also notes that holding Shift will use Global mode.
  • Fixed the Edit -> Copy and Copy Merged menu items from being incorrectly enabled when no image is open
  • Fixed an issue where the selection highlight would not appear in some cases
  • Fixed some rare rendering artifacts for GPU plugins when using the CPU for rendering
  • Fixed an infinite loop when using BoltBait's Apply Mask twice, on two separate images with a different number of layers
  • Removed the /setenv command-line parameter
  • Updated the bundled DDSFileTypePlus plugin to v1.11.9.0
