Paint.NET 5.0.8

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 5.0.8 changelog:

Improved: The primary/secondary dropdown in the Colors window has been removed. The active color is now indicated in the color box itself.
Improved: The Colors window will now remember whether it's in the expanded state (More vs. Less).
Fixed: In the Colors window, left clicking in the color wheel or the color palette will always set the active color, and right clicking will always set the inactive color. This was not always consistent before.
Changed: The key for centered shape drawing and uniform resizing has been changed from Ctrl to Alt so that it does not collide with zooming with the mouse (Ctrl + Mouse Wheel)
Fixed: The keyboard shortcut for previous/next tab is now Ctrl + Page Up/Down, to match other applications
New: You can now use Ctrl + Shift + Page Up/Down to move the current tab left or right
Fixed: The printing UI is now run out-of-process, which should fix a slew of reliability problems (hangs, crashes)
Fixed: The "Add Color" button in the Colors window was often showing the wrong color
Fixed: Effects -> Noise -> Median was incorrectly causing transparent pixels (#00000000) to turn into slightly transparent, almost black (#01010101)
New: Primitive structs (e.g. RectInt32, Vector4Float) now implement IParsable (for plugin developers)
Fixed: UnaryPixelOps.Invert now works correctly, which was broken in the 5.0 release (for plugin developers)
Updated the bundled DDSFileTypePlus plugin to version 1.12.1.0, which, which improves support for swizzled BC3/DXT5 normal maps (e.g. DOOM 3), and support for loading textures with an incorrect DDS_PIXELFORMAT size (e.g. FlatOut 2) (thanks @null54!)
Updated the bundled WebPFileType plugin to version 1.3.18.0 (thanks @null54!)
