Paint.NET v2.5 Beta 3


Recommended Posts

Paint.NET is image and photo manipulation software designed to be used on computers that run Windows 2000, XP, or Server 2003. It started development at Washington State University as an undergraduate senior design project mentored by Microsoft, and is currently being maintained by some of the alumni that originally worked on it. It is meant to be a free replacement for the MS Paint software that comes with all Windows operating systems. The programming language used to create Paint.NET is C#.

Here is a list of additions, changes, and fixes:

* German translation is more complete (95%)

* Removed the help file temporarily while we redesign and rewrite our help system (hence the much smaller download)

* Improved GIF save quality with ability to configure dithering amount

* Text Tool now allows you to move text around before you commit it to the layer

* Text Tool's rendering now uses GDI instead of GDI+, which results in much more consistent (better) quality

* Text Tool is now optimized for dual core and dual processor systems

* Optimized memory usage in some areas

* Performance improved in some areas

* Selecting a font or font size from the drop-down list now properly resets input focus back to the canvas

* Tool shortcut keys were working in an unexpected order in some situations

* Print command now available from the Windows shell when you right-click a TGA or PDN image

* Fixed a bug that was preventing unattended installation from setting the installation directory

* Miscellaneous rendering and crash bugs fixed

* Assemblies (DLL's) are now strong named
