paint.net 5.0.8 beta build 8611
Summary
This is a hotfix for 5.0.8 beta (build 8610) that fixes a crash when adding layers. In addition, inconsistencies with left/right clicking for selecting colors have been ironed out. The Colors window will also remember whether it was expanded (More vs. Less) across app sessions. Offline installers, portable ZIPs, and deployable MSIs are available over on GitHub. • 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) • 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!)
