Paint.NET 4.1.2
#11
Quote:Paint.NET 4.2.9
 
paint.net 4.2.9 - released on January 31, 2020
This updates improves performance and significantly reduces memory usage, adds two new translations, and fixes a number of small issues.
  • Reduced overall memory usage (commit size) by up to 1/3rd by eliminating the per-image scratch buffer

  • Greatly improved performance when finishing actions of most tools by employing a shared cache between the render and commit code paths

  • Reduced memory usage when working with many tools by consolidating homogenous tiles (those that are comprised of a single color value)

  • Significantly improved performance of most history actions (commit, undo, redo) by switching from NTFS compression to multithreaded LZ4 compression for history files

  • Significantly improved performance of undo/redo with very complex selections (e.g. from the Magic Wand tool)

  • Improved performance of Image -> Flatten (also affects flattening when saving)

  • Improved performance of the Invert Colors and Desaturate adjustments by disabling hardware acceleration for them (too much overhead in copying tiles to the GPU for such trivial rendering kernels)

  • Improved performance when saving by moving thumbnail rendering for the File -> Open Recent menu to a background thread

  • Reduced memory usage when printing, and removed a rare crash that was related to its use of the (now removed) scratch buffer

  • Improved performance of effect rendering when a complex selection is active (improved caching)

  • New: Added a "busy spinner" to the canvas when using the Magic Wand and Paint Bucket tools

  • New translation: Hebrew (HE)

  • New translation: Slovak (SK)

  • Fixed a really goofy crash that required drawing with the paintbrush and, without letting go of the mouse button, moving the mouse into the toolbar and then using the mouse wheel to change the brush width

  • Fixed a layout bug with the image list button

  • Fixed an error that prevented saving some images as JPEGs if they had EXIF Interop metadata (PropertyNotFoundException)

  • Fixed a crash when running on a CPU that supports AVX but with an OS that is configured to not support it (via bcdedit /set xsavedisable 1)

  • Fixed a crash when pressing the spacebar after switching to a tool but before it has received any mouse input events

  • Fixed a rare crash when opening the Levels adjustments with certain types of selections

  • Fixed a crash when checking for updates with an expired alpha/beta build

  • Fixed a crash (FileLoadException) when DLLs are not updated correctly by the updater

  • Updated WebPFileType plugin to version 1.3.2 (thanks @null54!)

  • Updated DDSFileTypePlus plugin to version 1.9.9. This adds support for X8B8G8R8 and R8G8B8 formats, and fixes a visual glitch when previewing cube maps in some formats. (thanks @null54!)

  • New: Added 2-bit per pixel support when saving as PNG
  • New: Added 1-bit per pixel support when saving as PNG, BMP, and TIFF
  • Fixed low-bit-depth saving quality (8-bit, etc.), as it would sometimes produce very bad results (e.g. only using 64 colors instead of 256)
  • Fixed: Resizing an image at very large sizes (e.g. 32K pixels to 64K pixels) would fail due to an arithmetic overflow
  • Fixed: Sometimes recently saved images would not have an updated thumbnail in File Explorer unless/until its window was manually refreshed
  • Fixed: Sometimes saving an image to a network share on a network share would not work
  • Updated bundled DDSFileTypePlus plugin to version 1.10.4.0, which fixes an issue when loading and saving images using the sRGB color space. This issue was reported here:

  • New: "Tolerance Alpha Mode" toggle button added to the toolbar for the Magic Wand, Paint Bucket, and Recolor tools. This permits switching the algorithm for color comparison between premultiplied (default) and straight. "Straight" will distinguish between transparent pixels with different color values, whereas premultiplied will see them as equivalent.
  • New: Holding Ctrl while using the Color Picker tool will sample from the merged image (vs. just the current layer)
  • New: The file name in the title bar will now have a prepended asterisk when it has unsaved changes
  • Changed: The image close 'X' button can now be clicked for images that are not currently active
  • Changed: In the Text tool, Ctrl+(Backspace, Delete, Arrow Keys) has been improved to work more like Microsoft Word. Thanks to @Bruce Bowyer-Smyth for the patch!
  • Fixed: The Rectangle Select tool, when used to draw a constrained, fixed ratio, or fixed size selection, will now correctly clamp the rectangle to be within the canvas
  • Fixed: Layers -> Move Layer Up/Down/Top/Bottom was not working for images with fewer than 3 layers
  • Fixed: Edit -> Erase Selection will now fill with transparent black (#00000000) instead of transparent white (#00FFFFFF)
  • Fixed: Custom Shapes will now be displayed in a consistently sorted order
  • Fixed: ".pdnSave" ghost files should no longer linger when saving to the desktop. This was due to a bug in Windows and File Explorer.
  • Fixed crashes due to DXGI/Direct3D "lost device" or "device removed" errors that can happen for various reasons (duck/undock, driver update, low memory, etc.)
  • New: Plugins can now use the IArrayPoolService, a wrapper around .NET's ArrayPool, to optimize their array allocations
  • Updated bundled AVIF FileType Plus to v1.1.6. See the pdn-avif releases page on GitHub (https://github.com/0xC0000054/pdn-avif/releases) for more information.

  • Fixed an error when trying to save images that have transparency at 8-bit color depth
  • New: Effect -> Color -> Quantize, which applies palette reduction to 256 colors or less, along with dithering. This is the same algorithm used when saving images at 8-bit color depth or lower.
  • Fixed and improved palette generation when saving at 8-bit color depth or less
  • Greatly optimized performance of palette generation and image quantization
  • Added option to choose between Octree (default) and Median Cut algorithms for palette quantization when saving at 8-bit color depth or less
  • Fixed a crash in Move tools when the selection was 0-width and/or 0-height
  • Added tooltips w/ shortcut keys to the Tools dropdown in the toolbar
  • Fixed IndirectUI ColorWheel rendering (thanks @toe_head2001!)
  • Fixed a crash in the Text tool when using Ctrl+(Left,Right,Backspace,Delete) (thanks @Bruce Bowyer-Smyth!)
  • Changed: New layers are now filled with #00000000 instead of #00FFFFFF
  • Fixed a crash when working with selections (OutOfMemoryException)
  • New: Effects can now access the Document’s DPI via EffectEnvironmentParameters.DocumentResolution
  • Fixed drawing of the color palette in the Colors window when using some non-standard DPI scaling settings (e.g. 1.15x)
  • Fixed a crash when using EdHarvey’s Threshold plugin
  • Fixed the return value from PdnRegion.GetBoundsInt() so it’s not anchored at (0,0) unless it should be
  • Fixed premultiplied-to-straight color conversion on some code paths (thanks @null54!)
  • Updated bundled AvifFileType plugin to v1.1.11.0, which includes performance optimizations and bug fixe
