This is another small update that fixes a few bugs. It also optimizes the Image->Flatten command for multiple CPUs/cores.
You can either use the built-in updater from the Utilities menu, or go to the website and download it. There’s no need to uninstall the old version; that will be taken care of automatically.

Happy new year! Like I talked about last week, this update resolves some feature disparities in the Text tool between GDI (XP) and DirectWrite (Win7/Vista). It also improves overall performance, as well as the correctness and quality of the Move Selected Pixels tool, the Image->Resize function, and the Hue/Saturation adjustment.
You can either use the built-in [...]
While I’ve mostly been taking a break from working on Paint.NET in the short term, I have been slowly working on the next minor bugfix release. The biggest change will be with how fonts are handled with DirectWrite, for all Windows 7 and many Vista users.

I’ve been keeping track of the crashes and other issues that have been sent my way, and I have fixes for the most important ones. Some users have reported lag with the paintbrush tool … fixed. Some have [...]

The translations are done, the last bugs have been ironed out, and Paint.NET v3.5 is a few steps away from prime time. Officially this is a beta, but the final release is imminent.
Update: Looks like I mixed up the Russian translation, and it comes up in English. That will be fixed of course!
Anyway [...]
This update is focused on fixing a lot of small issues, ranging from performance to selection clipping. The full changelist, as usual, is over at the forum. Of note, the compression for .PDN files has been improved. For the tech-minded, I switched from the .NET-supplied GZipStream over to SharpZipLib’s GZipInputStream and GZipOutputStream.
At this point, the [...]
