Versie 4.3.3 van Paint.NET is uitgekomen. Dit teken- en beeldbewerkingsprogramma slaat een brug tussen het met Windows meegeleverde Paint en dure maar zeer uitgebreide programma's als Adobe Photoshop en Corel Photo Paint. Tegenwoordig wordt het programma ook via de Windows Store aangeboden, al wordt voor die versie wel een kleine vergoeding gevraagd. In deze uitgave is onder meer de overstap naar .Net 6 gemaakt. Hiermee zijn de prestaties flink verbeterd, maar dit luidt tevens het einde in voor de ondersteuning van Windows 7 en 8, die vanaf versie 4.4 zal komen te vervallen. De complete changelog voor deze uitgave ziet er als volgt uit:
New:Improved:
- The app has been migrated to .NET 6, which has improved both rendering and startup performance
- Catalan (ca) translation
- Corsican (co) translation
- Thai (th) translation
Changed:
- Various UI controls for Dark Theme, e.g. scrollbars (Win10 v1809+ only)
- Performance during the "extracting" stage of the installer by migrating away from Nullsoft Scriptable Installer System (NSIS)
Updated:
- The /createMsi command for the installer has been removed. Instead, you can now download MSIs directly from the GitHub releases page.
Fixed:
- Bundled AvifFileType to v1.1.17.0, courtesy of @null54, which updates the AOM version and fixes a crash when reading large EXIF blocks. See its GitHub releases page for more info.
- Download size on ARM64 by about 33%
- The way various UI controls look on Windows 11, e.g. buttons and drop-down lists
- The View -> Zoom to Window command when using the keyboard shortcut (
Ctrl
+B
), which was resetting instead of toggling the zoom level- A rendering bug in the Dents and Polar Inversion effects, as reported here.
