NeoPaint 5.3.0 Update Released

Post by Neosoft Support »

NeoSoft has released NeoPaint version 5.3.0.

Current version 5 users can download a free v5.3.0 update patch from:
http://www.neosoftware.com/patch.html#npw5

Follow the instructions to download and apply the update patch.

New users can download v5.3.0 from:
http://www.neosoftware.com/npwdownload.html

This update contains the following:

Enhancements

 The status bar now shows position and size information whenever a selection/cutout is active. Previously, this information was only shown when the cutout was being sized or moved with the mouse.

Fixes

 The status bar now shows the correct pixel coordinates for cutouts when the picture’s zoom facture is greater or less than one.

 Fixed a problem that caused 16 color (4-bit) BMP images to become slightly corrupted when saved using RLE compression.

 Corrected problem that caused ‘JPEG’ to be set as the last used file extension when ‘JPG’ was actually the last used extension.

Thanks mishem. I think it has to do with the decimal separator being a comma instead of a period, but I'll add it to the list of things to correct in the next update.

Capture Webpage

Unable to make a capture. Windows10.

I do translation programs. Not specifically looking for. :oops:

Sorely lacking tool "Selection". :(

A wonderful program. I do not expect to see so many possibilities.
Of course not Photoshop, but it's a godsend for developing applications for home use and not only ...

The webpage capture problem is caused by changes Microsoft made to Internet Explorer for Windows 10. We experienced similar problems with NeoBook, so it shouldn't be too difficult to fix in the next maintenance update.

There are several types of selection tools under the scissors icon. What type of "selection" tool are you looking for?

As in Photoshop. And it is not enough to automatically create layers when copying / pasting.

It's just a resource file. Put in a folder next to the executable file NeoPaint.exe

I've used Photoshop quite a bit and I've never liked how its selection tool works, so I don't really want to emulate it. However, you can do the same basic thing with NeoPaint's layers, by pressing Control+A (select all) then use the mouse to move the whole layer.
