More details about these bug fixes can be found in the full release notes.
#Pinta linux update#
Several bugs were fixed in this update to also improve the Auto Crop functionality, the Pencil tool, the Text tool, the Shape tools, the Move Selected Pixels tool, as well as to address some crashes and other annoyances. On top of that, the new update introduces a more user-friendly dialog when attempting to open an unsupported file format and updates the About dialog to allow users to easily copy the version information to the clipboard for bug reporting.Īmong other noteworthy changes, Pinta 1.7.1 improves the error messages when the user doesn’t read or write permissions for a file, improves the tooltips for tabs to also display the full file path, makes switching between tools that share the same shortcut more consistent, and improves handling of memory allocation failures for large images. In addition, the Pinta 1.7.1 release lets users swap the primary and secondary palette colors by pressing X, as well as to move by a single pixel in the Move Selected Pixels and Move Selection tools using the arrow keys, and constrain an image to a uniform scale when scaling via the Move Selected Pixels tool with the Shift key. The new release is mainly a bugfix update, but it also brings some new features like the ability to scroll the canvas horizontally by holding down the Shift key while using the mouse wheel or the ability to zoom in and out of an image without pressing the Ctrl key. Last year, I wrote about Pinta getting a massive update after 5 years of silence, and now Pinta developers inform about the release and general availability of Pinta 1.7.1, the first point release coming more than fifteen months after Pinta 1.7.
#Pinta linux for mac os#
Pinta requires Mono and is available to download for Mac OS X, openSUSE and Ubuntu. Some adjustments and effects, such as invert, sepia, black and white and Auto level, are also included. The developer notes that, due to infinite levels of Undo, Pinta memory usage will keep growing, however, future versions will mitigate the issue. Pinta features a number of drawing tools, such as a pencil, paintbrush, selections and eraser, support for multiple layers and a full history, with unlimited levels of Undo/Redo.
Pinta is intended to be a simpler alternative to GIMP.īuilding on his previous experience porting Paint.NET and after just one month of development, Pobst released version 0.1 of Pinta. Pobst says that he got the idea for the Mono-based image editing application over his holiday break when he read a story that said that "there was a need for something like Paint.NET for Gtk". Novell open source programmer Jonathan Pobst has developed Pinta, a simple painting application for Gtk modeled after Paint.NET.
