What is this

If all you need is just a shapes archive, go grab it there. In case I'll do plugins or anything else for Paint.NET in future - it also could be tracked there.

How to make custom shapes

Convert-Shape.ps1

PowerShell script to automate Xaml file conversion when making custom shapes for Paint.NET.

Look into Convert-Shape.ps1 for details on how to use it. There is also a bat file as a live sample of usage.

Custom shapes

Source files, editable with Kaxaml or XAML Studio or Visual Studio are located in "pages_" folders.

Ready to use Paint.NET custom shape files are stored in "mxi_shapes_" folders for convenience.

mxi_shapes_photo

Some shapes to assist in photo editing. There are some common grids, mostly related to Golden Ratio.

mxi_shapes_rulers_and_measurements

Some shapes to mark dimensions on images.

mxi_shapes_misc_grids

Some grids. Maybe someone will find some of them usefull too.

For many applications raster graphics editor is NOT the right tool, so this set is kind of experimental.

mxi_shapes_superellipse

Superellipse shapes.

  • 2.5 is a power factor of choice of Piet Hein, popularizator of superellipses;
  • superellipse with factor 4 is called Squircle;
  • factor 5 is used in iOS icon designs;
  • factor 3 is here just to fill the gap between other values.
