This is the second public test release for v3.0. To install this from v2.72,
make sure that you enable File -> Updates -> Also check for pre-release
(beta) versions.
The preferred way to get this is by using the built-in updater. From within
Paint.NET 3.0 Alpha 1, got to the Help menu and then click "Check for
Updates". Or if that doesn't work, download it straight from here
Since version 3.0 Alpha 1, the following changes (and more) have been made:
New: Merge Layer Down command in Layers menu and Layers window
Changed: A version of the Unsaved Changes dialog is now also shown when
closing just 1 unsaved image, instead of the old fashioned Yes/No/Cancel
MessageBox
Changed: Alpha Blending and Anti-aliasing buttons are now split-buttons,
with different icon and some descriptive text
Changed: Shortcut key to open the MDI overflow list is now Ctrl+Q, instead
of Ctrl+Space
If an important installation file is missing, Paint.NET will try to repair
the installation instead of crashing
256x256 icon format is now compressed, dropping EXE size by 150K
Fixed: a bunch of crashes that users were reporting
Fixed: "Load from toolbar" in Choose Defaults dialog did not
pick up the active tool
