  1. Why is Paint 3D only showing a black canvas?


    I've been trying to access Paint 3D to be met with a black canvas and no art work loading in. I've tried all suggested fixes and nothing has seemed to work. these include checking for updates, resetting the app through settings and even uninstalling the app and redownloading the app; none the listed have resolved the issue. I know I'm not the only laptop user having issues with this issue as back on the 7th February a user by the name: BhaweshGelot raised the same issue with nothing working to fix the issue and exactly one year later the issue is still apparent with this app.My laptops current

    How do I customize the size of Paint 3D’s Canvas?

    In Paint 3D, I can click "Canvas" icon,

    then can drag the canvas' corner to change the size of the canvas.

    Why  is Paint 3D only showing a black canvas? 20c4f905-54b5-4281-82b5-9f53015a8470.png


    Now I wanna each time while opening Paint 3D or using it, its canvas can have a fixed custom size of matching my mind.

    How should I do?

    Take Paint as an example to clearly explain further:

    We know, we can easily customize the size of Paint’s Canvas, as for me, I can use Notepad to create a batch file named
    ResetPaintView.bat, which reads as follows:

    reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Paint\View" /f /v BMPWidth /t REG_DWORD /d 0x00000021

    reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Paint\View" /f /v BMPHeight /t REG_DWORD /d 0x00000016

    (Why is its size set to so small? because I frequently paste the screenshot to Paint, so need it become small enough.)

    then save it.

    Each time use it, right-click on it and then run it as administrator.

    This is the way that customize the size of Paint’s Canvas.

    Now I wanna that Paint 3D also can customize the size of its canvas just
    simply as in Paint
    .

    Please help me.

  3. Paint 3D Text

    Step 1: click the Text tab in Paint 3D

    Step 2: On the right pane that appears, under 2d text, click the 3 text 'T' symbol

    Step 3: click on the canvas then type your text

    Step 4: click outside of the text box

    Step 5: use the anchors to adjust the depth and angles

    Step 6: to see your 3D text better, click the object then click Edit color, choose a different color.
