More than four plug-ins?

Beitrag von jl_678 »

Hi,

I am a happy user of PL and just found out that I had a copy of Topaz Suite sitting around. (Yes, lucky me!) The suite includes 8 image editing plugins and as I understand it, they will work with Photoline. This is great news except when I go Options/Extended/Plug-in Modules, I only see the option to add four plugins. Am I indeed limited to only four plugins? This is difficult when Topaz provides 8. I am hoping that I may have missed a setting somewhere.

Thank you in advance.

JL

No, you are only limited to 4 folders. Of course you can put several plug-ins into a single folder.

Furthermore there's an option to search for plugins in all subfolders of the configured folders, so you can have more folders than four, given they have the same parent(s).

Just add the "Topaz"-folder to the settings and mark the check-button "search subfolders"! You dont need to add every single subfolder of Topaz-folder!

P.S. Just now i see Twindaddys post: he said it already.

Gents,

Thank you you very much for the clarification here. I was confused about the plugin design and did not realize that you could select an entire folder or range of folders vs individual .8bf files. Thank you for setting me straight. It is working perfectly now.
