Anastasiy Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Hi! I'm Anastasiy, long time developer of various Photoshop plug-ins like MagicPicker color wheel and MagicTints, the machine learning color matcher. Me and my team are porting some of our tools to Affinity Photo and ran into coding troubles. Whom can I talk to regarding this issue? Do you have any forums/resources/support/information/other channels for 3rd party developers? I would be happy to talk to development team if it's possible. We are building software for Adobe platform for more than 12 years. Tried to reach out by email - never received any answers. Thank you!

John Rostron Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Your message would eventually be picked up by a Moderator and passed onto a Developer, but it is more likely to happen if you post in the Feedback for Affinity Photo on Desktop forum.

firstdefence Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Both of these plugin (Panels) will not be usable in Affinity Photo, Affinity can't use Panels. People need to understand that some "plugins" are actually Panels, Extensions or Scripts all of these cannot be used in Affinity products, they rely heavily on Adobe script which is pretty specific to Adobe products. It would be interesting to know if they could ever be used but I'm guessing the answer is no.

Anastasiy Posted March 6, 2020 Author Share Posted March 6, 2020 Cool! Thank you very much for the answers! Hopefully it will catch developers' attention in the end. 6 hours ago, firstdefence said: Both of these plugin (Panels) will not be usable in Affinity Photo, Affinity can't use Panels.

It's a C++ plugin, not a script. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what kind of arm and leg it takes to make sure it works 100%? Couldn't find any requirements or docs or event hints anywhere.
