nagoodman Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Can someone please tell me how to successfully get plugins to work with AP. They show up under the Filters/Plugins but they don't work. Specifically I've tried Topaz Studio and Akvis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted December 1, 2020 Staff Share Posted December 1, 2020 Hi nagoodman, Are they listed in the Filters menu but greyed out? Check if you are working with a 32bits image. If so convert it to RGB 8 or 16 bits (menu Document > Convert Format/ICC Profile). Most plugins only work with RGB 8/16 bit images.

Staff MEB Posted December 1, 2020 Staff Share Posted December 1, 2020 Hi nagoodman, Assuming you have a pixel layer selected and the filters are available from the menu, what happens when you try to run one of them? Any error message, the app freeze, nothing happens? What OS are you running and where did you buy Affinity Photo? From the Affinity Store or from the Mac App Store/Windows Store (depending on your OS)?

nagoodman Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 It is a pixel layer. I checked and the apps are through the App Store. I am running Mojave 10.14.6. I don't get an error message on Topaz, nothing happens. I do get a message with Akvis and they are looking at it from their end. I just have never been able to get any plugins to work with AP. Thank you for responding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
