Sur Affinitity je peux les installer mais pas moyen de les lancer et ils ne sont pas gris.

Zkoušel jste vypnout HW Akceleraci, případně změnit nastavení grafiky pro vykreslování?

Good morning,
I just tried disabling hardware acceleration. Same problem.
THANKS

Try to provide a screenshot with the application's "Performance" settings, if perhaps some setting or limitation in memory usage cannot somehow block the plugins.
Alternatively, try to look in the Task manager for the use of system resources (CPU, disk, tasks) if there is no clue. A record from Process Monitor (Sysinternals Suite) would also be useful, but that is a bit more complicated.

Edit: Have you tried installing the MSI/EXE version? - if running the plugin somehow blocks sandboxing and setting your permissions.
Alternatively, try running Photo "As administrator" if there is a problem with permissions.

Yes, nothing happens when I click to launch Gmic and I specify that it is not grayed out.

Do you have multiple monitors, or do you ever have multiple monitors attached to that system? If so, perhaps the plugin window is starting on a different monitor than you currently are using.

Also, in Windows Task Manager, do you have an entry like this one?

If so, then the plugin is running, and a failure to display the dialog is probably something you would need to discuss with its developers.

Attached you will find the screenshot of the performance section. I looked at the event viewer, there are no errors when I click on the plugin. I did some research into potential photo affinity errors. There is this error that appears when I make parameter changes.

If you can't get the G'MIC plugin to run correctly, you can alternatively use the G'MIC Online version here!

Thank you for this info.
Too bad I can't get it to work with Affinitty.
Happy Holidays

FWIW, when i try that on my Mac in Safari, it opens a window that says "Loading Picture..." across the top. If I click on the "Open File" button, I get a normal Open file window & I can select a file there, but after that the open file window closes & nothing happens. However, it works OK with other browsers like Firefox or Google Chrome.

Safari has a problem with the JavaScript code in the online tool's used "start.js --> loadContentScripts..." function, thus nothing more is happening there!

For Safari the JS code needs some slightly fixing (a rewrite of passed over arg type for runAt).
