dpy's Plugin Pack (2014-05-04)

Thanks for the update.

This version is much slower than the previous.

I would suggest :

- to limit the text length to 500 or 1000 that would perhaps give better performance.

- also the reduction ratio of the font should be with decimals as the long text with ratio=1 is too quickly reducing.

I don't mind clipping the number of characters back even more.

I'm not at my personal computer at this time so I don't recall if there is an option to 'repeat' the given text ("Hello" > "HelloHelloHello...."). Would this be an option?

The bold above line is 172 characters including spaces, surely 256 would be enough?

thank you . your advices are so good for me .

I think also it is 256-500 enough .

The default of reducing and repeat set 1.

Might be better to change the multi-line text box.

I'll also check other text effects.

I feel so dumb. My son showed me how to drag the spiral exe file into Paint and it loaded, but.....it still does not take more than 65 characters or spaces. What am I doing wrong?

Read posts numbered #65 to #68 above.

@dpy is aware of the 64 character limitation and is actively canvasing for a more appropriate (larger) number of characters.

I'm sure he will have an update out quite soon that will allow more characters to be used.

Patience..... :D

Is there any way to only get 1 or 2 of the plugins instead of the whole pack??

Normally what I do, is download the .zip file, and open (not save) it. From there copy only the .dll files that I want out of the pack to the effects directory.

Whoops, sorry Del. I didn't see that you responded already.

6th set pack relesed

(add 3/11) source files Attached .

Sorry to be annoying, but I just downloaded the latest version of your pack for my new laptop, and your Black & Alpha+ plugin is not included in the pack. Is there somewhere else I need to download it from? Thanks.

Thank you for reporting error

However, this report I just can not be resolved.

Did you trying to do?

GDI + is very useful, however, is very complex.

I might need the help of someone.

You might need to set the EffectFlag.SingleThreaded flag as GDI+ does not work with multiple threads.

The small increase in performance you get coding in C++ over C# is hardly enough to offset the headache of coding in the C++ language. ~BoltBait
