Unfinished plugins

[xod 413]

Thanks @welshblue.
I'm glad you find them useful. Impressive image! 

 

I also thank to @lynxster4 for the nice words and to @Seerose for the image.

 

Thanks all for the rep points.

This is an experimental plugin.
You need the two OptionBasedLibrary v0.7.9 files.

You can place it where you want by editing the Align+.dlc file.
In order to do that you need to change the extension to .txt

Open it with Notepad and edit the line:
AlignEffectPlugin.SubmenuName=your choise
Save and change the extension to .dlc

Replaced with new version.

 @xod!

 

Thank you for sharing this with us!  
 

[lynxster4 2,561]

This is nice @xod, but it overwrites the one you wrote with @MJW, which I use all the time.

The coding needs to reflect that you are calling it 'Align+'.

Thanks!  

[xod 413]

That shouldn't happen.

For testing I placed it in the Object submenu.
In my case, the new plugin does not overwrite the existing one.
You probably have a different version of Align Object than the official one.

 

[lynxster4 2,561]

And you are correct @xod.  I have an older version of the plugin because it loads it directly under Effects, which is where I want it because I use it often. 

 

[Seerose 3,996]

 @xod!

 

I have Windows 7 and it doesn't work for me.
Because I have another "Aligin" plugin.
Is that why you think?  

[xod 413]

@Seerose, to answer you I need more information.  Be more specific.

The original post was named Align.Zip which opened to reveal align.dll

This is my finished Align plugin. I will not post it on the Plugins - Publishing ONLY! thread because there is already Kris Vandermotten's, which is extremely fast even on very large canvases.

Thank you very much to MJW who helped me a lot. I learned a lot from him.

 

The UI:

 

And here is the dll file:

 

►  Align.zip   ◄

 

Your latest post may have the label Align# in the code, but the DLL file is still named align.zip which opens to Align.DLL and overwrites the old one when placed in the effects folder.

 

Hope this clarifies for @Seerose

That's the problem. The dll file needs to be named 'Align+' so it doesn't overwrite the other one.

I think that's the problem. as @lynxster4 says!

 

[xod 413]

Okay, I understand that people don't really use the official version (Align Object) because it's in the Object submenu.
So, I changed the name of the .dll

[AndrewDavid 623]

1296931056_Align.zip is what your change created. Windows The Forum software may not like the "+" in file names.

xod-align.dll?

[Reptillian 109]

xod-align-plus.dll?

[lynxster4 2,561]

A .dll will accept the 'plus' (+) sign.  Look in your Effects folder and see how many you have.

 

@MJW, @ReMake, @pyrochild and more have used a plus sign.  

[Seerose 3,996]

 @xod!

 

Thank you very much. It's all right now.  

 

[lynxster4 2,561]

Thank you for renaming @xod!   

[xod 413]

I updated the Align + plugin. See the first post.

 

The code below does not belong to me, I just adapted it for PDN.

Thank you @xod for updating Align+!  

 

The code you posted brings very interesting results. Thank you for adapting it!  

 

 

 

A lot of things can be done with this.

 

[Seerose 3,996]

 @xod!

 

Thank you so much for the new version.  

[Seerose 3,996]

 @lynxster4!  👍 

 

What a magnificent colors!  Thank you for sharing your result!

The code below provides information about the object on the canvas.
It seems to work correctly in all situations where the object is on a transparent layer and even if the layer is full of color.
However, if I have an filled area of 10000x7500px and even for smaller values of the surface containing a transparent vertical strip as in the image below, the error 'A new guard page for the stack cannot be created' appears and Pdn crashes.
I can't figure out how to solve this.
