BoltBait Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Wait... you're saying plugins designed and written for Photoshop aren't working in Paint.NET?! This plugin for Paint.NET only supports .8bf filter plugins.

Is there a specific plugin you are having issues with? 16 hours ago, BoltBait said: This plugin for Paint.NET only supports .8bf filter plugins. It would also depend on the specific 8bf filter plugin, some of them will not work in 3rd-party host applications.

NinthDesertDude Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 (edited) Can you update the version of this effect in the plugin pack? It does not appear under the Effects folder if installed from there. It does appear if installed from here. Tested on PDN versions 4.3.10 and 4.3.11 on a clean install without other effects. The installer from the plugin pack drops the correct files in place, so I'm guessing it's just that those files are old versions. (Edit note: If I checked that it's ONLY the plugin pack version that has this problem, I'd have written this over there.)

null54 Posted January 11, 2023 Author Share Posted January 11, 2023 Release version 2.0.0. This release requires Paint.NET 5.0. Changes: 8bf filters can now write outside of the selection. Filters that do not request to render outside of the selection will have the output image clipped to the selection mask in post-processing. Note that some filters may ignore the selection entirely (e.g. Luce 2). 8bf filters now have access to the document DPI information. 8bf filters now have access to the document EXIF and XMP metadata. 8bf filters now have access to the document color profile. PSFilterShim is now built as a self-contained .NET 7 application. Fixed a bug with the selection mask scaling. Fixed an issue with the floating selection mask that is used to display transparency in older filters. The OS color picker dialog is now used instead of a custom Windows Forms-based dialog. Improved the speed when searching for filters on startup. Fixed the dialog high-DPI scaling. Added a Diagnostics tab with various logging/troubleshooting items. 3 1 Quote Plugin Pack | PSFilterPdn | Content Aware Fill | G'MIC | Paint Shop Pro Filetype | RAW Filetype | WebP Filetype 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panchdara Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) Retracted error as this error was a result of user (me) running beta version of PDN. PDN 8407 did not prompt stating new version of PDN was available. All good with 8410 (release version) of PDN.

Thank you! Excellent work. Question then. What happens when another beta is released? Will your plugin work with that, or is it 8410 specific? Thanks again. Happy New Year.

That filter still crashes with a heap corruption error, but PSFilterPdn will now show an error message when it does. Release version 2.0.1. This release requires Paint.NET 5.0.

Fixed the Effects folders searching when PSFilterPdn is installed in a sub-folder. Technical details about the freezing issue (if anyone is interested): PSFilterPdn 2.0.0 and earlier would make Paint.NET the parent window of the 32-bit filter dialog, even though it was running in a separate 32-bit process. This appears to have caused the OS to think that Paint.NET is covered by an invisible modal dialog if the PSFilterShim process crashed. Raymond Chen has a blog post on cross-process window ownership: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20130412-00/?p=4683. To fix this I changed PSFilterShim to show its own window that the 32-bit filters use as their parent window.

null54 Posted January 29, 2023 Author Share Posted January 29, 2023 @user.by I took a deeper look into that heap corruption crash. It appears to be a regression in .NET, something is enabling the OS termination on heap corruption feature for the PSFilterShim process. That plugin works fine in version 1.0.8.2 of PSFilterPdn, which is built against .NET Framework version 3.5.

null54 Posted January 30, 2023 Author Share Posted January 30, 2023 @user.by I filed an issue about this in the .NET Runtime repository on GitHub: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/81342 I also found a workaround that allows the filter to run: Patch the filter(s) with FilterMeister FM Patcher utility. Ideally there would be a way to disable the termination on heap corruption for the PSFilterShim process. But if that is not possible I am considering trying to detect if the filter is one of these older FilterMeister-based filters and providing an error message that links to the FM Patcher utility. 1 Quote Plugin Pack | PSFilterPdn | Content Aware Fill | G'MIC | Paint Shop Pro Filetype | RAW Filetype | WebP Filetype 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
