Greg135 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Hello there, I downloaded and installed the Shaped Gradient Plugin from here: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/19651-shaped-gradient-my-first-plugin/ Installed in the Effects folder as per usual. When I restarted PDN (several times) and I just can't seem to find where the plugin is. I have been through the Effects and submenus with a fine tooth comb each time but it's not there.... Should I be looking elsewhere? Or do you have any suggestions? Using Paint.NET v3.5.10 (Final Release build 3.510.4297.28964) Appreciate your help...

Red ochre Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Is the .dll version the same as below? - I think there are various versions in the download thread. If it's showing up in your effects folder it should be there under effects/selection, if not I can't think why? The version I've got is 1.3 - seems to work ok for me - I think some of the other versions (or the download) might have issues? (no offense meant nd - very clever plugin).

Greg135 Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 It's definitely in my effects folder.... My version is 1.5.3886.6574 Do you think I should delete it and re-download and install? Regards Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red ochre Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 I seem to remember that version 1.3 was the only one I had much success with, so I'd give that one a go - the link is somewhere in that thread. I would probably delete (or move) the 1.5 version. Good luck! Quote Red ochre Plugin pack..............

Just to check....upon firing up PDN and selecting Effects > Selections ....you are saying that Shapedgradient should appear as one of the options...is that correct?

Red ochre Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Yes, - Looks the problem is not straight forward, sadly? - If anyone else has any ideas I'm sure Greg would appreciate them.

Ego Eram Reputo Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Solved. It's definitely in my effects folder.... No it's not. See the last three replies in the Shaped Gradient thread.

Greg135 Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 This was entirely my mistake..... I placed the plugin into the wrong folder.... Thanks to qwertyuu, Red Ochre and Ego Eram Reputo... Regards Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
