Adobe Filters in Flexi Pro 8.1v1

[PMG]

Can Adobe Filters be added to Flexi along with the ones that are already in Flexi?

 

[mbarden]

Yup. They are accessable with your regualr filters. You need to make sure they are going in the default location. I have some Alien Skin filters that I apply in Flexi 8.1v1

Also you must have a bitmap selected before they show up.

Coming from the Mac side and 7.7v2. Never been able to have flexi pickup any other than specialty ones I loaded into photoshop. CS2 or 3.

Have to load in Photoshop - designate file path in flexi preferences to adobe plug -ins.

I cant even get the plugin i put in flexi to show up in Flexi even working with a bitmap !!!!!! What folder do you all put the plugins into?

You can use the preferences to point to the adobe plugins.

Yes, you are locating them correctly. And it would appear that version 8 is still no better at picking up and using the stock PS plugin filters. I think I'll continue our move to creative suite. Flexi still cuts the heck out of vinyl though...

I can get the Photoshop plugs to work ,but cant get Flexi to load Illustrator plugins, like the drop shadow to work!!!

I did the same thing originally and flexi never did see them. So I put them in photoshop cs2 and set preferences to adobe plugins. Mine work but will not print correctly or show up correctly in flexi 8 (and that is why I upgraded from 7.6). They work great in photoshop though.
