Re: How Do I Install Photoshop Plug-in in Photo & Graphic 7?
Hi,
Open Xara Designer Pro...got to Plugins and open plugins> Select setup and browse to your folder ....download Plugins...select that then click 'create'...Xara will make a Xar info file. Now up on top select new and a fly out will open which if everything went correctly your plugin should be there.If not go to setup again and navigate to ...downlaod Plugins and see if that has sub directory...if it does then select that folder and then click 'create'. some times when you install plugins to your own directory the plugin installer creates its own directory within the one you chose.

On the Photo and Graphic Designer 7, there is not a button called "create". After I browsed to my folder, I clicked "ok", and then "apply". But it still did not show.

c:\Program Files (x86)\Xara\Xara-Photo_Graphic_Designer_7\Xara Picture Edtitor\PSplug-ins\Downloaded Plug-ins\
This just doesn't look right to me.
If your plugins ore in Downloaded Plug-ins folder then you need to set the path to that folder.
something like c:\Program Files (x86)\Downloaded Plug-ins\
or where ever your Downloaded Plug-ins folder is located.

Actually it's called 'Add Folder', Keith. Perhaps I can help with showing you via a short video of installing plugins in Photo & Graphic Designer 7?

Create and the info creation is for the Fill Gallery to create a PNG set of images for the fills your adding. The location of the plugins is not relevant. You just need to set the path to their location.

Thanks for taking the time to do the video. I have did exactly what you showed on the video (that is what I had been doing), but it still nothing new shows on the plugin menu. I when I click "new" and then look for the plug-in. I don't know what else to do now. But thanks for taking the time to help.

Then I suggest that the plugin files you are adding are not *.8bf types. Nothing will be added to your plugin menu unless they are.

It is a .8bf type. I just downloaded the "Luce" plug-in from this site: http://tutorialdb.org/a-z-of-free-ph...s-and-filters/
And it does not show. As far as I know, I have followed all your directions right; I am not sure why it is not working.

Luce installs fine following the directions I gave above.
Though it doesn't work in Xara because this filter requires an active selection marquee which Xara doesn't do (because it's a vector application not a raster)
The entry in the plugin list in Xara is Amico Perry

I followed the steps. For some reason, it doesn't work for me. I have tried to call the support phone number listed in my manual. It rang to Magix. They said they couldn't help me and to contact Xara. Xara doesn't have a phone number on their web site. I sent a comment for help on their web site and have heard nothing. I am extremely dissappointed in Xara at this point. I cannot get in contact with them for help. I wish I had never purchased this now. The store I bought it from doesn't take returns on opened software, and Xara won't respond to me. I feel like I just wasted my money.
