my plug-ins for Alien and eye candy aren't working on my new Designer Pro X

Hi, I just purchased Designer Pro X and have it all set up and it is working admirably; So then I installed my eye candy 4000 and my alien skin xenofes2 and they seemed to download perfectly but don't seem to work properly. I was in the process of applying the weave effect to a photo and even though when the window opened and I applied the effects I wanted and clicked the apply button nothing happened. I'm sure it's not the software because I still have installed in my Designer Pro 11 and both plug-ins are working, so what am I doing wrong. Thanks.

it could be - there have been some major changes in the way photos are handled ix XDPX

fisrt step is always to right click on xara and run as administrator once

with plug-ins some need a layer beneath the one you are operating on

are the alien candy plugins 32bit - xara is now 64bit and not all 32bit plugins work... they should in theory, but...

all that said I don't use these particular plugins, maye someone else still does - have you downloaded the latest plugins rather than the ones you used for XDP11 because if so it is possible the plugin manufacturer has stopped supporting xara products...

Hi, and thanks for the advice. I think I may have a corrupted file so I just restarted the software and the problem went away.

that can happen ;)
