Texa only works for GUI but no on output

[AndiB]

Hi everybody.

I have a problem with Texa.
I can load an overlay image (signature) and see it on the screen, but not in the final output (jpeg or tiff).
I am runnting the latest ASP Version and texa 1.0.3 with the replacement Texa.so to get png to work, since I run it on linux.

Any ideas?

Cheers.

can you post your AfterShotPro.log file?
corel changed some pipeline settings with the two latest versions. so texa is now maybe behind the pipeline step 'WorkingToMonitor'. i had have the same problems with some of my plugins, too.

Hi TinTin,


here we go. Opened ASP, selected an image which has Texa applied, created an jpeg output and closed ASP.

Thanks a lot for taking the time!!!

yeah.... in line 419 to 423 of your log-file you see the root cause of your problem.... (this is a crop of the order how the different pipeline stages are placed)

Code: Select all

0.645: 47 :  "zShadowFilter"
0.645: 48 :  "zFrameFiltera"
0.645: 49 :  "zTextFilter"
0.645: 50 :  "WorkingToMonitor"
0.645: 51 :  "TexaFilter"


the Texa plugin is indeed placed behind the pipe stage "workingToMonitor", but this stage and all behind is not executed when you make an output, because it will be written in a file not to the monitor....
there is an update of Texa needed to fix that.

SadMan,

if you fix that, it could make sense to place Texa even before zText (maybe zFrame and zShadow as well), otherwise people will not be able to write text on Texa-layers....

Is there any other way how I could influence the pipline without an update of Texa?

THX,

Where did you get it ? I'm interested in very much !

[AndiB]

You can find it in the old bibble forums as posted also here in the new ASP forums.

Try this :http://support.bibblelabs.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=98&t=15467&p=101060#p101060
or search "Texa png"

Cheers.

Does anybody know if sandman has any plans to update Texa to work with 1.1.0.30?

Cheers, Andi.

[Gerard2]

is sadman even a member on this forum? I think he did the last update from the bibble forum....

[Gerard2]

apparantly not....

so after a great update (?), a very useful plugin has been crippled for no apparant reason......

[AndiB]

Is there any chance that I could get the source code?

I am by no means a experienced programmer but I could at least try to debug te existing code.


Cheers Andi
