Config-file PluginGroups.conf

Post by deifl »

Hello,

I found the configuration file named PluginGroups.conf in the '~/.config/Bibble and AfterShot Plugins' (Linux) and wonder what can I do with it. It contains one section (General) with 4 listed plugins. The order of the plugins is the same as in ASP in the 2 plugin-tabs, but I have 7 plugins (including Black and White Plugin).

What can I exactly configure in that file and how? The order of the plugins? How can I find out the names of all plugins for this config-file?

Regards
greerd

This link should help, I think it'll work for ASP.

In Bibble i configured the tabs the way you mentioned (with the customToolsUI.txt in ~/.bibble) and if you follow the link to the bibblelabs-forum http://support.bibblelabs.com/forums/vi ... 62&t=19388 you recognize that it still works in ASP with the customToolsUI.txt. Furthermore the content and structure of the 2 files (not only that they are in different places) is completly different.

I do not know what it is used for, but typically Qt tends to use the .config tree to store layout stuff fr Bibble and AS.

Anyone running WIn7 get this to work? I've tried, but ASP seems to be ignoring the file. I'm probably missing something obvious. I would REALLY love for this method to work--I've been sorely missing the ability to really customize the layout since Bibble 4.

Works like a charm on my W7 box.
Anything interesting in the debug log?
If the file is used, it will be noticeable there:
