| Hi! Is it possible to use external third party effect filters like those from TopazLabs with ImageEn? |

As I can see from TopazLabs site it's a collection of 8bf plugin
filters. I don't know if newer versions of ImageEn support 8bf filters, but my version does not support.
To use 8bf filters with (for instance) ImageEnView, some coding must be done (plugins host) and not all 8bf filters will work correctly. Photoshop SDK for 8bf filters is quite obscure and, as I know, newest SDK versions are no more public available. There is however some VCL component that accepts 8bf filters and applies them on TBitmap, but I forgot the name
Anyway, I've made a little program that can execute 8bf filters on images loaded into ImageEnView/ImageEnVect. You can try if it works with TopazLabs filters.

Also, I will soon rewrite code for plugin host (C++ Builder) and if you want to make a Delphi version I'll send you a code. Current code version is not so "readable".

I have downloaded trial version of TopazLabs Adjust 5, installed it and loaded
tladjust5ps.8bf in NiGulp...it works. But, I'm not sure for other filters. |

I've made a small static library for applying 8bf filters on TIEBitmap image.
Here is the download link:
www.sigmapi-design.com/archive/sphost_imageen.zip
File contains library, header, read-me and one cpp unit (example).
Nothing fancy, but it works...on most filters I've tried.
UPDATE: I have uploaded a new version (2.2) and now it works quite solid. |

It seems I've upload it again. Link is alive.
@Yogi Yang: I have uploaded (temporary) Delphi version (rather old) of Photoshop host component (freeware). It came with GR32 library. I found it somewhere between components on my disk.
Here is the link:
www.sigmapi-design.com/archive/photoshop_delphi.zip
Note: I will keep this file for a few days and then I'm gonna remove it.
It's legal and it's freeware, but I don't want to use my site as other people's component archive.

hello spetric
Would you have any examples in Delphi to share that work with TIEBitmap.
Some or How to Start Development Documentation for Delphi.
Some Plugins tested with Your Software Pixopedia but unfortunately not Run.
Thank's for your attention. |

Hello Siniša.
Thank you for your answer.
Sorry to bother you, you could share a complete example with C ++ Builder, which compiles Something For Nothing not understand C ++.
Only a Form with a button to load an image and another button to load the filter?
Thank you again. |

Hi Wesley,
No problem. I'll create a small working demo with few filters that work and put the source code together with plug-in host source code (which is quite a mess).
Give me a few days, cause I'm currently on vacations :). |

Hello Nigel
Thank you very much for answering.
I'm adding support, with Tranquility.
A lot of code to translate to Object Pascal (Delphi).
I translated 4 Unit Only so far.
I have a little trouble with C++, Because I started to study 1 Year.
Best regards. |
