I can't get any of the presets to work. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Donna, pretty weird. Here is working fine. Have you verified if It isn't checked '[v] Show Original'. Have you tried to right click and use apply preset or click twice on the preset?

Hi Lucato,
I verified that 'Show Original' is not checked and I tried to right click to use apply preset, clicked twice on it and I tried it with just the Apply button in the lower right.

This is what I see in FF, but after I apply the preset, nothing happens to the original picture.



Also, when I try the default preset, nothing shows up in the center of the frame in FF. ??

Donna smile:cry:

Ops, I'll need to review that or add a better description. Donna, I checked It out and here goes the results:

To apply the 'default' preset or the presets that has no sample image behing it, try to create a new layer and apply it on a new layer instead of applying on the layer of the image.

About the 2nd presset (presets w/ the sample image), you cannot apply themt when the image is flatten (background). It needs to be applied as layer instead of background.

Try this way and tell me what happened.

Well, It worked. smile:) But, you would try to get the flatten image (background) and click twice on It to make It as a layer and after that try to apply the 2nd preset.

Donna, I got to fix some part of It. I mean, the 'Default' and similars. The others I'll need a help as I've posted here. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but we all are still learning.

This seems to only work correctly on square images. On a portrait, it makes a square frame, and below that it makes part of a square frame.

Yep it does say that in the filters info.... smile;) smile:D

This filter was created in FF1 which only had support for square images in some instances...

Beautiful frame and effect !

Could this be updated to use the NON square images ? How would you do that ?

Lucato could do it but he is nor here very often so I do not think he will be able to do it and update this filter to FF 3.0.
