Installing a plugin

A plugin is a folder you put in a Disguise project. There is nothing to run, no licence key and no account, and there is usually no need to close Designer.

Installing

  1. Unzip the download. In it is the plugin's folder, called GN_ and the plugin's name: GN_ToDo for To Do, GN_AspectRatio for Aspect Ratio. Beside it is INSTALL.txt, with these steps.
  2. Move the whole folder into a Plugins folder. Which one decides where the plugin can be used:
    • For one project, that project's Plugins folder:
      d3 Projects/<your project>/Plugins/GN_ToDo
    • For every project on the machine, the common folder's:
      d3 Projects/common/Plugins/GN_ToDo
    If the Plugins folder isn't there yet, create it. If the plugin is in both, Designer uses the project's copy.
  3. Open it in Designer. Click Plugins in the title bar, and choose the plugin.

A plugin in a project's own Plugins folder travels with the project, so everyone working on that production has it too.

Upgrading

Download the new version, and replace the plugin's whole folder, wherever you installed it, with the new one: delete the old folder first, rather than copying over it. If the plugin is open in Designer, close it and open it again.

The latest version of every plugin you have is in the customer portal, where you sign in with the email address you used to get it.

Help

Each plugin has its own guide under Help, the ? in its top bar. Disguise's own guide to plugins is at help.disguise.one. For anything else, or to report a problem, email [email protected] with the plugin and its version.
