Hi

i would like to know what means "Ci" in the filters module, and where to find them on the hard disk (they seem to be integrated to M8 ?)
How can I duplicate some of these modules ? (to be able to save the same filter with differents parameters in the 4 columns of the filters module)

thanks

CI means CoreImage. They are integrated into the architecture of Mac OS X.

where can I locate them in the system ?

As far as I know they are embedded in the OS and there is no way mess around with that.

I would like to save differents parameters for the same filter (in each of the 4 columns of the filters modules)
When I use 4 times the same filter (with differents parameters of course), it only saves the first column ..
When you re-open the document, the 3 lasts columns contains zero values ..

that's why I thought about duplicating the filter 4 times to use one of each in each column ..

do you have an issue ?
thanks much

I consulted David (or mega programmer man) and I stand corrected on the situation with the CI filters:

additional CoreImage filters could be installed as Image Units and are then located in :

/Library/Graphics/Image Units
or
~/Library/Graphics/Image Units

Current version of Modul8 does not ask CoreImage to load these plugins.

Standard CoreImage filters are embedded in the QuartzCore.framework ...

nm -a /System/Library/Frameworks/QuartzCore.framework/QuartzCore | grep -i pointillize

000d3e48 t -[CIPointillize customAttributes]
000b60c4 t -[CIPointillize outputImage]
001667bc t -[CIPointillize regionOf:destRect:userInfo:]
003c6ee0 S .objc_class_name_CIPointillize
0032ca3c s _kernel__pointillizeStep
003bd908 b _kernel_ptr__pointillizeStep

In regards to the save issue:

I have tested this several times using v2.5.8 saving the document and have had no problems with the custom values getting reloaded. Althogh I was using the L-Filters Ergo Mouse version of the filters module which I prefer using anyway.

Give that a shot?

I was using the L-Filters Ergo Mouse version of the filters module which I prefer using anyway.

could you explain the difference?
I tried it and it seems pretty much the same as the original filters module???

It is laid out differently. I prefer this layout because the filter list is larger.
