v4 plugin greyed out in CS2

[rgreene]

I have a filter plugin (.8bf) that I created with v4.0.1 of Adobe's SDK and that works with PSP versions 5 through 8 as well as PhotoDeluxe 1.0.

In order to test its compatibility, I just downloaded the trial version of CS2 and copied it to the \Plug-Ins folder. I find that while its unique Category name shows up on the Filter menu, it's greyed out, so I can't run my plugin.

Any ideas why that might be?

May be R-file contains wrong data?
Or you apply under unsupported format?

Where are many reasons for it.

Dimitry,

Yes, changing the EnableInfo property from:
"in (RGBMode)"
to:
"in (PSHOP_ImageMode, RGBMode)"
was enough to get it to work in CS2 as well as PSP.

Thanks!
