The PSFilterPdn plugin for Paint.NET can run both 32-bit and 64-bit filters.

Although as the plugins are launched from within the dialog of PSFilterPdn, the "middle man" problem exists for both 32-bit and 64-bit plugins.

• Added an error message for filters that do not support processing completely transparent images.
• Fixed multiple Windows Imaging Component issues with meta data.

Version 1.0.0.5 has been released. Changes: Fixed a regression in the scripting code from 1.0.0.4. Added a class for the host to set the filter properties (Title, Caption, Ruler units etc). Added a .NET 4.0 Client Profile binary. Added a wiki page describing how to debug filters under the Example Ho...

Added an example host application.

This is a 32-bit and 64-bit host similar to SigmaPi NiGulp.

It uses Windows Imaging Component to load and save the image, it can load any image format that has a codec installed (Camera Raw, WebP etc).

Only BMP, JPEG, GIF, PNG and TIFF are supported for saving.

Great! But it would be even better to have a DLL version of it that can be accessed from C/C++ and other languages. If you are using native C, C++ etc the host by DMMD would be a better fit, and it is probably more compatible with newer plugins as it implements the PICA suites. It would also be pos...

This open source (MS-PL) host library allows any .NET application built with .NET 2.0 or later to run 8bf filters. https://github.com/0xC0000054/PSFilterHost/ It supports Grayscale and RGB(A) in both 8 and 16 bits per channel. Processing 16-bit images only works using the System.Windows.Media.Imagin...

Selecting the histogram tab as a limited user crashes PSFilterPdn and Photoline 17.02 with status code 0xc000000d - "An invalid parameter was passed to a service or function".

The histogram works correctly in both programs when they are run with Administrator privileges.

Now it does not crash with the old ini files.

Email sent, the Repeat Effect crash was a bug in my code that is fixed in 1.0.4.5.

The debugger fails because Paint.NET and PSFilterPdn are built with managed code, the only way to debug a plugin would be to step into the code when PSFilterPdn is being debugged.

Unfortunately the new 64-bit demo crashes in filterSelectorStart before the dialog is shown,
although the previous version worked perfectly.

Additionally the Repeat Effect command fails for the 32-bit version.
