I have quite a few Plugins installed but they are not all showing up when I try to apply a filter. Do I have too many? Is there a limit?

Re: too many Plugins?
Plug-ins are strange and wonderful beasts. I don't know of any limit to the number of plug-ins that you can have, but having tons of them can slow down bootup time for Photoshop.
A couple things to be aware of when installing plug-ins. Some are pretty straight forwared, just drag and drop into the Plug-ins folder. Other must be installed with the software package installer that puts stuff where it needs to go for you. Also, when downloading freebies and plug-ins from internet sites, make sure they are intended for your operating system. PC plug-ins won't work on a Mac and visa-versa. Some older plugins no longer work with newer versions of Photoshop. Some plug-ins do not show up in the normal Filter's menu, but in the File>automate menu instead (Genuine Fractals being one that I know of.)Comment

Re: too many Plugins?
I removed a lot of plugins to see if that would make a different, but it didn't. I still only get plugins with names starting with A - N, I can't scroll past "N". This happened once before, but I can't remember the fix! I've moved many plugins to a "plugin" folder outside of the regular PHotoshop plugin folder. Any other suggestions?
Thanks!!

Maybe the plugin that is after the last one you can see in the list, is fawlty, making CS2 stop listing after that one?Comment

Nadia... Mac or PC?
Some folks do store their plug-ins outside of the Photoshop folder, but I don't so can't help you there.Comment

Re: too many Plugins?
this may be way too obvious, but i'll mention it just to eliminate it. the scrolling of the filter/plugin list is not automatic. you have to press the tiny little up and down arrows at the bottom or top of the list to make things scroll. i have a lot of plugins also and tend to forget that little arrow thing also.
oh, and i believe you have to have an image loaded before you can scroll, also. otherwise, it's all just ghosted.Comment

Yes there is a limit, but off hand I can't remember the number. 80 comes to mind but not sure.

I Do many Animated Sigs and Avatars, I just recently started doing a few Movie Sigs And have gotten pretty good with it, however it lags my Photoshop real bad when doing it.
Is it possible that so many plugins are running and is it possible to disable some?
Then if so how will I know...07-24-2007, 05:33 PM -
Hi , I'm curious about the range of additional plugins available to Ps & if they really can enhance the image editing process or are they generally just dressed up automations for what can already be achieved manually within Ps?
Some of the plugins I've come across so far include...03-27-2009, 02:14 AM -
Some of Panopticum's plug-ins are available from author's site http://www.adobefx.com now. It must give support better. As for me I like "Engraver". My recommendations.01-11-2003, 10:23 AM

Hello,
My name is Donald Kelly. I have been using Photoshop to retouch and edit photos for awhile now, but I have no experience using plug-ins.
I was wondering if anyone who retouches and edits could offer a list of their personal favorite plug-ins that they find useful...10-22-2011, 11:58 PM -
What are plugins you use that can't be replaced by anything else? Unique, or merely complicated, there's no other way to do the thing that plugin does. So what are they?05-11-2015, 07:57 AM
