Plugins for Draft?

Is it possible to make plugins for Draft? Specifically I want to add a file output plugin that would save out images in a format not currently supported by Draft.

What image format are you wanting to use that we don’t support?

One I made up. :neutral_face:

Already have a plugin for Fusion working, so I’ve fleshed out how the format works, now I want to make something that runs without Fusion (especially on OSX machines). Thought using Draft would be better for the end user than making a commandline job for Deadline, and since a lot of the stuff I would need to do, like adding input formats and applying LUTs.

Ah. No, not at this time, sorry.

I’m curious, do you have any thoughts on how you would like us to handle this?

I’m looking at OpenImageIO now, they just have DLLs that your OpenImageIO enabled application finds on startup. So a bit like how OpenFX works, just a lot simpler.

So maybe do something like that? But why bother, if you can just include oiio in Draft? It’s “new BSD” license.

Right, thanks!
