The Plugins panel lists all installed plug-ins recognized as valid. To display all information correctly, you must open Viz Config from Viz Artist, as the plug-ins are not actually loaded in the Viz Config standalone application. However you can still enable or disable the loading state.Some unlicensed plug-ins will not load, while others will. In the latter case, a watermark will be shown.

Viz Artist/Engine does not load inactive plug-ins during run-time. If a scene uses a plug-in that is deactivated, Viz Artist/Engine is unable to activate it without restarting.

Plug-in categories are:

• Geometry

• Container

• Scene

• Shader

• Fontstyle

• RenderToDisk

• Inactive

For detailed information about the various available plug-ins, see the Viz Artist User Guide in these sections:

• Geometry Plug-ins

• Container Plug-ins

• Scene Plug-ins

• Shader Plug-ins

All plug-ins can individually be activated or deactivated. If a plug-in is inactive it will not be loaded at startup. All inactive plug-ins are listed under the Inactive panel.

Click the drop-down menu to select a plug-in category.
