![]() There doesn’t seem any way to move presets between the Imported and Custom panels, but that hardly matters since they work in the same way wherever they’re stored. Imported presets are all displayed in the Imported panel. Now just locate the folder where the presets are stored, select them all (they have an ‘.np’ file extension on my Mac) and click the Open button. It’s at the top of the sidebar here, but that’s because the panel is expanded ready to receive the imported presets – normally, the Imported panel is collapsed and at the bottom of the sidebar. To import these presets (or any others), click the ‘+’ button (circled) alongside the Imported panel heading in the left sidebar. ![]() Just click on the download link below, unzip the file and then follow the instructions in the next step. It’s just as easy to import presets, and you can find out for yourself by downloading the presets I’ve exported. Each preset file is only around 5 kilobytes in size, and that’s because they’re simply a set of processing instructions. The export takes just a couple of moments. When you press this button, Analog Efex Pro prompts you to choose a location on your computer to save the presets to. To export my presets for sharing with other people, I need to press the Export All button (circled) at the bottom of the custom presets panel. The main window shows the ‘Cyanotype’ preset applied to a still life image. You use custom presets just as you use those that come built in – they’re simply stored in a separate panel. Here are eight custom presets I’ve created while I’ve been writing this series, displayed in the Custom panel in the left sidebar. In this part I’m going to show how to save presets you’ve created as external files you can share with other people – and how to import presets sent to you by others by downloading the free Analog Efex Pro presets I’ve created to go with this mini-series. Part 1 looked at Analog Efex Pro basics and how to apply preset effects, part 2 explained the Camera Kit and how to create effects of your own and part 3 showed how to create, save and work with your own Analog Efex Pro custom presets. ![]() This was written for the first version of Analog Efex Pro, but the tools and presets still apply for the latest DxO version. Note: Following many requests, I’m republishing this article with the download link restored but the content unchanged. It joins the existing plug-ins in the Nik Collection, now owned and distributed by DxO. ![]() So I conclude it is a Nik Collection issue, which affects every programme except HDR Efex Pro 2.Welcome to the fourth and final part of this mini-series on Google’s brand new film and camera simulation plug-in, Analog Efex Pro. However, HDR Efex Pro 2 : ran and made changes OK to existing layer on exit - normal behaviour. Sharpener Pro 3: (2) Output Sharpener : ditto Sharpener Pro 3: (1) RAW Presharpener : ran but made no changes on exit (does not create new layer normally) I then repeated the recording of steps for each of the other programs in the Nik Collection, with the following results:Īnalog Efex Pro 2 : ran but did not create new layer with changes on exit (as for Silver Efex Pro 2) None of them create the expected layer and mask. All of them appear to exit properly from the add-on. 1 & 2 allow manipulation of the image in the add-on 3 does not, it plays the full-recorded sequence and exits. To test the operating modes I created three Actions:ġ) Using Insert Menu Item : Filters>Nik Collection>Silver Efex Pro.Ģ) Recording the entire calling/editing/exiting process (a single step is recorded, on exit) and then toggling on the dialog box.ģ) Using used the code from Script Listener.Īll of them enter the add-on. I will contat DxO with the following analysis. I know my way around Actions, so have tried everything in my experience.
