Rebelle 6 connect plugin for Affinity Photo

I would very much like Rebelle to have a plugin to connect to Affinity Photo. I stopped using Photoshop when it became a subscription-only application and have found the Affinity software quite useful since then. PS "noanshere" had already posted a similar topic (and "redrobred" joined it), but since it mentioned version 5 in the title I decided to add a new one for the latest release.

It would definitely be a great thing if possible. I found this on Affinity forum: "As far as I know the plugins for Affinity were all developed for PS against the Adobe SDK [URL]https://www.adobe.io/photoshop/[/URL]. But there are further limitations to what kind of plugin will work in APh, I believe its only the filter type, so think you can't make an export plugin, you should verify that." This was for AP V1. As far as I have read, there hasn't been any improvements with AP v2.

Please sign my up for this too. Ditching Adobe for Affinity was one of the best Design Software choices I ever made.

Then you need to push Affinity to make it possible. Plugin support in Photo is very rudimentary (only basic filters). Maybe suggest plugin support for communicating with other apps over there? Maybe tell them that PS already works with rebelle, so they may loose customers? (They have lost me for exactly that reason)

There's a simple workaround for Flame Painter. I suppose it would work for Rebelle. Copy the background layer you want to paint over in Affinity. Open Flame Painter. Paste the layer you copied from Affinity. Create a new blank layer in FP. Do your painting. Copy the painted layer. Go back to AP. Paste the painted layer.
