Plug-In Initialization and Configuration

All available plug-ins are installed to the following directory during Silk Performer setup: C:\Program Files\Silk\Silk Performer 21.0\Plugins.

When Silk Performer is launched, it checks for installed plug-ins. All installed plug-ins are then loaded, verified, and initialized.

Plug-ins can be enabled, disabled, or configured by users via Silk Performer’s System Settings dialog. The System Settings dialog adds a new icon in the left-hand pane for each available plug-in. On the General page, basic information (including description, version, and supported features) and the ability to enable/disable the plug-in is provided for each installed plug-in. Each plug-in is also provided an Attributes tab that lists all attributes associated with the plug-in. Some plug-ins may include additional tabs related to available functionality.

Plug-ins are disabled by default and must be enabled before use.
