I'm working on a plugin that will only work with FCP because it's using FCP's AppleEvents and XML. I have a test in - initWithAPIManager: for FCP which causes it to just return nil if it's opened in FCE or Motion. I just launched Motion via the debugger and found, to my surprise, that -initWithAPIManager: is not being called until the plugin is selected in the Library list. That is different behavior from FCP and FCE, which call -initWithAPIManager: as the plugins are being loaded, so my plugin is correctly not available in FCE. Is this a Motion issue or have I missed some setup piece described in the FxPlug spec? This is a difference between Motion and FCP. There's nothing you've missed, and I don't think there's any way around it. Although, maybe if you were doing dynamic registration you could decide at that time not to show it to Motion? That's just a random thought - I'm not positive it would work. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
