Question

Hello,

I am using the FameSelect sample project for my application. The plugin name is specified in the FrameSelectTerminology.h as:

#define plugInName            "Frame Select"

This is the name of the menu item that shows up under File->Automate.

I want the ability to change the name of this menu by reading it from a string resource file to make the name configurable for the customers.

I have tried using the SPPluginsSuite::SetPluginName but this does not help.

Is there a way to change the name of the menu item that shows up under File->Automate?

I am using the Photoshop CS3 SDK.

Thaks,

Hitesh

As explained in the SDK, the plugin name comes from the PiPL properties (resources).

That determines what shows up in the UI, where it shows up, when it's enabled, etc.
