Hello, I have tried to use the Pixel Awarness feature shown here

There is a PixelGrid.fmxl example to download.

I have downloaded it, double click on it to install it, and nothing happens, it seems that it does not work

I have tried to copy directly the filter to a custom filter inside FF, but it is not showing

I am using latest version Filter Forge 5.09 with MacOS 10.10.4 Yosemite

Thanks for any help

Where did you copy it to?
You need to place the .ffxml file into /Users/Your_User_Name/Library/Application Support/Filter Forge 5/My Filters/
and restart Filter Forge.

I have already put the filter exactly where you have told me and when FF starts I get this error shown on the screenshot below

Although it is said that is not found, it Now it DOES appear in the filter list, but immediately that I try to use it FF crashes

LexArt, our MacOS tester is currently on vacation. We'll look into your issue when he is back to work.
I still suppose something in your system got cached incorrectly. Please do that once again:
- remove the ffxml file from the My Filters folder;
- start Filter Forge and check the filter doesn't show on the filter list;
- close Filter Forge and copy the ffxml file back;
- run Filter Forge and check if it helped.

Thanks GMM I have tried your suggestion, and the first time I did it, it gave a direct crash, but I tried to repeat all the above again, and then on the second time, it did work correctly, and now it seems to work and I can use it.

thanks for your help

I do not know why it was happening

updated: When closing filter forge it crashed again
