What do you have on MAC

Okay, I used my plugin manager to add Morgify to LR and I've also installed Imagemagick but I couldn't seem to find a way to make it work. I just figured it wouldn't work with LR-4. How do you call the plugin up to use it?

Did you perform the Windows specific install steps? If so, check that the Plug-in is enabled in Plug-in Manager. After all of that is done, go to File, Export and you should see LR/Mogrify 2 in the Post Process Action box on the lower right of the dialog.

Okay, I've done all that but am confused how to use it. Is the only place that you make changes within the export box? Is there anyway to preview the changes such as borders in the main develop section of LR or is it a trail and error type?

Trial and error in the export box. I've been using it for so long that I don't even think about it. :confused:

This is another good example of some of the advanced features:

Not sure if everyone is aware of this, something I just recently learnt. In the export dialog box, at the bottom you have an option of what to do after lightroom finished exporting. The default is to show in finder or Explorer.
Here in this drop down menu, you have an option to choose what application or plugin lightroom must own the image in after export. If you choose this option, you have a Window opening which allows you to drag and drop any application or plugin you want lightroom to open the file in..

@Eduard-

Thanks so much for LR/Mogrify 2..
I think it does the job amazingly well..
Though i fell it extends the time needed for exporting.. that being said, i was spending LOADS more time in Picasa :)
Here is an image i used Mogrify on... Just the first attempt, so not much of a learning curve...
Added Outer & Inner borders of different sizes. changed opacity and color of inner border.
Resized to 2mb, although 600kb would be more than sufficient.
