Hi,
Hopefully this is easy to answer :). I'm developing an export filter and I don't understand how to develop the portion for the import/export section of the preferences dialog. Specifically, the SDK docs don't seem to cover (or I can't find) this aspect of filter plugins. Could anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Heh, I think I found it. Apparently, I need to develop a description resource (RTFM :).

Ok, still lost. Can someone give me a hint on how to get parameter values out of the preferences dialog (from an export filter)? It certainly isn't obvious from the SDK docs ;).

Well,
I'm at this problem too, and still in trouble retrieving saved export preference data (I see them between Cinema sessions so I guess they're corretly saved).

I tried finding the plugin and using GetParameter or via GetInstanceData but no way to get back what I see in the export preference items corretly configured via .h/.res.
Can someone give me a hint?

Thanks a lot,
BL
