I've made a slight modification to the plugin (v0.2 Alpha) and encluded a text file with simple usage instructions.

Fixed a bug where an empty line in the text would cause an error
Fixed a bug in the text rendering

Don't use 'C:\Program Files\PhotoFiltre\Selections\' in your code source but GetExePath + 'Selections'

Thanks Antonio.

I have updated the plugin again with the fix and also added a new feature:

Smooth - which smooths the path before rending the text

This plugin is very interesting :)
Would it be possible to add a preview ?

There is a small thumbnail preview on the plug-in form and one also on the image... check the location settings, the image preview may be hidden by the plugin form being in front of it. Is that what you mean?

I don't find the small preview very practical and would prefer an image preview :oops: because the automatic preview makes the computer freeze every 3 seconds...

First : Sorry for my English !! :oops: :wink:
This plugin is very nice !!
But, if the path is predefined (round, square, ...... first word misus) or bad file format, an error occured.
:idea: Would it be possible to add a verification function ?
and another to translate "predefined path" to "vector path" for use to this plugin
