Installing plugins

• Sep 13, 2012 - 17:16

Perhaps I am simply technologically handicapped, but I don't really understand how to install a plugin. I've downloaded the Jojo Schmitz-crescendo-diminuendo-playback plugin but I don't understand how to install it into my copy of Musescore, or what directory it goes in, etc. Any help would be appreciated.

I have similar problems with the plugins.
I have unzipped the plugin in the plugin folder but it is still not shown in the plugin menue.
The unzipped plugin has an extension of UI where as the other default plugins have a QML extension.
is there a way of extracting this.
Help please

Plugins for 1.x have a .js extension, if they come with a GUI they also have files with a .ui Extension. Plugins for 2.0 have a .qml Extension and the GUI, if any, is build in, no .ui files.
So it is very likely you got a 1.x plugin, which won't work in 2.0.
But if it is a 2.0 plugin, it also needs to get enabled in the Plugin Manager, it won't show up in the menu automatically without that, like it did in 1.x.
