OnOne's Perfect Layers 2

[Mark Anthony]

I saw a post on here about LR and someone mentioned perfect layers 2 in it regarding using layers in LR.

I looked into it last night and downloaded it but once id got it in the right place etc it wouldn't open.

It said I need an open video driver update or words to that effect.. Has anyone else experienced this, and how did you get around it as I have not got a clue about drivers or how to update or even which ones are already installed?

And for the users, is it even worth the hassle.. The idea of layers in LR is appealing but does it work well?

Edit> And sorry for not putting this in the original post but I couldn't find it by the time I finished messing about with it trying to get it to open.

Onone stuff is famous for having driver/graphic issues, to be honest it's not actually adding layers to lightroom it's a stand alone program to LR sends to, your better off buying Photoshop elements which is a fair bit cheaper (or was last time I looked) and does a heck of a lot more.

I do have ps too.. I only started using LR a few weeks ago so when I saw this layers plug-in I thought it'd be a useful thing to have so that I'd virtually cut out ps altogether.. only doing the occasional head swap etc.

I thought it was too good to be true when I saw it.

I have downloaded it into LR2 and it works fine as a plug in but as said it opens separately and LR sends images to it...i would ay it is easier to use than PS but others may disagree
