Plugins

Extend your GC Image software with plugins for your applications.

GC Image software provides various extension interfaces. Plugins can be implemented to enhance the flexibility and functionality of the software. Documentation regarding the plugin interfaces is available in the User Guide.

We are continually developing and updating the plugin interfaces to suite user-specific needs. If you would like to have a particular feature implemented, it may be possible to develop the feature as a plugin. You may request the plugin, or seek advice on implementing it by yourself on the User Forum.
