For info, you can use the plugin over the network. Both computers must be connected to the same network obviously.
Usage and limitations :
- Works only with CC2015 (or newer).
- The image will be updated once you release the tool you are using.
- In alpha mode all layers are rendered. Even if they are hidden in Photoshop.
- In alpha mode, the image is resized to the minimum bounding box of your image. So you will need to add a pixel in each corner to receive the image at the right resolution.
- If you work with multiple files in Photoshop, you need to put them on
screen so Millumin will receive the image and update the menu.
