Thanks for the reply Jörg,
I have now place theses files:
loc folder
schema folder
view folder
manifest.xml
in a sub-directory called padam as you mentioned, so the full path is:
WINDOWS: [user]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\XMP\Metadata Extensions\padam\...
I have not made any changes to the files in the loc, schema, view folders, or to the manifest.xml I downloaded from the Adobe website.
I still see nothing when I bring up the FileInfo panel in Photoshop.
Are there other changes I would need to make in order to see the sample extension show up in Photoshop?
For example, would I need to somehow change the locFilePrefix in the manifest.xml file?
<extension xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/metadata/extension/1.0/"
name="com.adobe.sample.extension"
version="1.0"
locFilePrefix="sample">
</extension>
Also, in the sampleSchema.xml, would I have to change any of these items in bold:
<xmp_schema prefix='sampleSchema' namespace='http://my.sampleSchema.namespace/' label='Sample Schema for Demonstration' description='This example demonstrates how a new schema can be created'>
<xmp_property name='Boolean' category='external' type='boolean' label="$$$/sampleSchema/Property/BooleanInputLabel=Boolean Field1" description='$$$/sampleSchema/Property/BooleanInputDescription=Defining Boolean data type'/>
Are there other things I'll have to change in the view folder to get the sample to work?
I guess when I downloaded the SDK and saw "Sample Extension", I was expecting it to work with no interaction on my part just to see the sample. Obviously, I knew I'd have to alter everything to make my own Custom extension.
Thanks for any help you can provide, I really appreciate it!
