Why can’t I connect multiple Silhouette plug-ins in a chain?

Silhouette plug-ins cannot be connected directly in sequence within a host application. Silhouette does not support chaining multiple Silhouette plug-in instances back-to-back in a single processing pipeline.

Limitation of multiple Silhouette plug-in instances

Silhouette plug-ins can be used multiple times within a project, but they cannot be connected one after another.

This means:

  • Multiple Silhouette plug-ins are allowed in a project

  • Silhouette plug-ins cannot be chained directly together

  • Each Silhouette plug-in instance must operate independently in the host workflow

Impact on Silhouette workflows

Silhouette plug-in workflows must be structured to avoid direct chaining of plug-in instances.

To work around this limitation, users can:

  • Place other nodes or effects between Silhouette plug-ins

  • Use separate branches or layers in the host application

  • Consolidate work into a single Silhouette plug-in instance when possible

Following these guidelines helps ensure stable and supported use of Silhouette plug-ins in host applications.
