# Plugins Window

The Plugins Window shows you what plugins are installed and active.

Plugins can add support for additional features, see Development § Plugins for details.

Plugins are located in a directory on your hard drive. Plugins can be in subdirectories or symbolic links.

- Using the Flatpak on Linux, Maverick Model 3D uses `$HOME/.var/app/moe.clover.mm3d/data/mm3d/plugins/1.3`.
- On macOS, Maverick Model 3D uses `$HOME/Library/Application Support/Maverick Model 3D/plugins/1.3`.
- On other Unix-like systems, Maverick Model 3D uses `$HOME/.mm3d/plugins/1.3` and `/usr/local/share/mm3d/plugins/1.3`, although the shared path can be changed at compile time.
- On Windows, Maverick Model 3D uses `%APPDATA%\Maverick Model 3D\plugins\1.3` and the `plugins\1.3` subdirectory where Maverick Model 3D was installed.

The main component of the plugins window is a table that contains a list of plugins. Each plugin should also provide a Version string and a Description string. There is also a Status column that tells you if the plugin is properly initialized and currently active. Filename specifies the full path of the plugin.

All plugins can be disabled at run time by specifying `--no-plugins` on the command line. Specific plugins can be disabled by specifying `--no-plugin=plugin_name` on the command line. `--no-plugin` can be specified more than once.
