Is it possible to code plugins that will directly affect built-in controls? E.g. change how cropping works

I'm just wondering what the limitations of coding for OBS are.

For instance, I would like to be able to change the method used for cropping a source -- something more than the alt click handles. I want to be able to click 4 points and say "this is my crop area."
Is it possible to make a plugin that can enable that? I'm willing to put the work in to learn to develop something like this, but I don't want to waste my time if it's impossible to do.

Technically, none. It's open source. If you can build it from source, then you can change your copy of that source and rebuild to make it do whatever you want.

Just don't call it OBS anymore, and understand that support might be harder to get because your modifications might have broken the thing that you're asking for help on.

Yes, it's possible to code plugins that modify built-in controls, like changing how cropping works. However, doing this in apps like YouTube Premium APK involves reverse engineering, which can be risky and against terms of service. Always use trusted sources to stay secure and compliant.

Yes, it's possible to develop plugins that alter built-in controls, such as modifying the cropping feature. However, doing this with apps like SPotify Premium APK often requires reverse engineering, which can be risky and may violate the terms of service. Always rely on trusted sources to ensure safety and compliance.
