When trying to generate plugin code on Linux with the AppImage, the log messages show, that the _template folder cannot be accessed.
Workaround
- set paths in settings

- clone git repo and copy _template folder from
./ImagePlay/media/plugin_development/_template
to /home/karl/imageplay/plugindev
- If the folder that should be generated already exists, delete or rename it.
- now the code generation should succeed
