Hello, it looks like XD has issue while parsing manifest.json file. If plugin version is higher than 99 installation fails with “Cannot install Plug-in, please try again. Error code -4”.

In my case plugin version is `"version": "0.7.144"` and I can’t install it. If I replace plugin version to `0.7.99` everything works.

While I agree that this isn’t ideal, it is documented this way =\> I don’t think there’s any way to work around that, and at least for now, `99` is the maximum number any of the segments can take.

Cf. [https://www.adobe.io/xd/uxp/develop/plugin-development/plugin-structure/manifest-v3/](https://www.adobe.io/xd/uxp/develop/plugin-development/plugin-structure/manifest-v3/) :

> Version number of your plugin in `x.y.z` format.  
> Version must be three segments and each version component must be between `0` and `99` .

It sounds really weird. Are there any reasons for such solution?

To be honest, I have no idea. I can ask around once the US colleagues are back from their Thanksgiving celebrations, though 😉.
