Special note for Studio 15 users: when you install Graffiti, it should ask you to confirm the directory in which Graffiti will write files; it will at least if you choose the 'Custom' option, instead of the 'Complete' option.  When the installer asks you to confirm where to install the Studio plugins, point the installer to C:\Program Files (x86)\Avid\Studio 15\plugins\RTFx
Note that if you have Studio 14 also installed, you could copy/re-locate the Graffiti plugin file(s) from the 14 RTFx folder (BorisFXUI.fex and BorisGraffitiUI.xml).
