    Affinity Photo reuse/duplicate filter groups/layers/sets

    in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)

    Posted

    The Auto filters are destructive and not available as Live filters. That's why they don't appear in the Layers panel. There's no way to copy/paste those to another document.

     

    Only Filers available through the menu Layer -> New Live Filter Layer will appear as layers in the Layers panel.

     

    Okay, thanks for resolution

     

    Can you let me know where I can create a feature request for this?

     

    Kind thanks

    Yes, you can also copy/paste multiple filters at once. Select/click them in the Layers panel holding down the cmd key then copy/paste in the new document.

     

    Hey MEB,
     
    Thanks for reply
     
    Currently having trouble getting any of the auto filters ( https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-oUmf4LFtExTkhUUzJZV1RHejQ) to appear in my layers panel..?
     
    Hope to hear back
     
    Kind thanks

    This might work for you.  In Affinity Photo all the adjustments you mentioned are under the Adjustments layer.  I grouped all the adjustments you mentioned.  I opened a group of photos, which open as separate tabs in Affinity Photo.  I go to my master file, and copy the group containing all my adjustment layers.  I then select another photo by the tab, and CMD-V (paste) on that file.  The group with all the adjustment layers and settings used will paste into the layers of the new file.  I can go through each tab and paste those adjustments into new files.  

    You don't have to group them together. I thought it would just be easier to manage.

     

    I don't know the limit of photos you can open at once in Affinity Photo.  And it isn't something you would want to do for a large number of photos.  But I could see 10 to 20 as a viable range.

     

    Hey @crabtrem,
     
    Thanks for reply
     
    I'm looking for the "auto" filter features ( https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-oUmf4LFtExTkhUUzJZV1RHejQ), which don't appear to be available via the layer groupings
     
    If I apply the auto filters I don't see their addition anywhere in the studio panels (e.g. layer grouping), so can't clone/manipulate them, which IMHO would be the logical thing to [be able to] do
     
    Hope to hear back
     
    Kind thanks

    click on the adjustment/filter layers while holding down the cmd key, then press cmd-c.

    load the picture where you want to paste them, and press cmd-v.

     

    Hey,
     
    Thanks for reply
     
    Ahh, yes, I had discovered this a while ago, as per my original post, but I'm now trying to do the same with filters - can it be done?
     
    Hope to hear back
     
    Kind thanks

    Hey all,

     

    Hope you're well

     

    Apologies in advance for the obscure title - not sure of the terminology to use ATM

     

    I regularly apply filters to groups of photos when I'm colour matching; "Filters > Colours > Auto Levels / Contrast/Colours / White Balance" - all very common tasks for me

     

    Is there a way of batching this state/style over all of my [open] files or a way to apply to each individually; reducing manual labour

     

    I swear I managed to do this recently, but for the life of me can't work it out today

     

    Hope to hear back

     

    Kind thanks

    Can we do software requests? possible Lightroom alternative?

    Hey,

     

    Thanks for Affinity products

     

    +1 on this thread

     

    Tried http://apple.com/osx/photos/ and http://darktable.org/ since boycotting Adobe products last year (e.g. http://adobe.com/products/bridge.html )


     

    Currently, https://www.phaseone.com/en/Products/Software/Capture-One-Pro/Highlights.aspx appears to be filling the gap nicely. Can't believe I managed DAM (digital asset management) with Apple Preview for so long during the interim period

     

    Hope this is useful

     

    Regards
