Is there a setting I can change to have Affinity export back to the original folder automatically,
Not currently but it has been requested in the past and may be implemented in a future update/upgrade

I have a PDF open with hundreds/thousands of layers/objects and I want to delete all of them except for the few objects I've selected on the canvas.
With all the layers you want to keep selected, right-click one of the selected layers and select Lock
Select > Select All Layers will then just select the unlocked layers- walt.farrell, dominik, R C-R and 1 other

Second, I cannot rotate the canvas using my fingers on the touch screen of the laptop.
Not sure if it was ever implemented...

In the image below the £200 per module text will not sit in the cells the same way, everything in it is identical and I cant for the life of me work it out.
Select all cells in the table
Go into the Paragraph panel and toggle the "Align to Baseline Grid" check box to on then off
The vertical alignment options will then work as expected

- what you see on the canvas is different to what you see in the export preview, and;
- what I see on the canvas is the same as what I see in the export preview.
For what it's worth I see the same as the OP
Perfect in Designer but the (export) preview does not match

Right now, it’s only available from the Move Tools context menu, which is fine
For those that don't know...
You can also ALT click the "Add Layer" icon

Hey Alfred,
I checked that page. But I already have the other two apps, so I don't need a 'universal license'. I think the Afdesign V2 is only $100 by itself. Which is terrific actually. I love owning an app. I hate subscriptions. But was just wondering if, somewhere obscure, there was a price for 'upgrading'. Ha. Actually, I think I'll just get it. I'm becoming a big fan of Affinity.
Bear in mind if you just upgrade Designer to V2, files saved in that format will not be openable in your other two V1 apps

Ok, I mean if I have an image on a layer, can I just crop that image? Because selecting the Crop tool (Photo) selects the whole document.
If the image is Linked (not embedded) you can select the image layer and Edit Image in the context toolbar. You can then Crop just that image
Bear in mind that this is destructive and will crop the original image (JPG) so masking is usually best, unless you don't mind cropping the original

Add top, right, left, or bottom stroke options including weight in pts.
Decorations or a single cell table with appropriate border settings may do what you need for now
-
Select > Select Same > Width > Equal
May get you close to what you want to do
No time to check that in-depth though

If you also have Affinity Designer you can create a Symbol with the Symbols Panel which will do as you want

Is there a way for me to limit the number of colors in a palette,
If exporting to a format like PNG there is an option to Palettise the output file to only use a specified number of colours

I have a programmable keyboard set up for these apps. I use the same profile for Photo and Designer as they are the ones I use the most.
Which programable keys did you set for Photo?

Fine here Windows, APhoto V2
In APhoto V1 the (same) lens is not detected automatically but works once selected manually

You can't crop the photo with a rectangle. It should be left as it is. I have all the programs.
InPainting Brush Tool?
...or try to be more specific as to what you want to do

Can you upload one of the problematic CR3 files to the forum?

-
Why not just cut the main image out of the background then use any background (colour/image) you want
-
You can use the Text on a Path feature to add an arrow head character (e.g. Wingdings3 font) to the line
(with regular spacing or just wherever you want an arrow)
-
Alternatively, upload the 2 images to the forum so we can see if it's the software at fault or something else

I don't know what the problem is over here but for some reason it doesn't show up on my context toolbar when I have the color picker chosen
Make sure you are using the colour picker from the Tools Panel.
The colour picker in the Colour Panel does not give you any context toolbar options

Affinity Photo, how to shrink a marquee selection to the shape of an object?
in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Posted
If the object is on a plain background, like your image, just flood select the background, then invert the pixel selection...
...then, duplicate to a new layer (CTRL+J)
Add stroke and move as required
