It speaks volumes that all the statements come from Ash and not the Serif CEO...

Have you seen yourselves? I just saw the video... Please tell it to your face... Very sad day... :-( Affinity was the only REAL Alternative for the Adobe Suite. I (as many other customers) left Adobe because I don't like a subscription. And since I don't see a clear statement from Canva/Serif that there will be no such thing in the future I assume that they will switch to a subscription model es well... And then I will instantly switch back to Adobe... Especially since I use Adobe Express instead of Canva... But I'm quite sure that Canva isn't interested in the old customers anyway... Otherwise the public communication would have been different...

@stokerg Any update on this issue? It's really annoying it you have to recheck every export... This is a JPEG export with 3000x3000 Pixel:

Thank you so much for this feature... You can't imagine how much time this saves me. @Ash I found a bug in the new version. If you click "Export slices" and there are already files with the same name in the target folder, the dialoged for overwriting pops up. If you hit the ESC key, it saves anyway (thank god, only the new files).

Ability to lock insertion target
D.VE replied to Ash's topic in [ARCHIVE] 2.4, 2.3, 2.2 & 2.1 Features and Improvements
@Ash btw: I found a bug... If "insert behind" is activated, and you insert several different layers at, the order of the Layers will be reversed... -
Ability to lock insertion target
D.VE replied to Ash's topic in [ARCHIVE] 2.4, 2.3, 2.2 & 2.1 Features and Improvements
Thanks for this update. This is a real pain for me... Is there a reason why there is no global option for that? I don't want to "lock" this. I simply always want to insert behind the current object. -
Insert Section Number in AP
D.VE replied to D.VE's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Any information about how far in the future? -
Insert Section Number in AP
D.VE posted a topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Am I missing something, or is there no field for inserting the section number in Publisher (or at least the first page of the section as a workaround)? -
Sometimes (after moving and grouping of objects) the rotation axis gets lost. Especially if you select multiple objects. It jumps to some place outside the document and can't be moved back. If copy/paste it in AD, move the axis and go back to AP nothing changes.

Save existing export settings from file
D.VE replied to D.VE's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I don't... (since I don't need to, since I store no actual data on my computer). For Affinity I made two backups... The physical folders (library), and a manual export (assets, colors etc). Unfortunately, the folders were the wrong ones. So I took the manual export. Now I see that I forgot the export templates. Imo this is a big pain in Affinity. There should be an export function to save ALL customization data with one click. -
Save existing export settings from file
D.VE replied to D.VE's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Yes, but I forgot these... I'm not sure what you mean. The main problem are the color settings. Had massive problems there but figured out the right settings (via trial and error). Took me hours. How can I display those? -
ALTERNATIVE to After Effects
D.VE replied to amauriswill's topic in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products
There are so many really good (even better) Alternatives to Adobe Video Products. I prefer if Serif continues to focus on the existing products. There is much room from improvement -
I got a new Mac and I forgot to transfer the export templates of Affinity Designer. Existing files are exported correctly, but the fields are displayed empty in Export Persona. It's crucial for me (especially for print), that the settings are exactly the same. But the old PC is gone. How can I save the templates again or at least display the settings I made that are saved within the files obviously? -thx

Move Affinity to a new Computer
D.VE replied to D.VE's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
No the sync is not the issue... Okay it is ALSO the issue... But he doesn't seem to find the settings of Affinity (i made them manually) -
Move Affinity to a new Computer
D.VE replied to D.VE's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Not "a lot like"... It is exactly like that! Homebrew is a package manager like APT, RPM or DNF I'm using Mackup unfortunately it doesn't work with Affinity on my M2 Mac (although it is officially supported). -
Move Affinity to a new Computer
D.VE replied to D.VE's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
About 10 Minutes, and I can do other stuff in parallel... How long would you take to download and install about 40 applications? -
Move Affinity to a new Computer
D.VE replied to D.VE's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I have one script that installs my software... I copy/paste it into a terminal window and at the end I have installed (almost) everything. And for Affinity this may be trivial but there is software (especially nerd stuff for programming) that has a lot of dependencies. If you want to run application A you first need extension B, for extension B you first need the libraries X, Y and Z and so on... If you are using a package manager you don't have to think about that. Also the software is easy removed without residues and I can update (almost) every piece of software on my computer with just one command Summary: Easy install Easy uninstall Easy update No worries about dependencies -
Move Affinity to a new Computer
D.VE replied to D.VE's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
A package Manager >IS< a normal method of installing software. it makes you life soooo much easier (normally). I can install all the software I need on a new mac within minutes. -
Move Affinity to a new Computer
D.VE replied to D.VE's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Is there any other way to export and import everything (settings, assets etc)? -
Move Affinity to a new Computer
D.VE replied to D.VE's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Hmmm... I'm using Homebrew... Can't find the settings here... -
Done... No, mostly for print. But I use the same file to export for web as well.

Can I save my Affinity Settings?
D.VE replied to Stephen Babb's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Why not... Other applications allow the settings to be synced between devices via cloud or network... -
Nope... They are on the harddrive (external)... Not Publisher... Designer And the limit ist "two"? But even if this is the case: This shouldn't be exported... Under any circumstances! I expect Designer to export the real thing, and not some previews embedded in the .afdesign-file. If linked documents are not available or anything else goes wrong there should be an error message.
