Or utilize the assets panel for this and create these objects and styles upfront and drag them in when a new document is opened.
I've never really used it but will give it a go, I have found if I pile enough items into a template it covers just about everything I use on a regular basis
I think it'll be useful for things like fonts that I can per-configure or custom setups as well.
Thanks for the tips.

The app Defaults concern the entire app, regardless of a document, and apply for every future, newly created object – whereas a template with e.g. a saved text style in the Styles Panel doesn't automatically apply this style for new Text Frames but might use the app Defaults instead in your Template document.
Yeah I noticed that.
I just made the app default the same as my template font
works perfectly weather it's a new preset or a new template document
Thanks for the advice...

Thanks for the leads but that wasn't going to do it for me because the system always accesses the last used file location, I ended up working out the template system, that's the best way to go as it's not reliant on the last location accessed, instead, new/template/pick your template.
Thanks for your reply.

Hi There all.
I'm new to Affinity and have v2.xx
I would like to be able to set the defaults for the following when I open a NEW document
I have created a couple of NEW PRESETS but can't get all the defaults I want at startupI want to start a new document with the following defaults:
Font Size: 10mm
Font Colour: Black
Font: Arial
Font Style: PlainPage Size (Got this one sorted as the new preset)
Stroke Width and Colour and Style (I want black with a .2mm stroke size, Square caps, Mitre join, Aligned ON the line)
Fill (I want no fill on shapes, circles squares etc..)
Grid 50mm x 1mm (50mm grid lines + 1mm Sub divisions)
That's all 🤣
Cheers All and thanks in advance...

Hi All
I found the backup for keyboard shortcuts but cant find the interface configuration/user settings
I found a folder in C:\Users\myusername\AppData\Roaming\Affinity\Common\2.0\user
If I copy that folder will it save all the config data ?
Thanks
