I can't see a way to do this. As you will have seen with the options you get when selecting a layer while recording the Macro, there is no 'select all layers named ABC'.  
Someone else might have a workaround method that i'm unaware of, so i'll leave this post in Questions for now and move it to Feature Requests as and when needed  

Yesterday I searched for lightweight video editor some NLE with good slideshow capability and nice video transition, effect, color grading etc. And I have found none that can replace Adobe solutions. So i have feature request to add basic video and slide show support to Affinity Photo similar in features to PS or Lightroom.
Or even better I will be super happy if Affinity will come with Premiere or After Effect equivalent. 

Hi all,
 
Thanks for the great work that you are doing!
 
Just chiming in to stress how nice it would be to have all edits saved to a sidecar file. Until that is possible, using Affinity for RAW development is hardly an option, as it ends up more than doubling the size of any photo archive. When I develop a raw in Lightroom I only add a few KBs to the size of the original RAW file. Compare it to the 100+ MB of saving an affinity photo file next to the RAW.
 
Pretty please :)

Was thinking about that as well and yea, it would be cool.

When I read the title, I assumed you would only be asking for a video editing application, but then I read your description. I second this as long as it doesn't get too wild with the video editing portion, and only used for enhancement. Maybe allow an option to import video clips, and enhance them with the Develop and Tone Mapping personas. The sliders would work, but using the actual tools would cause difficulty.

Actually, I would love that Serif would start considering creating a movie editing application.
From what I have seen in Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo, they would come up with a killer movie editing application, no doubt.

There is definitely a market for a professional, commercial, linux-based 2D application. LINUX is an OS for professionals in the fields of 3D, VFX and Compositing, and there's a reason why they did the extra work and published there software for this still quite exotic OS. Some of them already came from a UNIX background like MAYA, but most of them were just ported because LINUX is taking less ressources, is less bloated, it's secure and is rock-solid. It's a mainly a workstation OS. If you want to play games, it's the wrong choice, go for windows. If you are a music-producer, than maybe OSX is a better solution. VFX companies don't rely on LINUX to save money, because if you equip several workstations with NUKE licenses, the additional € 100,- for a Windows-license would be peanuts. Adobe shows no interest in LINUX and why should they. They are the defacto-standard on Windows and OSX for pixel- and vector-based image creation as well as DTP since the death of Quark XPress. A huge market that already delivers more than enough money. An additional LINUX-version would just not be as lucrative. The typical Designer with his trendy Mac won't switch to another toolset. Affinity's market is therefore somehow limited to the hobbyists or professionals that don't want to go the Adobe way of licensing. On the other side, they could advance to the industry standard on LINUX. Not a bad market in my opinion. There's a world beyond the "traditional" graphic designers and photographers that stick to their Macs. I'd have no problems to pay beyond € 200,- for a Linux-version of Affinity Photo or any other professional 2D app. I'm using plugins for other tools that are more expensive and at the end of the day, it pays my bills.
