outside PSD file update and automatically updating the currently opened PSD file for easy editing and sending back to 3Dcoat does not exist.
3Dcoat overwrites the PSD and you have to reopen the file if you made changes in 3Dcoat.
Do not forget to activate in Preferences Enable Save over imported PSD files.
Blender is slightly different, it will create new image files which will have after each sent to command get a number like 01, 02, 03 and so on. It feels more like the wished feature. -
For 3Dcoat you have to use a different approach.
Please download this officially from Serif posted file;
https://forum.affinity.serif.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=248644&key=119287f3c07b431d31927625f5879f38Extract the aflaunch.zip contents (aflaunch.exe) where you want.
Within 3DCoat in the External 2D Editor, you have to paste the path to the aflaunch.exe
(Link to original forum post below) -

Buying the Affinity Suite V2 Universal licence and getting V1 retroactively would mean;
you only pay 1.02€ more than I did for V1 alone and I bought at EVERY launch offer.39,99€ Affinity DesignerV1 2016 November
39,99 Affinity PhotoV1 2016 December
38,99 Affinity PublisherV1 2019 June
________
118,97€
Affinity v2 Universal
119,99€I had to pay 238,96€ to get access to BOTH V1 and V2.
you get it for just 119,99€It seems you are not realizing how generous Serif is with the above posted comment with getting you a V1 version.
-
another option to solve it,is to use the so called alias path which should be usable in your case.
please try to paste this in;
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\AffinityPhoto2.exethe username needs to be replaced with your Windows username.
For your Windows username; go to your windows Startmenu (press windows button on your keyboard and click on the upmost button to reveal the username.

same result but another way to know your unique username, type into the windows explorer the following;
%LOCALAPPDATA%
press enter.

For 3DCoat you have to use what the devs so far have posted on the forum, download the from the devs posted exe file, place it anywhere and link to that file in 3DCoat.

For Blender just type in AffinityPhoto2.exe

Hello @MiWe
we where advised to not share exe files on the forum and instead link to the solutions from the devs instead.
-
The Devs have uploaded this working solution so far, you have to link to that executable, it can be placed in a random folder of your choosing.
I have it like this and it works (with everything else set to default settings - temporarily for testing purposes)

For the question regarding why it is not working;
please read this statement regarding the new fileformat called MSIX.

NO NO a million times no. I've hidden your posts about changing permission and taking ownership of the installation folders. It will result in the software being unpatchable and possibly worse.
Serif cannot offer software support to anyone changing folder permissions. If you posted this anywhere else please go and delete them now.
Hello @Patrick Connor I complied to it, no idea of others, hope all is well.
on second thought, anything I wrote or had written was not able to change permissions.
Maybe someone else was meant? -
I would be fine with a top panel which offers a scrollwheel feature
, saves even more clicks and offers more visual feedback.
-
maybe devs can change it so you only have to scroll while hovering your mouse over it.

Then fde101 concept is still better than Serif solution because we don't have to expand the preset list each time we change an export format.
click once into the file3 selection, then use your scroll wheel.

I would be vary, there is no link to an official statement!?
Even worse, that twitter user is using an image of the old program in his preview.
regarding returning purchases Serif is doing the usual 14 day period;https://store.serif.com/en-gb/help/
If you are not satisfied with your product for any reason, you may return it within a 14 day period after receipt of your product to receive a full refund. Please email affinityreturns@serif.com with your name, order number and reason for returning the item to begin the process.

Thank you very much!
This went completely under the radar for me and is really important to my future plannings.😳 -
all programs; Sharing of brushes, styles, assets, application palettes etc between all programs. that saves a bunch of space.
AD Displace filter with having Red/green offset is rad.
APub; Style picker tool

Let's say somebody bought V1 for iPadOS this month and Apple is releasing iPadOS 16.3 next month preventing V1 to run. I'm not a lawyer but EU consumer rights are very strict.
Interesting, do you perhaps have a news article for an example?

In V2 there is no RTL support and there wasn´t any announcements in that regard nor is there a roadmap of future additions available.

The "cool if it works" is purely meant for any in the future related updates or upgrades of your used OS.
Has Affinity Photo/Designer/Publisher V1 stopped working today or yesterday? if not it is to be expected.
You could of course try to contact the customer support of Serif and ask if you might benefit of their grace period (bought the old Version just before the release/announcement) -
People just need to acknowledge that they still have with V1 a perpetual license but it is now marked as legacy.
Affinity Suite 1 will continue to work on the original target operating systems with any OS update till it got marked as legacy.
Forward compatibility to new OS Updates or even OS versions can´t be guaranteed (cool if it works) and depends entirely on what Microsoft or Apple put as updates in their respective OS.- Mark Ingram, Michael Lloyd, Kokosz and 3 others

Signed in her since 2016 ( if it matters at all) , some complaints are imo warranted, some are indeed baffling and some are due to lack of usage knowledge.
We should try our best as seasoned users/customers of affinity products to help newcomers where it is possible. -
Bought it and using it currently. The Serif Team has tackled and solved an issue I had and it now works for the usual use cases I have.
-
jup, I made a big mistake when writing the reply and tested again. v1 in v2 as of now doesn´t trigger a warning message.
-
The warning to make a copy of v1 files seems to have indeed vanished?

Can it be purchased for 8$ a month like on that tweeting platform or is it a genuine one for free?
