Yeah, but if it doesn't export at all you have everything stuck in it's own internal format . So export is core functionality (unless you only print everything)

I export using the following format:
PNG (non-destructive)
JPG (lossy)
SVG (Universal Vector)
EPS (Universal Vector)
EXR (advanced, non-destructive or lossy)
If I want to use any other format,
Then I'll use XnViewMP.
In some cases for JPG,
I'll use MozJpeg (bitrate super optimized)

XnViewMP supports a number of features,
Allows you to calculate the maximum number of colors for a picture.
Affinity photos do not support this feature.
I use XnViewMP to do this (no need Affinity photo supports it)

Affinity Photo is a picture editing program,
Not a universal picture format converter.

One reason we can discuss online here is that deep in the past someone came to the conclusion that there should be development in transporting information. Thus the idea was born printing information written on stones on paper instead of carrying the stones. (…)

The best editor will vanish if it ignoring changes outside, which belong to it's "core" targets: sharing results.

Keep in mind that you can never complete 100% of the operation in a single program.
Affinity photos currently have some of the most basic export formats. Not 0.

I tend to use multiple programs,
And you tend to do your thing in as few programs as possible.
This is the difference between you and me.

You are aware of the title of this thread "WebP in Affinity Photo" ?

I'm sure by now all readers of this thread know that you are an ardent admirer of XnViewMP. Your missionary zeal in honor, but this is - according to the headline - about something else.

I would really appreciate it if you would respect that.

I believe that the debate should stop.
It's no use continuing to argue.

I can. But in compare to you I do not abuse this thread for advertising this product.

If you tend to use multiple programs, no one will prevent you from doing so. Those who want webp as a direct output of AP aim for a different way of working.
