zain Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 Hi all Firstly yes I know I should have been saving my work But i'm so upset now - In Designer 1.7.3- I had 2 documents open (PSD) I had been making changes to 1 of the documents and had done some exports as JPG. Again I needed to EXPORT but I accidentally clicked, 'Edit in Photo' - this seemed to create an amalgamation of both documents, closing them both into 1 and then opened Photo. I didn't want that but then I have now lost my file. Where is the documents I was working on? Why did it do that? Is there an auto save? I have to start again now. Quote
walt.farrell Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums, @zain. When you click Edit in Photo, the active document (only the one, not both) would be closed and transfered to Photo. The other document would remain active in Designer. From Photo, to get the document back to Designer, you would use File > Edit in Designer.

zain Posted December 30, 2019 Author Posted December 30, 2019 Thanks @walt.farrell Obviously I'm a noobie and did not know this so in a panic I closed Photo to get back to Designer, thus losing my document However I had a jpg so managed to re-create it I think the document should not be closed or the Edit in Photos should not be close to Export All okay now I managed to redo it quite quickly Thanks for the info, much appreciated Quote

And on Windows (not sure about Mac), Edit in Photo and Export are quite a ways away Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.
