Fredu Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 Hi. First post here, so clearly I am new to this! Firstly, I am on the latest 1.8.3.641 I logged onto the affinity website, downloaded their free macro pack from the store (jr Macros), and tried to import. * import dialog cannot find my downloaded file. I noted the selection filter you use is *.afmacro. The downloaded file is called jr-channels.afmacros. There is No way of selecting this file without renaming it * After renaming, import actually does nothing. No errors. No Warnings. Nothing Did I do something wrong? thanks Quote
walt.farrell Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums. There are .afmacro files, and there are .afmacros files. The first holds one macro; the second holds 1 or more macros. You downloaded a .afmacros file. You would import that using the Library studio panel, not the Macro studio panel.

Suspected there was a reason for this. Thanks all 🙂 Quote
