Import images or calcs (and export calc in this case)

[Gnagnagna]

Hi,

I want to import a lot of images (jpg on png) as calc in a single project and not each one as "new project" (in Affinity photo).

I don't find how to do it.

I'm not sure what you mean by "calc", but perhaps try this:

1. Start a new project, with a document size (canvas) big enough to hold all the other images.
2. Use File > Place to select one of the images.
3. Click and drag on the canvas to place that image at the size and location you want.
4. Repeat from 2 for the next image.

Thank you

I was going to ask you if you know an easier way to load hundred of images. I make somes icons with a lot of variations. It will be nice if I can put them in a project in one selection.

And I found a solutition. I can follow your guidance but I can sellect several images. In Affinity the image will be placed one by one at each click of my mouse. So I can select a lot and click reapetitly to import them.

The problem is Affinity put each image at the point where I'm clicking and not atomatically in the center. Happyfully I can push "Ctrl" (on mac) to see the picture on my frame and to try to find the middle and then I just have to click as many as I have images to import trying to not moving my mouse.

Or I can select them latter and center all them in few click.

So my problem is solved.

You could also try...

File > New Stack

Then just ungroup the Stack (Arrange > Ungroup)

 

PS What does "calc" mean?
