Persist crop settings


Recommended Posts

I've recently found me cropping a number of images, always to 4x5cm at 200dpi. For every single image I had to:

- adjust crop mode to resample

- set unit to cm

- set resolution

- set desired size

I would have expected that the previous values persist, at least crop mode, unit and density.

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums.

If this is happening within the same session, then in my experience the crop mode and units will be remembered from one image to the next. If you're not seeing that I'm not sure why.

The resolution (DPI), and probably the size, are not remembered. But if you have a common set of crop settings you use you can create a Preset for them:

  1. Set the values you want.
  2. Click on the gear/cog icon to the left of the crop mode.
  3. Click on the Settings ("hamburger") menu.
  4. Choose Create Preset.

After that, if your preferred settings are not maintained automatically, you can just click on the gear/cog and choose your Preset from the list.
