How do I assign repeat-undo to a new keystroke?

[jarombra]

First of all, how do I repeat-undo in Affinity Photo in the first place? I am switching from PS CS6 to AP, and I like to set one of the buttons on my Wacom stylus to repeat-undo ('Command+Alt+Z' in Photoshop). But I can't find the keystroke options in AP.

 

While I'm at it, how do I increase the history-limit in AP - gotta max that out always!

 

Thanks everyone.

Hi Jarombra,

 

Welcome to the Forums :)

 

We only have the Undo and Redo tools, however our Undo tool works the same way as the Repeat-Undo tool. Customisable shortcuts are coming to the App but at the moment you unfortunately can't change them. To increase the history-limit you need to go to Affinity Photo > Preferences > Performance > adjust the slider for the undo limit as far as you like. I hope this helps :)

Thank you very much - this is quite helpful. One more inquiry and I'll be up to full speed with my usual digital painting workflow: is there any way to palette-pick colors on the canvas, such as the 'Control+Option+Command' operation in PS in which a color wheel flies out from the cursor location for quick color and tone selection? This is different than just holding Alt to sample colors in case there is any confusion with my question.

 

Thanks again.

Hi jarombra,

No, that's not available in Designer/Photo. Maybe you should add this to the requests section as it may become "lost" here.
