How to export curves presets? Where Affinity stores presets?

[bbartlomiej]

Hi,

I am trying to save some curves presets for future use and later I'd like to move them to my second PC. I've went through AppData/Roaming/Affinity/ directory but no luck. I know how I named my curves preset but still can't find it.

How may we backup presets? How may we restore them afterwards?

Hi Bbartlomiej,

Welcome to the forums

If you navigate to: C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\Affinity\Photo\1.0\user\ you should fined a adjustments.propcol file. It will hold all of your presets you can back it up by simply making a copy of it and can restore them by moving the .propcol file into this folder.

Thanks, it seems like it is a binary file that I can't edit manually.

Is it possible to define a file and manually enter curve values and then import it into Affinity Photo? I have a computed curve which I'd like to use but I don't see any way to import curve settings.

Yes, it's binary and not editable.

No, there's no way to import a manually-defined file as you suggest. You could post a request in the Feature Requests forum.
