Import .cube presets for Affinity Photos

[PJPycroft]

Just bought Affinity Photo Presets and it contain around 2000's .cube presets of different setting.

How can I import & category those presets on Affinity Photos

Thanks

You can only import them one at a time. And if you import all of them you are likely to have performance issues using them, because when you open the Adjustments panel and select LUT adjustment then Photo will need to generate, on-the-fly, a preview for all of the LUT adjustments you've imported. That can take awhile.

And I don't think you can categorize them.

To import one .cube file:

1. Click the Adjustments icon at the bottom of the Layers panel:
2. From the list, choose LUT...
3. Click the Load LUT... button in the dialog:
4. Navigate to your .cube file and choose it.
5. Click the Add Preset button at the top of the dialog, and provide a name for your Preset.

My Affinity Photo will not open .cube files. It states they are not supported?

You don't Open .cube files in Photo. Create a LUT Adjustment Layer in your image, and click on the Load LUT button in the Adjustment dialog.

or, if you work on an M1 mac you simply don't bother, because they do not work properly.
