Macro for applying black or white border before final export to JPEG?

[AffinityNewbie7]

Is there a macro available to apply a colored border before the final export?

The way it will work:

1. Insert a Fill layer with maximum 2048 pixel in the longest direction while maintaining the original aspect ratio.

2. Make the image or pixel layer maximum 2000 pixel in the longest direction while maintaining the aspect ratio.

3. Apply border on the pixel layer via fx > outline.

Thanks 😊

There may be something similar in the Resources forum, @AffinityNewbie7.

Here is a search to look for macros there: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/search/&q=macro&type=forums_topic&nodes=11

Certainly there are macros that will do step 2. For example:

Or you can do resizing in a batch job.

But I'm not sure your exact workflow works. I think you need to:

1. Resize the image to 2000px.
2. Increase the canvas size, leaving the image centered.
3. Add the fill layer at the bottom.

Once you have the fill layer, I don't see the need for adding an additional border, or I don't understand what you're trying to do.
