fmlfoto Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 How do you go about CREATING VERSIONS OF THE SAME OPENED LAYERS FILE??? How do yo DUPLICATE an open file so you do not have to repeat time wasting raw processing + basic editing steps ???? I do not see how the duplicate group of layer command would replace duplicate file in PS??? I guess saving an affinity extension layers file would work but why not within the app????

Staff Callum Posted November 24, 2015 Staff Share Posted November 24, 2015 Hi Fmlfoto, It isn't possible to open the same file twice in the app. You would have to open the file once and develop it make any changes you wanted to make then save it. Then right click the saved file in Finder and choose duplicate to make a second version which you could also have open in the app. C Quote Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP.

anon1 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Can't you also copy the layer and then go to "document - new from clipboard" or something like that? Callum 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can do that aslong as the documents are the same size :) C anon1 1 Quote Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP.

manu schwendener Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I'd like to be able to do that, too.
