Why no file preview when opening afdesign file from within Affinity Designer?


Recommended Posts

When in affinity photo, and I need to find a file, and I have many files, I goto the folder I think the file will be in, and as I select a pdf or jpg file, even a png or ai file, i can see a file preview in my window, but if I select a native .afdesign file, there is no preview....this doesn't sound right. Is this an oversight or a bug or is there a setting to turn this on? right now I have to open each file to check, this is time consuming...many files...

windows 10

thanks!

You should be seeing previews; do you see previews of your native .afphoto files?

To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.

Yes, I am using MS OneDrive. ugh...

and yes, I moved an AD file to my desktop and low and behold, there is a preview.

good call, but what now?

is this something that is being worked on or blame it on Microsoft and there's nothing Serif can do?

thanks for the quick insights!
