Hellodesigners Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Hi, My following question is about a Svg placed as a linked file not as an embedded file. Is there a way to edit it and get all its duplicates updated (as what happen when the svg is placed as an embedded file)? The reason i want to place the svg as a linked file instead of an embedded is to have a lighter affinity designer file Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Take a file named This.svg and place it linked into an Affinity Designer file called One.afdesign. If you have the Preferences for Designer set to update automatically the linked files then if you edit the file This.svg an application, any application, then the next time you open One.afdesign the placed, linked file will be updated. In fact you shouldn't have to re-open the file One.afdesign to get the linked file updating. If you do not have the preference set to update automatically you will have to use the Resources Manager to update linked files.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
