Layout on two machines question

[Photographymatt84]

Hi all.

 

New to the forum so sorry if this is either in the wrong place or been asked before.

 

I started using affinity designer last year and loving it. After decades of adobe use, I was surprised at how extremely capable the program was.

 

My question is, I use Designer at work and it flows really easily. I purchased the program for personal use on my personal machine at home. Is there a way to export the layout on my work machine so its the same layout (of tools etc) at home? without doing it by hand from a screen shot? Ill mod my home layout to my needs but I feel if I use the exact same setup at home/work, it will make things alot easier in the long run.

 

regards

Matt H

Sort of. I do know a way on Windows.

1. Visit menu View -> Studio Presets -> Add Preset to save your configuration of tools.

2. Your preset is now saved under "C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Roaming\Affinity\Publisher\1.0\Workspaces\Custom". Copy the complete directory or parts of it to your office machine.

3. Wish some day import and export of Studio Presets will be included.

It wouldnt be a difficult line of code ?:-)

 

Thank you for your reply, Ill give that a try later. Much appreciated.

 

Its not a killer for me, I can work around it but I didnt know where anything was last night when using it on my home PC
