Musicalbox23 Posted June 25, 2022 Posted June 25, 2022 Newb question. Is there a faster way to quickly open, edit and re-save photos in Affinity Photo? I've got a folder fill of jpgs that need to be edited. All I know how to do is open a file (which seems to create a proprietary Affinity formatted file), then use the Export function to re-ouput it as another jpg. But this new jpg doesn't seem to overwrite the old / original one, so I end up with two copies. Feeling daft. What am I missing? Many thanks! Quote
NotMyFault Posted June 25, 2022 Posted June 25, 2022 This is how Affinity works, you aren’t missing anything. Best is to save edited files in a new folder, and delete the originals later (if you are sure the files are no longer needed).
