Fastest way to save / overwrite files?


Recommended Posts

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!

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).
