LostInTranslation Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Way back in V1, there was a bug, that PNG-export did not remember the area chosen (Whole document, Selection area, Selection only). Neither when coming back to the dialog and neither in a preset! I was told by a staff member, that this was indeed a bug and would be pushed to the top. Now we are at V2 and this bug still exists, despite the all new dialog. When will this finally be fixed? It's a real pain, exporting a number of PNGs this way. Reproduce: Export a PNG with any given settings and use "Selection only". Make it a preset. When you export your next image, all settings will be kept but the area. This is possible true for the other apps as well, but I mostly use Designer. ashf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashf Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 No, this is not a bug and it's by design since V1. But there has been multiple requests for it including mine.https://www.google.com/search?q=export+remember+area+site:forum.affinity.serif.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the point of a preset then? Let's hope, they care this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can gather, Serif never confirmed it was a bug. It was considered a "feature request". When they post to a topic about a bug, they've never that I can find used the phrasing as "push to top". They always state they will bump it. Try to be accurate if you're going to complain about what Serif has done or is going to do. Your posts appear to be embellishments, biased toward what you want Serif to do. When others find posts like this, it starts to snowball, as they believe what you've posted. While it's clear you want the PNG export to default to a specific setting, there's lots more that do not want that behavior.
