Affinity Photo V2 Styles - User is limited to five per category and no folder tree of categories offered.


Recommended Posts

1) Currently appears to be limited to five user styles per category. Suggest removing the limit.

2) Also suggest allowing Style Categories to be listed in an expanding/collapsing tree structure. Allow dragging categories into a folder tree structure (PS Example)  Eg:

Don's Styles

     Bevels

     Drop Shadows

Rather than being all mixed up on the same level with whatever defaults Affinity offers (Affinity Sample) Eg:

Bevels

Default (Offered as standard by Affinity)

Don's Styles

Drop Shadows.

There's no limit, or certainly not as small as 5. Here's one I just made with 6, for example:

Perhaps you were just trying to add one that would duplicate* an existing one? That's not allowed.

* But please don't ask me to explain what counts as a duplicate. I've forgotten what I learned about that for V1, and I don't know if it's the same in V2.

Hi Walt

OK and thanks Walt. Blocking duplicates would explain it. 

I was trying to recreate my Photoshop Bevels style sets and hadn't noticed that the rejected styles were duplicates except for the Photoshop "Technique" options (of Smooth, Chisel Hard & Chisel Soft) that Affinity doesn't offer.
