Assets not transferring from Photo to Designer

[Dannis856]

Hello. I upgraded to V2 and I've noticed that my stuff isn't interchangeable between Photo and Designer like it was in V1. All my assets, brushes, etc have to be uploaded into each program separately. I don't recall having to do that with V1 or am I wrong? Has anyone else run into this?

Hi @Dannis856

For example, if you want to share styles across programmes, select the category, click on the hamburger menu and select Link Categorie.

This also works with brushes, assets, etc. 

If you insert content via File -> Insert Content, it is automatically shared with all Affinity programmes.

Yes, you had to do that in V1. Nothing was shared automatically then.

Now, it can be, if you manually Link it as @Komatös showed, or if you turn on the Preference in General to automatically link new categories.
