Brackbox Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Is there a way to avoid new documents loading with the default styles. I would like them to load with my styles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loukash Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 You mean vector object styles? For example: select the Default category export it delete it from the Styles panel re-import it so that it's at the bottom of the category list, optionally rename it in case Affinity is explicitly looking for the "Default" name to load. That seems to do what you want, based on my quick test… Quote MacBookAir 15": MacOS Ventura > Affinity v1, v2, v2 beta // MacBookPro 15" mid-2012: MacOS El Capitan > Affinity v1 / MacOS Catalina > Affinity v1, v2, v2 beta // iPad 8th: iPadOS 16 > Affinity v2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 If you mean Text Styles, examine your options in the Text Styles panel when you click the panel options icon ("hamburger" menu). You should find something like "Save as default styles".

Brackbox Posted December 28, 2022 Author Share Posted December 28, 2022 Loukash, thank you. I think your suggestion may be the answer. Thanks Walt.farrell. - not specifically for text, but that may be useful to me in the future. loukash 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryFisher Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Why would the defualt styles package be deleted when an upgrade is made? I have version 2 and deleted version 1 but now find that I do not have the default styles package for either Designer or Photo. How can I get them back?

The "default" styles were changed in V2, I think, not deleted. Of course, if you were depending on those exact styles, and hadn't created another copy of them, that's pretty much the same end-result, and a rude surprise for the user. That has happened before, with Brushes, where at least twice a set of Brushes supplied in a release has been deleted by a subsequent release. Having said that, there are sometimes issues with an installation or an upgrade, that some users have experienced, which are losing information. If you can give us a screenshot of Designer, with the Assets and Styles panels visible, we can perhaps tell if that has happened to you and suggest a fix.

TerryFisher Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Thank you. I have just discovered that I still have the original Designer, and Photo, both with Styles. I have tried exporting them to my desktop and then importing into version 2 but nothing happens! Any clues? I have attached a screenshot of Designer 2, but the Styles area looks nothing like version 1, which has the Default tab! Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryFisher Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Sorry, the image I just sent was of version 1, this is version 2. As you can see, Styles appears to differ, with no Default tab showing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryFisher Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Hi, Just had another try and it's all there. Not sure why but it is now showing Just tried again and this time it worked. I now have the default Styles from verson 1, on version2. Thank you for your patience and help. Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
