[SOLVED] Affinity Photo2 / Designer 2 - Where are stored my personnal set-ups (brushes, curves, …)


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm moving to a new computer, Ive installed the Affinity suite 2
I've transfered all the Affinity 2 application support folders :
My Home Directory/Library/Application Support/Affinity Designer 2 (+ Photo 2 + Designer 2)
I've transfered all the Affinity 2 preferences :
My Home Directory/Library/Preferences/com.seriflabs.afinity…2.plist

Everything works but all of my personal setups (brushes, curves, LUTs) are not restored 🤔

Somebody knows where are they stored in Macos, please ?

For V1 apps from the Affinity store those were in ...

--> "/Users/username/Library/Application Support/Affinity Publisher/user"
--> "/Users/username/Library/Application Support/Affinity Designer/user"
--> "/Users/username/Library/Application Support/Affinity Photo/user"

For V1 MAS apps in ...

--> "/Users/username/Library/Containers/com.seriflabs.affinitydesigner/Data/Library/Application Support/user"

... etc.

☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.8 ◆ OSX El Capitan
☛ Affinity V2.3 apps ◆ MacOS Sonoma 14.2 ◆ iPad OS 17.2

Thanks v_kyr, but it doesn't seem to works like that with de V2 … it's weird.

I've recently saw on a Win box that certain things there for V2 were now placed into the users home directory (~\.affinity\*), maybe it's for MacOS now the same (check also for hidden dirs).

Ok, I will check hidden files and I'll make an update tomorrow.

UPDATE : There's nothing in the hidden files en folders in "My Home Directory/Library/Application Support/"

These presets have to be store somewhere in MacOS of my previous computer but where ?

On a Mac, in ~/Library/Group Containers/6LVTQB9699.com.seriflabs/v2/user you should find items like raster_brushes.propcol & vector_brushes.propcol. Not sure about the others you are missing but they are probably in there too.

Thanks à lot R C-R !!!

Everything I'm looking is stored in this folder. It's perfect !

It would be a great thing to be hable to import/export all our preferences in once (brushes/presets/workspace layout/…).
