ADDING AFFINITY PHOTO2 AND DESIGNER2 AS PSD AND SVG EDITORS IN CARTOON ANIMATOR5

[chuk]

I have just installed the full version of affinity apps on my laptop but find it difficult to locate the exe files needed to be added in order to define the affinity apps as default PSD and SVG plugins in Cartoon animator 5.

 

Can somebody help me here please

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums.

Assuming you're on Windows, you probably installed the default MSIX installers for the applications. There are many third-party applications that still don't handle MSIX apps correctly, and don't give you a way to specify them as plugins. Perhaps Cartoon Animator is one of them, or perhaps you just haven't found the right specification within Cartoon Animator. You could ask their developers how they handle MSIX-based applications.

Alternatively, you can uninstall the apps you just installed, and re-install using the older kind of installers, which are now available optionally. You can find details here:

Many thanks

solved my problem of adding the apps as external PSD & SVG editors in CTA5. The affinity photo2 works just fine but the designer dosent seem to synchronise well with CTA5. 

Again thanks plenty
