Designer export preview very slow

[houser]

This text was written with Google translator:

Hello,
With Affinity Designer 2 it would be good if you could switch off the preview for file export in the settings.
For files with a lot of content, it takes a long time under my version 2.04 under MacOS Monterey until this preview is loaded.
Most of the time I just want to export the selected object.
It would be great if there was a way to permanently stop or switch off this preview.
Or at least that Affinity Designer 2 remembers the last settings and uses them again and again - in my case the "Selection only" area.

This is my wish for the developers of Affinity.
If there is already a possibility, please let me know.

Thanks and best regards,
houser

Hi Houser,

We are aware that the export preview can be slow on certain machines etc. An option to disable this preview isn't currently a feature however it has been requested in the past and may be considered for a future update.

Thanks

Hit the Export button without waiting for the preview to show.

Hello,
thank you very much for your suggestion.
Unfortunately that doesn't do me any good.
Must click "Area Selected" on every export.
But I can only do that when the preview has been loaded. It is not possible to change the selection beforehand.

Hello and thank you for the answer. Would be very happy if this feature is added by an update.
Other than that, I would like to say that Serif does a great job and that Afiinity is very good software for me. In my work, I don't miss the competitor's product at all. Except maybe a way to check PDF files for offset printing: colors, embedded fonts, overprint preview...
