nickbatz Posted August 23, 2023 Posted August 23, 2023 Is there a way to save [what used to be called] snapshots? Save As, Save History are workarounds of course, but I just wondered if I've missed the setting. TIA Affinity Photo 2.2.0 1954 Mac Studio
carl123 Posted August 23, 2023 Posted August 23, 2023 Snapshots are still available in the Snapshots panel Activate that panel if it is currently not on display To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.
R C-R Posted August 23, 2023 Posted August 23, 2023 You say you are using the 2.2.0 beta version, but the Snapshot panel can be enabled from the Windows menu, just like in the current 2.1.1 retail version.

nickbatz Posted August 23, 2023 Author Posted August 23, 2023 Okay, but last time I found it (before forgetting where it is - thanks for reminding me) it was called something else and the two "snapshots" I created weren't saved with the file.

Not sure what you mean about it being called something else because at least for me the panel is called "Snapshots" in all versions of AP, including V1 & the retail & beta V2 versions. Also, the snapshots are always saved with the file for me in all versions but if this is something you are seeing only in the 2.2.0 1954 beta, it might be a good idea to mention it in the Other New Bugs and Issues in the Betas forum.

nickbatz Posted August 23, 2023 Author Posted August 23, 2023 Hang on, I'm wrong - snapshots are saved. Good. I wonder what the feature with a similar name was, which wasn't saved? Anyway, thanks for the help.

The only thing I can think of that you might mean is the Sources panel, but since I don't use it I'm not sure that is even relevant.....

nickbatz Posted August 24, 2023 Author Posted August 24, 2023 I think I got it confused with Save Current Viewpoint. Anyway, we're cooking with induction now. All good. Thanks.
