Convert Photoshop .csh files to Affinity Photo assets


RevTim

Recommended Posts

I have a load of Photoshop shape files I've collected over the years and it always bugged me that there wasn't an easy way to import each .csh file into Affinity, especially now I have got rid of Photoshop all together. Fortunatley I saved all my PS plugins and shape files before uninstalling.

I have just found a website which lets you upload the .csh files and then you can download each shape as a .svg vector image. It is then a slightly laborious process of open each vector svg file in Affinity and adding them to your Assets.

Here's where you can upload your PS shape files:

I’ve only ever used an old version of Photoshop Elements, but it came with quite a large collection of custom shapes. Thanks for the useful link!

Just drag/drop (multiple) svg files directly to the assets panel, provided a category is created and opened.
note: It may not show up instantly but use sort by name or show as list refreshes the thumbs to show.

btw you can add screenshots to the forum where it will display inline in your post so no one needs to download a file to see it.
