Tagging files for batch processing


Recommended Posts

As I work on a file in Affinity Photo 2, is there a way to tag a file so it is added to the batch processing list? I'm thinking RtClick-> Add to Batch

In Silkypix, files can be given a "develop" tag for future batch development. In Daminion, files can be flagged in a variety of ways and then batch-selected according to their flag for batch export or other processing such as renaming or moving.

From what I see (Affinity newbie here!) Affinity's method of adding files to the batch list is very cumbersome and inefficient. I hope I'm wrong!

No, there isn't. 

You could Save or Export them to a specific folder, then later in File > New Batch Job you could easily select all of them to add to the batch. 

But there's no way to do what you're asking, today.
