Affinity Rat Posted June 5, 2024 Posted June 5, 2024 I have a multi-layered file >50 layers and want to create separate images from each layer without copying each one to a new file. Slicing cumbersome too. I was hoping they could be printed as pages. Quote

That would certainly be true with multiple Artboards, or multiple Pages, but that doesn't sound right for multiple layers on a single canvas/artboard/page. @Affinity Rat: Did I misunderstand your setup?

My bad, I must have been thinking of artboards.
