Dave_MW Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Is there any way to export a document from AD with the layers still intact? I'm attempting to animate one of my creations and it's just importing the document collapsed(one layer). Do I need to export each layer as it's own separate file?

Staff MEB Posted August 29, 2016 Staff Share Posted August 29, 2016 Hi Dave_MW, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) You have to use a file format that support layers, like PSD for example (JPG and PNG doesn't support them). Which format are you using for export? And in which app are you trying to import the file? Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which format are you using for export? And in which app are you trying to import the file? Hey MEB, So I just ended up exporting as a PSD. However when exporting as a PSD the layers when grouped into folders would just merge all together(So it exported the entire project as a single layer). So I took them out of the groups and exported again. It worked well enough. I was trying to export as an EPS to keep the file vectored but it wouldn't retain the layers I set up, instead it would just export all the different shapes as separate layers.
