moonchou Posted November 3, 2016 Posted November 3, 2016 Hope the app can save studio settings.When I do different work I use to make different layout for it. For example when I do graphic design I just need 5 tools from the studio, but when I do UI design or layout I need other tools from the studio. predick, Tori, Cuando and 5 others 8 Quote
Fixx Posted November 3, 2016 Posted November 3, 2016 Also, when I change my monitor setup (work 24"/home 27"/without external), studio palettes tend to drift to the middle of display. I would like to reset them to my favourite layout (colour/layers/info). Saved studio setting would help. moonchou and Follhks 2 Quote

e011011000110110001101111 Posted June 28, 2017 Posted June 28, 2017 Necroposting this back to life. Please please add this feature. I use dual monitors at work and single at home. Having to reset all my panels at work after I've opened Designer at home is a totally unnecessary hassle. marciacocco and Tori 2 Quote
FunStorm Posted June 24, 2018 Posted June 24, 2018 +1 For this. I was really surprised that saving studio settings is not a feature. Tori 1 Quote
reminous Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 I fell you... I've being syncing all my assets, shortcuts in a DropBox folder since I started using Affinity as my main application... and it sucks, because any change I do I have to remember to upload to the cloud and sometimes I just forget... however it is the best approach I've found for now.

supersaiyansubtlety Posted July 9, 2018 Posted July 9, 2018 I too want to be able to save Studio settings Tori 1 Quote
Tori Posted August 15, 2019 Posted August 15, 2019 Like, today already! What a total waste of time and frustration having to reset these - and I've not figured out if even saving the toolbar after I've reconfigured it to fit my needs can be done. I love these programs, but the lack of these basic functionalities really put a damper on a should-be smooth creative experience. Quote
Nuth1n Posted August 19, 2019 Posted August 19, 2019 +1 for this Save custom workspaces Sync settings between suite apps For example if I save presets and a studio layout in AF DESIGNER I would like to access these same things from Publisher. It's a little annoying to have to setup up every export preset twice. And rearrange all my panels every time a new version launches. PaulEC, Cuando and Tori 3 Quote
PaulEC Posted August 19, 2019 Posted August 19, 2019 This is a request that has been around since (I'm almost sure) the apps were first released. I really can't believe that it is so difficult to implement. The information is obviously saved somewhere, so surely it's just a case of being able to keep different versions and re-load them as needed. woefi and marciacocco 2 Quote Acer XC-895 : Core i5-10400 Hexa-core 2.90 GHz : 32GB RAM : Intel UHD Graphics 630 – Windows 11 Home - Affinity Publisher, Photo & Designer, v2 (As I am a Windows user, any answers/comments I contribute may not apply to Mac or iPad.)

Tori Posted August 19, 2019 Posted August 19, 2019 Thanks, CLC, but we shouldn't have to know computer-speak (if I wanted to be a programmer, I wouldn't be purchasing programs to assist me with my work! hehe) to do something that I truly think should be an innate bit of functionality. Shoot: even Microsoft allows you to customize your workspace and if they can do it. ... I actually fear making minor config changes. Quote

I agree fully, but it's the only non-manual solution I currently know. I guess it's better than not having any solution at all.

budlix Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 +1 It's Must have! Sometimes when I'm rearranging palettes (joining whole palettes, rearranging tabs), sometimes happen that some palette disappear (but under the View>Stuidio is checked that it appears) so I have to reset the Studio and arrange it all again from scratch, which is headache.

pummelfee Posted November 20, 2019 Posted November 20, 2019 I really appreciate Affinity for the software suite, BUT: WHY IS AFFINITY SO IGNORANT? This feature is a must-have nowadays for every Laptop user.. Many of us use Laptops and second screens, and plug out the 2nd screen on the go (of course). Please, affinity team, don't ignore the needs of your customers completely like the big players. This ignorance pushed me from Adobe to Affinity once... Example: we have wonderful technology like Apple Sidecar (or Duet display for older devices), were I can have my MacBook Pro as the workstation/main screen and the iPad as the 2nd screen were I can place all those studio windows. That could be wonderful, if we could save this workspace. I guess one developer would be able to implement this within minutes. Frankly: Professional work on laptops is not possible, as long as we have to change monitor setups. I always thought Affinity is innovative... So PLEASE give us the option to save workspace settings!! tytus 01UNIT and PaulEC 2 Quote

Serif, as a matter of policy, usually does not comment on feature requests. They read them, and factor them into their planning, but generally we will not know Serif's reaction, or whether something is being worked on until (if it is being worked on) it is about ready for release. For this particular request, Serif have announced that we should watch for the 1.9 beta, when it becomes available.
