tim.jones Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Hi Very pleased to be able to manage assets within AD and am spending a great deal of time creating various libraries for our company :) I therefore wish to ensure that the growing asset library is both backed up frequently and shared as seamlessly as possible with my colleagues. I know that I can export assets to a file, but I would like to write scripts to backup and share with my colleagues whenever I make a change to the library of assets. Could you therefore let me know where are the assets are actually stored on a mac, so that I can target this directly rather than requiring to export each time I make a change and manually redistribute? Is it possible to configure one (or more) locations to store assets? Thanks for your help, regards, Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted November 23, 2016 Staff Share Posted November 23, 2016 Hi tim.jones Welcome to Affinity Forums :) The assets file is located here: /Users/{your username}/Library/Containers/com.seriflabs.affinitydesigner/Data/Library/Application Support/user/assets.propcol Currently it's not possible to set other or multiple locations to store assets.

Sunset Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I rename the new asset collection and then export it to a folder I created on my hard disk drive, I've done this for a few collections now - serves two purposes, a backup and I can move it to a different computer. A very useful facility.
