lastfuture Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Hello, I'm sorely missing the feature to export palettized PNG-8 with alpha from Affinity Designer for web development. I can export PNG-24 with alpha or PNG-8 with binary (on or off) transparency, but not PNG-8 using a palette in which the colors of the palette have alpha values attached. This is a feature that's supported by both the standalone tool ImageAlpha (converts PNG-24 to PNG-8 with alpha) and by Photoshop's Export dialog that you get by right-clicking layers. I'm using PNG-8 with alpha for image size optimization, especially for spritesheets and graphics that would not quite work as SVG. At the moment my workflow is: Export PNG-24, open each PNG in ImageAlpha, manually adjust the settings there, save. I have to repeat this in parts every time I change a graphic, cancelling the benefits continuous export would provide me with. Please add this feature Cheers -- Alina ImageAlpha is using "pngquant and pngnq-s9 and alpha-channel-aware posterizer."

mwcs Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 I agree - png files exported from AE are too big for web use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
