stinkykong Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 In PhotoShop, when you copy an image into your clipboard then start a new document, the document dimensions match those of the document in your clipboard. This saves a lot of time. Could this be a feature in Affinity Photo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pawa Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Hey! This already exists, I believe. At least on Windows you can Ctrl+C to whatever you want to copy and then Ctrl+Alt+Shift+N to create a new document with the contents of the clipboard. Check under File, it's the 3rd option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zbigg Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Hello, Kind suggestions/questions: - W x H or W.....H...label in resize Document by dimensions/size.... - Macros unrolled by default-terrible mess.. - Key/shortcut assignment to the macros - Defined macros can be combined together into larger structures /kinda MultiMacros/ - Match photo/color ? - Crop/Clip /existing seems bit awkward/ -how about tablet support /pressure/spread/? -how about WIA scanning from within APhoto?

stinkykong Posted August 1, 2017 Author Share Posted August 1, 2017 PAWA, thanks, yes sort of at least on Mac. You have to have an image open in another app to copy. You can't select in Finder (equivolent of My Computer), to copy/paste. I should have been more specific. Photoshop will accept clipboard contents copied from an un-opened image.

Pawa Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Aaah, I see what you mean. I had never tried it, but Ctrl+C in an image in Explorer and trying to paste into Affinity doesn't work on Windows either. Sorry it didn't help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixx Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Weird that you can copy image file in Finder and paste it as a layer in existing document but you cannot create a new document from that clipboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinkykong Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 Hmm...yes. It seems you can get all around this. While it may seem insignificant since there are so many other options, the missing option is the real time save in my opinion. Could this be a programming oversight? I don't know programming but it seems like it's almost there... could this feature be added? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
