Copy/paste slice or edit all slices -- is this possible?

[Pining 6]

I'm creating a font using Affinity Designer and I have to export each letter individually, this could be done easily but I need the slices to be 256x256 in their dimensions. Right now the only ways I know how to do this is by either dragging and creating a lot of 256x256 slice squares or by turning each letter object into a slice but then I would have to rescale those as well! 

 

It would be really useful if there was a way to just copy drag a slice, or being able to edit the transform of multiple selected slices. Am I missing something or is this really not possible?

Hi Pining,

 

It isn't possible to duplicate slices or apply a transformation to all of your slices I'm afraid. You will have to resize each slice manually

 

Thanks

It's very dull! And very convenient!

You could set the size   256w, 256h   in the slice size box

 

 

It is then possible to save these attributes and copy them to multiple slices using the copy paste format buttons.

 

 

the slices will all be 256 x 256., even if they started out bigger. It resizes the slice to 256 x 256 but does not keep the aspect ratio. So you must make the slice square.

 

It might help, or not ?

I want to pick up this thread. Isn't it possible to bring these simple functions, which already exist in the Photo Persona to the Export Persona?

This is ridiculous, all done with assets using the main affinity designer tools and now I have to deal with such headaches and lack of features in the export persona, this part of the app needs major improvements

Soooh, any reaction from you Affinity guys to put this on the map?  You understand how maddening (stupid) this is right?
