No file locking for Export


Recommended Posts

When exporting (large) images the Export process takes time to get the data together for to save it. In this process the target file is not being locked, so another process would be able to create or rename a file to that target files name. As a result, Affinity Photo just overwrites the target file, although the export dialog doesn't show a warning of overwriting (because at that time, the file is not there).

In case the other process is locking the file, when Affinity Photo wants to save to it, an error appears, that Permission was denied - so the Export process fails.

File locking should prevent this.
