Macros Imported, but not shown in library

[jf_maier]

Hey guys,

 

i have missed to download the freebies (epic skies) from the latest update (affinity photo for Mac).

Nevertheless, I decided to purchase the epic skies pack from uplift. When I tried to import the "epic skies adjustments.afmacros" ) file to affinity photo the macros a text appeared that tells me "imported new library categories". However, the adjustment tool or the macro is not shown in my library. Any suggestions how it can be shown in the library?

 

I would appreciate any help

 

Thank You

Hi jf_maier,

Welcome to Affinity Forums

Go to menu View ▸ Library to display the Library panel in case it's not visible. You should have a category there (probably the last one) named Uplift - Epic Skies - click the small arrow on its left to expand it and access the macro.

Hi MEB,

 

Thanks for your reply.

The library panel is displayed but the category uplift epic skies is not displayed although it is imported

Are you certain there was a file named "epic skies adjustments.afmacros" included with your purchase? On the Uplift web page there is no mention of a file by that name in the "What's Included" tab, just the items shown below:

Do you also have a file named "QuickStart_Guide.pdf," probably in the same folder that includes the "Overlays & Macro" folder shown in your screenshot?

 

If so, it should include instructions for installing the afmacros file in Affinity Photo, which should be mentioned by name. There also should be an "Uplift-Epic Skies-Overlays-EULA.pdf" file in the same location, which explains the licensing terms & also mentions Serif & Affinity by name.
