Hello! This is a FYI request from an Android Developers view.

I am an Android Developer and tried your program as a tool to export some PSD-file-mockups of a App-design.
I really like the program so far with all its functionality and I do like the "export-persona". But one thing is really anoying.

There is an option, when you export a slice, to choose what should be in the file-name. You can there choose the "scale-suffix"
This puts an "@1x", "@2x", "@3x" in your filename to seperate the files in a really sufficiant way. This is a amazing on MAC where the
"@X" suffix has a real use. BUT, when it comes to Android development this is a real pain.

This is the error straight from Android studio:
"Error: '@' is not a valid file-based resource name character: File-based resource names must contain only lowercase a-z, 0-9, or underscore"
This means that I now have to go and rename all those files by hand, wich was something I wanted to avoid with exporting the files through Affinity Designer.

There is an simple fix for this. Make a new suffix that is made for android without the "@" and it will be perfect.

Thank you for your time!

 Ah... is Android export to hdpi, xhdpi, xxhdpi etc. still on the AD "road map"?

I'm porting an iOS app to Android using Flutter and not being able to export assets like you can for iOS @1x, @2x & @3x is proving to be a major pain. This request goes back to 2014! and I'm sure a few AD users would appreciate the feature.

Thanks
