Questions about Batch Jobs

Affinity Photo V1.6.7

MacOS X Hi,

I have a couple of questions about Batch Jobs.

I have a number of .afphoto files set up in the following folder structure:

 

Images (Folder)

        Numbers (Folder)       

              Image-Numbers-001

              Image-Numbers-002

              Image-Numbers-003

          etc.

        Characters (Folder)       

              Image-Characters-001

              Image-Characters-002

              Image-Characters-003

          etc.

        Colors (Folder)       

              Image-Colors-001

              Image-Colors-002

              Image-Colors-003

          etc.

I want to export these to .png files in a different folder but maintaining the existing folder hierarchy, e.g. 

OutputFolder/Numbers/Image-Numbers-001

OutputFolder/Numbers/Image-Numbers-002

OutputFolder/Numbers/Image-Numbers-003

OutputFolder/Characters/Image-Characters-001

OutputFolder/Characters/Image-Characters-002

OutputFolder/Characters/Image-Characters-003

etc.

 

I managed to setup a batch job to do this, but all the files are stored in "OutputFolder" (e.g. it doesn't create the subfolder).

Also, having created a batch job, is there anyway to save it, so it can be easily rerun later or on another machine?

Thanks for any help or advice.

All the Best

Dave

Hi Dave,

Unfortunately at the moment there is no way to make a batch job export files to multiple folders. There is also no way to save the batch job and export it /use it on another computer I'm afraid. We are looking to improve the Batch Job feature in the future

Thanks

That's a real shame, as a stop-gap, it would be good if it just saved the last set of parameters so they were already set from last time when you run the New Batch Job command. You might also add a button to reset them.....
