Preview for export persona


Recommended Posts

  • 4 months later...

Yes, this is a serious game changer and it almost was for me too, but the price of inconvenience vs the price of paying Adobe is just Tom Foolery.

Macavi mentioned 2 alternatives. I wasn't really wild about the image batch create. I wanted an image preview.

So I did a little research and found this page with 12 alternatives.   https://alternativeto.net/software/imageoptim/

It looks like there are at least 3 alternatives with image preview. Riot  and  Caesium looked pretty good to me.

BTW: One procedure, while using Affinity, around this a focused generalization where you export 3 or 4 images then focus in on the closest one to what you want. Yes, it is time consuming, but since 2012 exacting the correct K-weight economy for the optimum display is not as essential as it was in 2004. Think about it, the average cell phone image to Farcebook is around 2G. My guestimation is that soon browsers will just do the image optimization on their own. 

Don't let petty inconveniences sway you from a perfectly good software such as Affinity!

😎🤗 Okay up Date 

I downloaded for FREE,  RIOT - Radical Image Optimization Tool .  It works spectacular, just what I wanted!

  • Super easy interface
  • light weight download
  • Place to enter metadata
  • Inter specific K-weight feature and it will give you that K-weight
  • Real time preview. 

I hope this helps you all! 

Cheers, Katphood

Since 1.9, a very basic preview is now possible when exporting, but not in the export persona. It's better than nothing, but let's hope improvements are in the pipeline...
