Batch develop raw images with macro?

[Nathan Shirley]

Is it possible to record a macro in the develop persona of Photo? Or is there some way to batch develop a folder full of RAW images using identical settings?

Many thanks.

Hi Nathan,

You can't record Macros in the develop persona at the moment I'm afraid.

Thanks

Any chance for this? I'd really prefer to do all of my "developing" in well, the Develop persona

Even if batch development was available: This was a tremendously slow and extremely inflexible solution.
Slow, because the way Affinity deals with RAWs requires opening all selected files and writing them to disk (as .afphoto - files). Take an average of ten seconds to open, a few seconds to process and a few seconds to save out to disk. Synchronizing settings on a series of 20 frames then would easily take more than five minutes. It's done instantly pretty much anywhere else.

Inflexible because a macro is nothing more than a stubborn action repeater. There's no way to skip certain operations on some files – there's proven, far more powerful solutions for batch development.

Slow and inflexible or not, I'd like it either way. Of course if they're able to make the process more efficient all the better.

What's the alternative you suggest?
