Dear all,
is there a way to save certain preferences for the Tools in Affinity Photo?
I would particularly appreciate if there was a way to not having to change Mode and Tolerance when using the Magic Wand Selector (it always jumps back to "New" and "20% Tolerance".

Also (I assume this question has been asked before, I will check the history): is there a way to export files in 600dpi and more?
I was told it is considered to be unnessecary nowadays (becuase pixels are all that counts); however, a number of organizations/firms still require "hi-resolution files of 600dpi or more" and I am tired of the discussions with them.

Thanks a lot!

Stephan

Just type your desired DPI into the box, rather than using the slider or pull-down. (On Windows, but presumably on Mac, too.)

This isn't currently possible, but has been requested previously before and is something we plan on implementing in a later version!

Thank you — and I look very eagerly forward to the glorious day this will be implemented.
This would really save SO MUCH preparation time (I estimate about a fifth of the time I spent on reworking pictures): if one wouldn't have to change each and every tools presets for each document one opens!
