I'm wondering if it is possible to batch edit and crop multiple images..
I've recently dumped Adobe products in a hope Affinity can be a better non-(BS)subscription based alternative, but I need to figure out a few things yet.
I have taken images to merge into a time-lapse.. I have 999 images I need to crop all the exact same 16:9 , as well as use a healing/dust spot removal in the same places on each image.. using LR I know the workflow, as well as Bridge.. but I'm hoping to get away from those.

Would this be possible via making a Macro and applying it to a batch process?
I haven't tried this yet, as I have yet to learn how to make macro's in Affinity.

Hi BCPhotography and Welcome to the Forums,

Yes this would be possible. If you record a Macro of you cropping one image to the correct size, as well as using the Healing tools you need to, add it to the Macro Library and then start a New Batch job, you can set the Macro to be run as part of the batch.  

A good video tutorial for Macros would be this one and a good video for Batch processing while applying a Macro is here :)

Just one note: this will work best if you're processing JPEG, PNG, or TIFF images. If you have raw images the process won't work as well due to differences in how Photo does development of raw images during batch processing.
