sunandskystudios Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 Current issue: For any of us who use Affinity photo in pair with LUT's, it is a headache when we have over 2000 lookup tables to import as a preset. In its current standing propcol files are not an editable file and there is no way to batch import 2000 LUT's. I'm not about to sit here and add 2000's files by hand one by one with the risk of them being lost on a milestone update to the software. There is no reason for us not to have a Batch import at this stage of Affinity Photo's development. Proposed solution: Give us a folder that we can drop our LUT's into that will system link to the adjustments.propcol file. Could be as simple as a python, C++, C#, JS, Java etc filesystem scan that looks for a lut file in the specified folder by looking for the folder. then looking for .cube file types loads the cube file and extracts the preset name that is required for the adjustments.propcol file from the file name and fills the appropriate fields in the propcol file.

No, the situation has not changed. By the way, I would suggest you avoid importing thousands of LUTs, and only import the ones you actually plan to use. Much like having too many unneeded fonts installed will slow down the applications while starting, having LUTs that you are not going to use will greatly slow down opening the LUT adjustment. When you open the LUT adjustment Photo will need to generate all the LUT previews before the LUT adjustment panel becomes usable, which will take a long time with thousands of LUT files.
