Recordable Macros
Macros enable you to record an unlimited number of actions which you can save and replay whenever you like. You can even play macros as part of a batch process, making previously laborious tasks possible in a few clicks.
What's New
Version 2.4 brings some key new features and improvements to the Affinity suite, which you can read all about below.
- Layer States added to Affinity Designer and Affinity Publisher
- Already a feature in Photo, the States Panel is an exciting addition to Designer and Publisher, particularly useful for managing different variations of a project or campaign.
- Previously if you wanted to toggle between artboards in Designer or spreads in Publisher, you would need to toggle the visibility of the appropriate layers on each one separately – a tedious task when you're working from many different artboards/spreads. But now, the new States Panel gives you a much better way to work since you can:
- Capture the current layer visibility across your document
- Create queries based on various criteria to make a selection or toggle visibility of layers
- Additional notes (including changes to existing feature in Photo):
- As well as toggling visibility of queries, there is an additional button to select all layers that fulfil the criteria specified in the query. This is also a new function now available in Affinity Photo.
- For those who used the States Panel in Affinity Photo, you will notice we have changed the name of what were previously called 'Smart States' to 'Queries'.
- DWG and DXF export added to Affinity Designer
- Set selection box
- Double-click / tap to switch from Node to Move Tool
- Filename available as variable in Export Persona
- Ability to lock insertion targets
- Spacebar modifier for 'Lock Children'
- Space Horizontal / Vertical now considers key object
- Size / Rotate objects to same
- 32-bit HDR PNG support added
- Improved RAW processing and support for 50+ new camera models
