Improvements to Content Links panel



  • Suggestions:

    • "Content" panel is called "Content Links" in Panel menu; should be identical
    • Add feature similar to Make linked... in Affinity's Resource Manager - if technically possible
    • More information in the list about the linked or embedded files: Size, linked/embedded, whatever relevant

    It is no uncommon for me to regret embedding files in the main file - either because I did so by accident or because the main file simply grows too big.

    "Make linked" in Affinity is easy and fast to use. If the file exists with the same path as when it was embedded the file instantly changes to linked. The button text changes to "Embed" and the button now does the opposite: simply embeds the file directly.

    @Ingolf "Make Linked" is doable (there is already an Update link). I add this to the backlog.

    More info can be seen when hovering over an item.

    This should be available in build 1.1.024 for images, also the panel is renamed to "Links"
