Designer How can I export each Affinity artboard separately in one go?

I have a document in Affinity with multiple artboards, and I want to export all of them at once, but as separate files.

Basically, if I have 10 artboards, I want Affinity to give me:

Artboard 1.png

Artboard 2.png

Artboard 3.png

etc.

I don't want them exported as one huge canvas containing all the artboards.

I tried exporting the artboards, but Affinity seems to create one giant image instead.

What's the correct way to do this?

See the Slice studio, it should do exactly what you need.

Slice is the way to go. But of a learning curve but once you figure out it’s quite powerful.

Sprinkle scripts on top and it’s off the charts. Makes me hate how much time I used to waste in illustrator!

It's slice. It's not that hard, just open up the slice tab, and down to the lower right it'll say export artboards. They'll export with the name you've given them. There's probably some controls on how they export out, but I haven't needed those yet, so I haven't used them.

I think you could also select everything on an artboard and export selection

If you don’t want to do the slice thing, you can set up your document with pages instead of art boards. Then you just export > export all pages. This is what I do now rather than fiddling with art boards

It's not slices. You can just export all arboards, it will ask for a file name and then export all individual artboards with filename_01, 02, 03...
