    dannythedog11 got a reaction from Monozstar in Assets wont load - strange error message.   
    Hey everyone, I just wanted to say that I’m experiencing exactly the same issues across all Affinity apps on iPad. I will attempt the same reset and add a comment afterwards. It is extremely frustrating and absolutely makes using the apps difficult, I've been using Affinity since well before V2 and this is by far the most annoying issue I’ve had to date. Fingers crossed

    As a surface pattern designer I have historically used Adobe photoshop to create stand-alone repeating patterns with or without backgrounds that are also designed to incorporate texture and/or pattern. The resulting designs were saved as "defined patterns" and applied to artboards of any size using the following steps:
    edit——define pattern—-ok Open new document e.g. 10,000x10,000px edit—-fill—-contents (select pattern option as opposed to foreground or background fill) ——select required pattern from a list—-ok While I am very happy at the switch to Affinity I am struggling to figure out how to visually proof my designs this way (which are often designed using 2000px square artboards to create the repeat) when I need to be able to show that the repeat is working and simultaneously put the size it was created at into perspective. Also, some websites require large areas of repeat (up to 15,000px square) to enable on demand printing of fabric in the specific design.
    I have attached a couple of examples below to demonstrate the kind of work that I am discussing here.
    As a designer who is relatively new to digital systems I am focused on the creative aspect of my work and not especially tech savvy, so would appreciate an “idiots guide” approach to this if anyone has the time to respond. Any support with this would be much appreciated.
    Kind regards

    Hi Summersara,
    Thank you for your input. 
    I have tried a few different variations on tiling of patterns and most often seem to end up with hairlines in my background even if I complete the background in pixel persona. As a result I have gone back to the way I used to achieve large repeats of patterns using the wrap and affine functions in photo, which gives a perfect result. The only difference is that I create the symbols/assets in vector persona. My issue is just scaling up the finished repeating area so that I can upload to sites like Society6 who require a finished size upload..
    Regards
