    Hey Dan, thanks for such a thorough reply. Yeah, zooming in or out does help. I’ve not had the issue for a bit, but will screengrab this for future reference. Love the App, thanks again!

    I had the same issue. If you want to copy the gradient from one block of text to the other, go to the color panel, then swatches, then gradients, select the text with the gradient then from the hamburger menu select add current fill to pallet. Then go from there… hope that helps.

    iPad Pro 12.9” 2021, up to date. This problem would occasionally occur before update regardless of file, i would simply close the file then reopen to fix. But it seems to be happening way more since the update. RPReplay_Final1709307600.mov

    Hey Callum, just following up mate, I have the above screen recording, but this might highlight it better. Unfortunately it’s still happening (intermittently) on random projects. Usually going out of the project and coming back in fixes it, but I am having to do it repeatedly on this one. I solved it by taking the elements I needed and transferring them to a new document.

    Walt, you are a legend sir. I wish it was integrated into the mouse, along with zoom, but I’ll take it, thanks!

    I fairly regularly use my ipad as a desktop, especially when not illustrating. The single biggest hurdle however is not having a functioning hand tool. I have a Magic Trackpad but it simply isn’t adequate for maintaining a decent workflow. If a right click hand tool was introduced that would be very welcome. Also currently the wheel tracks the vertical axis which is great for reading text, but a more suitable application for AD specifically would be a zoom feature. Love your Apps, love that you have this suggestion thread, keep up the great work!

    Sure thing, here you go man. I don’t know whether it’s because I open another app for a bit, then return to AD. I restarted the app and everything corrected itself. RPReplay_Final1694965783.mp4

    When working on a document yesterday I found the above issue. I worked out that by opening up a new document with margins/bleed off they would be visible, but opening up the same document this morning, they’re gone again. Note: I just went back in to the same document to get a screen grab, and now they’re visible again! It seems to be intermittent.

    You’re a legend. Thanks mate

    I know I’m probably missing something simple… but… this:

    Designer 2 has vector warp and a ton of other stuff.

    With the move tool selected in AD 1, there was a button at the bottom of the screen that allowed an object to be expanded and contracted from it’s central point. It’s funny how you don’t realize the amount you use something until it’s no-where to be seen. Apologies if I’m being dense, but would love to know wtf it’s lurking (in AD 2). Thanks 🙏🏻

    I didn’t know about global swatches, thanks for that.

    I removed the adjustments, and yeah, you’re totally right svg (for export) worked with adjustments deleted, was rasterized when not.. I guess I never attempted to export an adjusted file in that format before, which seems odd. I attached the file anyway. I don’t suppose there’s a way round this? Thanks a lot for your help! frame.afdesign

    Unfortunately it’s everything, not just unsupported elements. The whole thing becomes rasterized, in complete contrast to AD1 that didn’t. I could just export within the studio in any format that supported vector, and on the whole it would be fine. Very disappointing, but also a pain in the a** since some clients require vector format. On the whole I’m loving AD2 but there arguably couldn’t be a worst area to have bugs.
  16. Mark Freeman
    exports svg’s as raster, therefore not being scalable, nor vector? I deleted AD1 and now regret it mainly because it was the only avenue I had for exporting my work as vector. The best option so far is avoiding the studio altogether and exporting as a pdf with all options to rasterize turned off, but then it doesn’t export the adjustments. Thanks! Edit…. it’s AD2 on ipad I’m using.

    Thanks guys, I should have been more specific, I need it in designer. Thanks anyway 🙏🏻

    Fyi, I’m aware of the navigation panel, but spacebar hand tool would be awesome.
  19. Mark Freeman
    Is there a hand tool shortcut using keyboard and mouse in lieu of touching the screen? I use my Ipad like a desktop, and it would be great to not have to reach up to navigate. That or a select magnification area by drawing a box would be awesome. I’d put this in the feedback section since I know the first option is likely unavailable, but the thread’s been archived. Thanks!
  20. Mark Freeman
    I think that is totally fair.
  21. Mark Freeman
    It’s funny because most tools required to complete the vast majority of potential client’s work exist in designer. Admittedly there are some that would be nice, and would speed up workflow, but as someone who uses both pen and keyboard/mouse I find it perfect, especially compared to AI on ipad, which is junk, I have to rent it periodically for exporting in AI format for certain clients and that. is. it. Speaking of which… if you’re wanting all those things and you are a professional, why aren’t you renting desktop illustrator instead of again, whining here?
  22. Mark Freeman
    Good question, why do you care so much? I use AD professionally on the ipad. Yeah I had to use some workarounds for AD1, and AD2 is still flawed, but overall fantastic, especially at the price, and if you compare it to AI for the ipad there is no competition…. none, and it’s $9.99 a freaking month. Vectorizing is the only thing it has going for it. Your description sounds like you have never used AD, but yet you are on here whining? “zero tools for vector designing” 🤣
  23. Mark Freeman
    Unrelated since It’s reference to AD2, but guys…. seriously…. excellent job with this app! You’ve outdone yourself. You were already miles ahead of AI on the Ipad, my chosen hardware, now you’ve lapped ‘em by miles. Some of the improvements were small but a big deal for me (artboard background shade altertation being one), others were world changing like the vector warp (although imho it could be a little more prominent in the UI, but VERY small gripe). Super pleased with it, great job!!!!
  24. Mark Freeman
    Some said it would forever be a dream! Yes brother…. it……... it is here.
  25. Mark Freeman
    Mmm, well the adjustments studio in AD1 operated in a similar manner… a layer was created that allowed alterations to be non destructive, yet it was way more prominent in the UI. Not entirely sure if you’re being passive aggressive with your “big if”.
