Not if the OP were just doing it for their own purposes, but they might want to share how they did it (or another user might achieve a good result and want to tell the OP their secret).

This is a way to do a little more creative vignette effect.
You get lots of control over how and where you want the effect.
If you've made it on one picture you can simply copy it to other images.
 
Cheers :)
 

Exactly that would be fabulous 🥳 Took me ages to download the around 3gb of brushes and textures of the for free offered bundles coming with 1.9 Store Sync feature in Affinity Designer on my iPad. Sadly I have to do the same again for Photo 🤯 would be nice if a DAM (Digital Assets Manager) could unify all this at least per device and then sync everything via new Store Sync 😻🚀 I hope Serif is secretly already working on that DAM 🤞
 just realized that I can at least export everything from Designer than import in Photo but all that sounds like a lot of duplication on disc direkt it? It literally screams for an additional app to unify not only sync but storage as well, don’t you think? 😁

That did the trick 🥳 Thanks a lot 🙏
 Interestingly deleting the just created category hides the synced assets again.. just a fyi

Try clicking on the hamburger (settings) icon for the Assets panel, and adding a category. Then check the category pulldown and see if they have now appeared.

Hi guys, you know how the Google Chrome sync works? It syncs ALL of your settings, extensions, theme, bookmarks, and literally everything in just one account (I don't know where they store it tho, maybe Google Drive), however, when it comes to the Affinity products, we don't have something like that (or at least I can't find it). I own the 3 apps on the Microsoft Store, and I think they probably can use Google Drive, OneDrive or a cloud app, just to save all our settings, brushes, resources, gradients, colors, and everything and sync it with the 3 apps. Listen, when I bought Affinity Photo, I had to move all my settings (performance and hotkeys for example), then I bought Affinity Designer (and I had to do the same, AND download my colors/swatches I believe that's how they call them, then import to Designer and when I open Photo and make a new swatch, then I have to add the swatch to Designer and Publisher), and then I bought Publisher and I just can't do that anymore. As I said, maybe they can use our own "space" from personal accounts from Google Drive, iCloud, OneDrive or something for a backup, then a settings option so we can decide which settings or resources want to sync, and now we can enjoy.

You only need to install fonts in one of the apps. It would be nice if the same applied to brushes and styles.

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums.
The 1.9 beta has implemented a function that may provide a start to the synchronization you're looking for. In this early stage is will only synchronize content (brushes, assets, etc.) that you've purchased from the Affinity Store. But we do not know where it will go in future releases. In theory, Serif could use a similar mechanism to synchronize local settings and resources via your Affinity Store account, too.

I asked for this a few days ago, no reason why same icons from designer including the snap magnet couldn’t be there.

Pretty easy once you know how. Add your mask and select the mask in the layers studio. Now tap the channels studio and tap on the 3 dots to the right of the mask alpha layer. Select invert layer from the pop up menu. Return to mask layer and paint away with white brush to reveal what is covered by mask.

The Distortions category in the Filters Studio (accessed by tapping on the filter funnel icon to the right of the workspace) includes a Perspective filter.

Would be cool to have the same select X icon in the lower left as in Designer 😇

It would be very helpful to be able to import multiple photos at once. When I have projects with multiple photos, I create a new project in Affinity Photo, which is helpful, but I still have to import the photos one by one. This really slows down my workflow.

It is 2020 and the user still cannot drop all of the images into Photo at once (batch) and then work on them. Affinity, please fix this.

No, in my opinion. I would much rather they continue work on the DAM functionality (e.g, a LightRoom replacement) that they were working on at one time.
But for much more about the topic of video editing (including, as I recall, statements from Serif that it's not something they're considering right now, if you read enough):

Hi,
 
It seems that emoji’s are not support on the iPad version of the app when typing with the text tool. It shows an X in a box, instead of the selected emoji. This was a feature that I had expected when I purchased. Is it something that you can/will add in a future update? Thank you.

Any update on this? Would be so nice to be able to use Emoji in Photo!

Here we are nearly two years after the original post and it does not appear that there is support for emojis yet.  At least not on the iPad version of the software.
