  1. Hello, I'm using Affinity Photo for iPad and considering the use of the Keyboard shortcuts.

    Should be very very useful to can change the Persona with a keyboard shortcut, in order to avoid to ping pong continually here and there on the iPad screen.

    Moreover should be really useful to access via keyboard to the Transform options

    Please, consider to add this feature in the next update!

    Thanks so much for the attention.

  2. Uh, I understand.

    I don't use Designer, but only Photo.

    Please, should you be willing to spent a little time (very little) in order to create a file in Photo with  lot of layers (A4 size or so) in order to test it quickly?

    Even a copy/past of a lot of photos/pics from the web in different layers, without waste time to draw or so, just to see how the app reacts.

    This would help me a lot, but I understand if you shouldn't have time.

     

  3. Hi to all!

    Today after a long wait (at least for me) should be released iPadOS and I'm wondering, before to risk the update, if the 1.7.2 build of Affinity Photo for iPad is safe from bugs or issues or if I can update to iPadOs safely.

    This because I'm just happy that the 1.7.2 build fixed the problems raised in the update process from 1.6 to 1.7, and I would like to avoid to back to have this app broken due to compatibility issues with the new iPadOS.

    Thanks to everyone who will be willing to reply. ^_^

    You can get access to latest beta this way: 

     

    Time ago I’ve tried to apply to the beta program but I never was contacted by Serif to get the code to access to the beta version through the TestFlight app.:(

    I would more than happy (and totally in my interest) to test the beta version, if only it would be possible.

  5. I can post a couple of videos: I use the same file (PSD format, 4800x4800 px, CMYK, 58 layers) on two iPads, one with Affinity Photo 1.7.1, the other with Affinity Photo 1.6.12.86. For this recordings I've turned on the "show touch" option in order to make clear when I touch the screen with fingers and the pen and when the strokes are shown on the screen.

    The file is 8bit. I've tried to convert it to 16bit as suggested by p_mac, but nothing changed, maybe even slower....

    Let's start with iPad Pro 10,5" 256gb, ram 4gb, Apple Pencil (1st generation), Affinity Photo build 1.6.12.86. We can notice that there are some little delays on the resolution refresh when I pan and zoom, but nothing so really bad. After some initial jamming with the pen, the strokes follow quite smoothly the pen tip on the screen.

     

     

    Let’s pass now on iPad Pro 2018 12,9” 1TB, ram6gb, Apple Pencil (2nd generation), Affinity Photo build 1.7.1. Here the resolution refresh panning and zooming is  slower, but what is really bad is the stroke delay, making the app unusable to work on this file. 

     

     

    I really hope these recordings could help to let the 1.7.1 build to back to work as well (or even better, if possible) as the 1.6.12.86.

    The only steps I am doing are

     

    1.  Create a new document with a size of 4000 x 4000 pixels

    2. Try to draw on the canvas using the pencil

    3. Notice how laggy it is

     

    I've tried using the iPads screen recorder,  but it doesn't seem to identify where the screen has been pressed (i.e with a red dot) which means it is hard to show how laggy it is.

    You can turn on the "show touches" (or so.. I'm Italian and I'm not sure how it's translated in the English version) option directly in the Affinity Photo preferences, General.

  7. A few days ago I've updated Affinity Photo for iPad to the 1.7.1 crossing fingers that the slowing resolution refresh and stroke delays would be fixed but... unfortunately they're still there! :-((((

    I can't figure out how an app that worked almost perfectly in the 1.6 version, it's now so corrupted to become almost unusable with some files that worked perfectly with 1.6.

    Please, if it's impossible to fix these issues, is there any way to back to the 1.6 version? It has the erase bug (that works also with finger touch even if settled only for pen), but at least I can use Affinity Photo to work again.

    So disappointed...

    A blank new document will create the issues if one sets the dimensions to say 16000 x 8000 pixels (I'm assuming this is not the minimum dimensions to experience lag problems)

    On a new document there is considerable lag to simple pencil drawings.

    On the previous versions of photo, there was no lag nor problems whatsoever with this size of document.

     

    I quote. At the beginning I thought it was a problem of the big file, but I've tried a blank new one and the problem is still there.
