The number one source of problems is not making sure the correct layer is selected when using the tools. If you have problems try selecting a different layer and try again. By selecting a different layer, it does not mean simply the tick box but making sure the layer is ‘highlighted’ and try again. Also as DM1 states, make sure you watch as many as possible of James Ritson tutorials which will help you overcome the significant learning curve that newbies to AP are faced with.

Mind boggling how this works !! Very impressed!

Sorry missed that you were using AD, can’t think how to do that in AD but AP is inexpensive too.

I’d suggest ripple filter or use the equations filter. Search on this site for ideas https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/80085-distort-glassfrost/&tab=comments#comment-429810

When creating a new document change to mm and create a custom size work page then units will be set to mm in your work. For ease of use just create copies of your favourite document sizes on your home page then simply duplicate before use.

It’s fixed in yesterday’s update to the shortcut app !! Hurrah

Confirmed as a problem on AD and AP. I have had some luck however if you only adjust the start angle and never touch the end angle.

Sounds like you should start by creating a new document large enough to contain what you are trying to do. Then use shapes to mask each photo you place inside the document..

Select All is also available.

This article just published might help, but the answer is yes you can. https://affinityspotlight.com/article/how-to-switch-seamlessly-between-affinity-on-desktop-and-ipad/?fbclid=IwAR3romqYQRk3atlMNl7Zl22rL_F5lmoTsE5TqkbRWyIIKwCN0CjdPwe5cEE

I haven’t tried mechanical engineering drawing but did follow a civil engineering tutorial for making floor plans. Can’t find the link at the moment but there are plenty of tutorials on YouTube.

I can import direct into the App via preferences from a iCloud files shared folder from my Mac but I would warn against bringing so many fonts in as I’m pretty sure that will have a big performance impact. Be selective. BF718B19-12AC-4F44-BCB9-E4AD2285360B.MP4

Thanks, so that’s a yes you know they’re missing. Thanks for the welcome but actually I’ve been here for a while and yes that’s what I said was the work around.

Can a Serif engineer please just check that in pixel persona in Affinity Designer for iPad that the “Basic” brush set is available? This is after a question on the Affinity Photo and Designer for iPad Facebook group from a member who reported they were missing which does appear to be the case. I know on desktop they are available in both vector and pixel persona but on the iPad I think might have been forgotten on the iPad build. As a work around for those that have AP and AD, exporting the Basic brush set from AP and importing into AD pixel persona corrects the oversight.
