  1. Thanks Nathan, My setup: Affinity Photo v2 for iPad (version 2.0.4 - v326) Ipad Pro 12.9inch 6th generation M2 chip iPadOS 16.2 (btw: i'm installing iPadOS 16.3.1 today)
  2. Sad and glad i'm not the only one But restarting the app really helped, at least we dont need to reinstall it.
  3. Hi Lee, same issue is happing on my Affinity Photo v2 for iPad (version 2.0.4 - v326) Ipad Pro 12.9inch 6th generation M2 chip iPadOS 16.2 Not sure how to reproduce it, BUT to fix the issue, just quit the app and reopen it. By the way, these noises aren't only on the selection display, but the actual brush gets all noisy. So basically, unusable (need to restart the app). See here:
  4. Not sure if this is some weird settings i've enabled or something else. But a few days ago all my brushes are showing these annoying noises. Anyone else having this issue? Using: Affinity Photo v2 iPad (v326)
  5. How do i rename a file from the homescreen in Photo v2 on iPad? on v1 we had the burger (=) to delete, save and rename files. thanks
  6. @Stepan Pazderka - i'm also pretty confused on the file handling of affinity. This should be primary focus for the next version. How is everyone else dealing with it? Here's my related topic:
  7. Quick Background: I have Affinity Photo for both iPad and Mac and use is since 2017 (on and off as hobby). My main use is on the iPad and since 2019 i've started making big files (10.000px vs 7.000px) and many layers, some files are 1GB. I've had many crashing issues in the last 4 months (with older Affinifity Photo versions, then i got tired and stopped using it) where i lost my lastest editing since it wasn't automatically saving the file on the iCloud Drive (had set it to 'Save on iCloud' and even sometimes i clicked 'save' it didn't save the file on iCloud, because after crashing i saw i lost 30min, 1h work. I've resolved it idiotically by doing 'Save a Copy' into iCloud by every major editing i did (and this with 500, 700MB files isn't ideal). So I've just deleted Affinity Photo from my Mac and iPad, also manually deleted the 'Affinity Photo' from both iCloud Drive & iPad Drive folders and also deleted the Backup Folder. Now i'm ready to start afresh and would love to hear how you deal with files and folders... specially people dealing with big files on the iPad: Where do you save your files: iPad or iCloud Drive directly? Do you use the 'Affinity Photo' folder or some external iCloud/iPad Folder? If I open a file from iCloud, anytime i click Save, will it save it over this file? or into the 'Affinity Photo' folder in the iPad or iCloud? i know it creates these folders once i've installed Affinity. How many projects/files do you have on your iPad? Once you finish an artwork, do you save it on iCloud/iPad/USB and then 'close' the file to cleanup Affinity? I've had 30+ projects open, so not sure if this was also helping to crash Affinity. thanks
  8. Hi, many times i want to resize a layer from the center, using the apple pencil (not the Transform Tools settings). But Affinity always uses the opposite end and anchor point (right?). Anyway to change this? As you can see on the video below, even if i change the anchor point from the Photo > Transform Studio from the side to the center, it doesn't resize it from the center when i'm using the Pencil/Finger. Using version: AP iOS version 1.6.9.81 on the iPad Pro
  9. +1 on more shortcuts for Affinity Photo on the iPad. Would be extremely useful to use Siri voice commands with the shorcut app for things like: "New Affinity File" - Create a new file with specific size (ex: 3000 x 4000px at 300dpi) "Backup layer" > Duplicates current layer (and disables the original layer) [for backup purposes] "Import image" > Grabs the image from safari (it would be a http://.....jpg file), and opens it as a new layer in the currently open Affinity photo project
  10. Hi @stokerg, i did the exact same thing as you described again just now, but i doesn't show up on my other devices, just on the iPad. And i'm sure iCloud is ok, because i just created another folder afterwards via iPad files app, and i immediately appears on my Mac's iCloud folder. So the Affinity Photo (with icon) folder is the only folder that just appears on the iPad, all my other files and folders are synced. I can see two possible differences between our environments: Affinity's iPad version: i'm using 1.6.7.76 (and not any new beta version) I don't have Affinity for Mac, just the iPad version. I imagine your icloud/apple id has both iPad & MacOS. Hi @DM1, i definitely advice saving to iCloud for constant backup if you have space.
  11. Ok, problem continues... Affinity 1.6.7.76 I deleted Affinity Photo from my iPad It didn't delete the iCloud folder "Affinity Photo" (that has the icon on the folder) Manually deleted the iCloud folder "Affinity Photo" Double checked that i was logged with the same apple id on all iCloud's Turned iPad off & on, just to be sure Resinstalled Affinity on the iPad In Settings (cog/wheel on Affinity's home screen) > changed the Save Location from "On my iPad" to "iCloud Drive" "Import from Cloud" to open a file from another iCloud folder Closed the file, to go to homescreen, clicked the hamburger icon on the file > "Save" It showed: saving ... to iCloud Drive Checking iPad's iCloud Files app, now it created again an 'official' Affinity Photo folder (the one with the logo), with 1 item. Created via the iPad files app, another folder called "TEST" just to see if it will appear on my laptop/iCloud folder & iPhone/Files app. The 'official' Affinity Photo folder does NOT appear in my laptop/iPhone. The "TEST" folder appears. Please... Can someone double check if this 'official' Affinity Photo folder is really showing on your macOS/iCloud folder and/or on your iPhone Files app???
  12. Hi @stokerg , thanks for helping out! So its an issue only for my account... i forgot to mention before that i was an Affinity Photo iPad beta tester for a while, and some months ago i removed myself from the beta via TestFlight. I think this iCloud folder saving feature came while i was beta testing. I'm logged into the same iCloud everywhere. I just created a new folder in iPad's Files, it appeared on my iPhone's files. I copied all 11 files from this hidden official Affinity Photo folder into this new folder, now they appear on my iCloud everywhere But the official folder is still hidden, shows only on iPad. I think my best option is: export all files into some proper iCloud folder delete Affinity from the iPad reinstall check if the official Affinity folder appears on all iCloud devices move the files to this folder. Maybe it will also fix this weird bug that happened on one of my latest files.
  13. I'm trying to understand the Affinity Photo iCloud Drive setup... I've set to save all my files on iCloud Drive from Affinity Photo and its working fine, but... The Affinity Photo folder appears only on the Files app in my iPad; Its hidden and i can't access it on my iPhone (Files app), Laptop (iCloud folder) and even online (icloud.com)... the "Affinity Photo" folder is missing. So... if I lose my iPad... its gone? until i buy a new iPad? right? I guess it must be a hidden folder for some reason (so i don't mess the files up?) I'm currently leaving my finished and unfinished files in the iPad's iCloud Drive / Affinity Photo Folder. But since this folder is hidden everywhere, i can't call this a proper backup, since i need an iPad to access it. BTW: I move my artworks into an external USB HB (with Backblaze backup) only once a year (in december) in a very arduous process that i know i have to improve. I used to work with Pixelmator, which i have for iPad, iPhone and MacOS, and its iCloud Folder is synced on all my devices. My options/questions: 1) Isn't there a way to unhide this folder to actually be a shared iCloud folder? 2) Or an option to always save new files into another iCloud folder that i've created (and is shared everywhere)? On the screenshot's below you can see i've already created an AffinityPhotoShared folder, but just exported some files, not sure how to best proceed here... 3) If I buy the Affinity for MacOS app, the Affinity Photo iCloud folder on MacOS would be the same / shared? So my files would appear there (guess it could/should be different... or have an option to be the same shared folder for macOS and iPad) Screenshots: a) iPad Files: showing the Affinity Photo folder (with the icon and 11 items) b) Laptop iCloud drive, even showing the 'hidden folders' (CMD+SHIFT+.) it doesn't show AP's folder: Thanks a lot!
