Thanks for responding Walt. I’m adding another screen grab. This one shows that flow, opacity, and accumulation are maxed out. The brush in question is a “skin” brush. The layer mode is normal and it’s opacity is at 100%. I’m asking in relation to the iPad version of v2; yet the issue is pervasive on the desktop version as well. I get that displays may show a color different that one sees “live”. What I don’t understand is how the same color on the same screen in the same document can differ. I can choose a color but when used it won’t match the color indicated in the studio. A skin brush in this example, but it actually doesn’t matter.

Hi; I’m wondering just why it is that when I select a color to use with brushes, whether using the color picker tool, or by option clicking with a brush; the color that is applied to the image doesn’t match the color shown as my selection. A screen grab of my setup is attached. You’ll see that a brush is chosen. All attributes are maxed out. The layer is in normal mode. Pressure is not being used, but the color on the canvas doesn’t match the color in the color studio.

Thanks, Dan C. I see that some of these work and some don’t. I’ll just have to keep checking.

What I’m finding is that many keyboard shortcuts that are fine on the desktop version don’t work at all on the iPad with Magic Keyboard. Some tool keys work, some don’t. Shortcuts to invert say, masks don’t work. Commands to bring up say, Curves, Levels, or to switch tool versions don’t work. Beats me as to why. Anyone know? M4 iPad Pro Magic Keyboard.

A restart does remedy things, though it happens with brush images, color picker…. Restarting every couple of minutes isn’t the best way to work.

Hello… New behaviour.. I’m finding that when executing a command or say, using the color picker, the image of that tool, or in one instance creating a new pixel layer; the image of that layer for example will freeze in position. It won’t respond to an undo command, nor does it disappear after the file is closed then after, reopened. The “icons” for lack of a better word carry over from one file to another. The pixel layer in the heron photo was created in a totally different file. These things don’t go away unless the iPad is restarted. Happens with both v1 and v2. I find as well that v2 is subject to frequent freezes, tools not working as expected. Not noticed these things before the 2.5.2 update. Anyone else finding these issues? iPad Pro M4. Apple keyboard.. v2.5.2. And 1.XX

I'm having a problem with the fill tool. Seems that 8-9 times out of 10 selecting the layer or mask, choosing a color, then attempting to fill the layer or mask does nothing. I'm trying to color a b&w photo and want to use several layers/groups to deal with skin, clothing etc. I'm following a Udemy tutorial step by step and it simply isn't working. In the recording I noticed that the tolerance was at 0. Even at 100% it still doesn't work. Same situation on iPad as well. At wit's end... Screen Recording 2024-06-07 at 9.20.07 PM.mov

Craziness. I realize this is very general, but…. Pencil works sometimes. Application repeatedly freezes. Tools intermittently don’t work(ex; fill, pencil, brushes). Keyboard shortcuts don’t work, to name a few things. Can’t create a selection, copy it and paste to a new layer. The command J doesn’t work either. I can’t imagine what’s happened to this app…. M4 iPad Pro, Pencil Pro. V2.5

Finding that aside from several other issues, the one in particular that’s a problem is that the fill tool doesn’t seem to be working. Tool is selected. Layer is selected. Color is selected. Tolerance set to 100%. Current layer and below is selected. Clicking in the image does nothing. No fill whatsoever. What if anything might I be doing wrong?

Thanks NotMyFault.

I’m using Affinty Photo v2 for iPad. I’m using (trying to use) a pixel layer; a gradient overlay to this layer. Beside nothing happening; the controls I’d expect to see to affect that gradient don’t show on the screen. As well, no means of altering color, blend mode, etc. Thanks for your reply…

I’m trying to create a layer effect: a gradient overlay to a layer. I can select that from the studio but no controls appear; no ability to select a color etc. What might I be doing wrong?

Thanks for your reply. I suppose that makes as much sense as anything else…. I’d wondered if it might also be that the tip of the pencil is so small. Yet the wide tip of a stylus doesn’t work either.

A relatively new user, I’m wondering why when using the wand/flood select tool, in V1.9 and V2, I’m not able to start a selection by touching/tapping with the pencil. Touching with fingers works fine but I’d think the pencil should work as well. Not able to adjust tolerance by dragging on screen as well. Am I doing something wrong?
