[Affinity Photo - Importing RAW photos increases Noise levels significantly (iPadOS 13)]

Anyone find a cure for this?

[Panorama stitch not working]

Hi.  I’m having this issue.  7jpegs.  iPad Pro 12.9” 2nd generation.  iOS 13.1.2.   The fix mentioned by the OP worked to clear whatever the issue was.  
 

Thank you @MaxB

[Is there a GND?]

In Affinity every adjustment layer has a built-in mask, and you can control the application of the adjustment by painting on that mask. White makes the adjustment visible, black hides it.

I think the Affinity equivalent of Lightroom's GND would be applying a White to Black (or Black to White) gradient to the mask of an adjustment, oriented properly to get the effect you want. You can additionally simply paint on the mask to choose which areas of the photo the adjustment applies to.

(I don't use iPad, so I can't tell you how to do that.)

Thanks for your reply.  That is pretty much what I’ve been doing but I was watching a Creative Live tutorial on landscapes the other day and during the editing portion, the LR option of the GND seemed so much simpler than the steps I’ve been using to get there in Photo.  I’ve had the iPad version for a few years but haven’t really gotten too deeply into any of the features so I thought maybe I had missed it.  

[Is there a GND?]

Looking for something similar to (and as easy as) the GND feature that is in Lightroom?  Been through most of the available tutorials for the iPad and the desktop versions and can’t find what I’m looking for.  Also, can someone point me towards a good additional resource outside of the Photos tutorials for basic info like finding/using/saving presets, unsharp mask settings, denoise settings and using the fill layer options?

[File management question - selecting multiple files]

If you create a project folder (empty) then open that folder, you can drag and drop multiple files from camera roll etc into the open project folder. Maybe this helps for next time? Unfortunately, as MEB stated, once they are in AP you can only move one at a time.

 

Yes, for next time thanks!

Hi SquarePeg,

Welcome to Affinity Forums

If you are referring to the Welcome Screen inside Affinity Photo there's no way to move multiple files simultaneously to a folder. You have to long-press drag each one individually to the folder.

 

Ugh.  There goes my time at the gym, lol.  Thanks for the quick reply.  Hopefully selecting/moving multiple files on the Welcome Screen is something that is in the near future?  This would also help with deleting, saving edited files to iCloud and exporting multiple files to Flickr etc.

Hi.  I imported and edited a bunch of photos individually.  I now want to add all of them to a project folder.  How do I select multiple files to move them to the folder?  

 

TIA
