Thanks you for your input Feste! Grazie per il tuo contributo Feste!

I'm looking for input building a library of texture styles that are easy to apply to your design. And that don't make the files size too big. So I'm using small tiling (repeating) bitmap fills. There are 2 ways to build and apply the style library, can you tell me which you prefer? I recorded a video to show you the difference: https://vimeo.com/513749138. What do you think?

Thanks sean! (Note that my affected brushes were installed using the My Account window)

Hi, in Vector persona, when I try to edit one of the vector brushes (freshly downloaded using the new dialog), I see an empty edit menu overlayed on the brush. Screenshot attached. I’m on designer 1.9.3 on IPadOS 13.7 using iPadPro (original) 12.9” in Dark mode. thanks for checking! sander

Hi there! I love designing with repeating patterns. Now I found a good workflow to design and apply repeating patterns in AD. I recorded a tutorial that shows you how to design them, build a style library and apply patterns. They blend nicely with color fills using blend modes. The pattern and the color fill are in one shape, so no duplicates! --> https://vimeo.com/443692483 If you prefer the short explanation: I design vector patterns in a separate document using symbols to get the tiling right, export as bitmaps, use bitmap fills to build up a Style Library and apply those in drawings on iPad and desktop.

Still no Affinity sub brushes editor on iPad almost half a year after launch of this feature?

Sorry, I ment 12.3! Problem remains and has been confirmed by many.

I can't import .afstyles from DropBox or iCloud in Designer 1.7.2. Files are greyed out. This seams to happen when you don't have Affinity Photo installed.

I also can't import .afstyles from DropBox or iCloud in Designer 1.7.2. Files are greyed out like Chris says.

.Afstyles file are not accepted with airdrop (no associated app found) and can't be imported using the styles window (tested DropBox and iCloud) (iOS 10.3, Designer 1.7.2). Tested in pixel and vector persona's. --> I'm pretty sure this happens only when you don't have Affinity Photo installed on iPad, something is wrong with file type associations on Designer. --> Need a fix for this!

I'm still having this issue: Designer 1.7.2 on iOS 10.3 can't import an .afstyles file from DropBox or iCloud. These files have a standard icon, not the purple one. File is greyed out and can't be selected when choosing "import styles" from the Styles hamburger menu. --> I'm pretty sure this happens only when you don't have Affinity Photo installed on iPad, something is wrong with file type associations on Designer.

I'd like to upvote this feature: automatic 2-way cloud sync between iPad and desktop would be great. Amazing mobile app btw. I'm switching from the "Graphic" app, but Designer on iPad is next level.
