Howdy,
Apologies if this is addressed elsewhere on this forum already, but I wasn't able to find anything. My issue is this:
I purchased the "Grave Etcher Brush Pack" from the Affinity Store to use with Affinity Designer for the iPad, but I can't figure out how to install it (using the published instructions for how to install brushes).
From within the app I click on the Vector Persona and then from the Brushes Studio I choose "Import Brushes..." from the hamburger button.
From what I can tell, Designer opens up a version of Apple's "Files" application, from which I navigate to where I have the .afbrushes file stored (I've tried storing in various locations in Files, including Google Drive and "On My iPad). The file appears but without any "afbrushes" extension. The icon and listing for the file appears grey/gray-colo(u)red, as if Affinity doesn't recognize the file as a legitimate brushes file. I can poke, pinch, and swipe at the brushes file as much as I want, but Affinity Designer + the Files dialog refuse to consume the file.
I've tried with other community-created .afbrushes files and get exactly the same behavior.
So... how can I import an .afbrushes file into Affinity Designer for the iPad? Any information that I can provide to provide clues as to what is happening?
Thanks!
Regards,
Jim
So we're now at version 1.7.3 of Affinity Designer and there's been an update to the iPad operating system (iPad OS) and there still seems to be no way to actually use brushes in Affinity Designer on the iPad. By what right is Affinity still selling products on their store that can't actually be used?
