EDIT: Whoops. Mods, this belongs in the “Designer Bugs found on iPads” subforum. My apologies for posting in the wrong place! Hello! I’m running version 1.8.4.4 of Affinity Designer for iPad on iPadOS 13.6.1, and I’ve run into a pretty annoying new bug. I’ve been using the color sampler gesture within the brush tool in the Pixel persona ever since I first downloaded Designer for iPad about a year and a half ago, but recently it is not working as expected. I first noticed that the color I was getting wasn’t the color I intended to sample, but about halfway in between the color I intended to sample and the color I was previously using. This happens regardless of specific brush or settings.Then, I eventually noticed that whenever I held and dragged my finger to sample a color, I would leave a single tap’s worth of brush stroke behind in the spot where I lifted my finger. I suspect this unwanted brush stroke is interfering with the color sampling operation. I double checked to make sure the “Touch for Gestures Only” setting is enabled. It is, and otherwise working as expected. The dedicated eye dropper tool is also working normally. I’ve attached screenshots to demonstrate my problem. Help is very much appreciated! This is a huge part of my workflow and I’d love to have it working again.
