  1. It will be more than helpful to add a brush cursor as on the desktop version for the iPad version! It has been requested many times and its still not implemented which is a pity. Thanx
  2. I really wonder why there is no proper way to select points in the Designer persona other than the rectangle. I wish we had a lasso tool that would allow me to quickly select points / lines freely, just like we can select pixels with the lasso tool over there. The rectangle is stiff and why I understand that I can add or remove dots from the selection with keystrokes, nothing beats the speed of drawing around just the points i need in one stroke. From a technical standpoint as I see it: The tool itself is already in the pixel persona - all it takes is an algorithm that works with designer / vector data to find all points inside the area. And it needs an icon / shortcut to activate it. This is needed for both, Desktop and iPad Versions, as it would speed up certain workflows immensely. Especially when using Tablets on Desktop or the Apple Pencil.
  3. Hello, I noticed that the top rule for placing horizontal guides was not displayed when Stage Manager was activated. Simply disabling Stage Manager makes the rule reappear. I hope this can help you improve your software.
  4. I had just renamed a couple of my afdesign files and then went to save them. I saved the 2nd and then realised the first renamed file was : showing as blank when opened showing 'o items' instead of a file size only giving me the option to rename it or close it - the save options have gone. it's been duplicated so I have 2 of these useless empty files. I don't think they have been 'converted' to actual projects as they have a cross at the top left corner and my other projects don't have that option. - Edit - I've just realised an empty project will display with a cross The file that's gone wrong is called 'Scene bournemouth beach' - images attached Affinity has crashed a few times lately and I do have rather a lot of files sitting on my iPad and maybe that's the cause.. Does anyone know if my file can be retrieved from somewhere?
  5. I’m having some difficulties with touch gestures on iPad, but I’m not sure if it’s me, or a bug, or if the gestures are changing? Basically, a one-finger touch modifier seems to no longer work. In the video below, a one-finger touch should constrain the proportions of the square, instead, it takes two fingers (plus there’s that weird resizing glitch that happens sometimes). The odd thing is, sometimes one finger will work, or sometimes two fingers doesn’t work either, but a three-finger modifier works. Sometimes none of them work at all, it’s really inconsistent. With the Pen Tool, when I use a one-finger modifier, I can see the point change to a cusp for a second, then revert back. A two-finger touch modifier will consistently change a smooth point to a cusp, but it won’t constrain the control handles to 45 degrees. However, a three-finger modifier will now both constrain the control handles, and edit the nodes. Am I doing something incorrectly? Is there some setting I may have accidentally changed? Or is this a bug? I don’t use a screen protector, and I’ve cleaned any smudges off of my iPad screen, so I don’t think there’s anything interfering with the touchscreen responsiveness. Plus, other touch gestures, like undo, work perfectly. I’ve also tried force-closing the app, restarting my iPad and turning off Hover, the results are the same. The video is version 2.0.4, but this also happens in the Beta (1736). M2 iPad Pro 12.9”, 256GB, iPadOS 16.4 IMG_6950.MOV
  6. I recently started using Affinity Designer 2 on my iPad Pro and was a bit baffled that common keyboard shortcuts are absent. When I place my cursor between two letters and press Option + Right Arrow, it jumps to the end of the line of text rather than increasing the kerning. Cmd + Right and Ctrl + Right do the exact same thing, so I don’t see a compelling reason why Option + Right Arrow wouldn’t be available for use as a kerning shortcut instead. I recognize that the iPad interface is (necessarily) optimized for touch, and I think it’s done quite well for that purpose. However, kerning is buried fairly deep in the menu, and the traditional Option + Arrow shortcuts would be a major convenience for those of us using keyboard and mouse on iOS. It doesn’t look like enabling them would interfere with any other functionality, so please consider doing so! I would add that there are a number of other shortcuts in the same boat which I think could be added without causing issues, such as Cmd + and Cmd - to zoom, or Esc to back out of editing a text object.

  10. This started off life as a quick colour study for an oil painting I’ve been planning and wasn’t meant to be anything more, but - as usual - I started getting obsessed with adding the detail, and so here we are. I’ll still work on the painting, but I’m really happy with the vector version so thought I’d share. Hope you like her!
  11. I almost always use the same export settings and it’s getting a bit annoying to have to set them up every time. Especially when I export the same photo multiple times (because I expose different layers per export). Is there a way to make the app remember my last used settings? Or something similar?
  12. there shall be a way to save .afdesign files more comfortable then ONE BY ONE isn’t it? SOLUTION: for instance: I would create a Project Folder to place all my completed artwork and let AD store ALL content to the place i select AT ONCE, for instance iCloud. this would be a great add on!
  13. any hint how we can save or backup all .afdesign files at once? it’s veeery time consuming to save every single file…. alternativ: WHERE on iPad are our works saved/stored? as when i close a document it will be stored automatically! thx for every hint 🙏

  17. Is there a longtime iPad user who can recall the minimum requirements of iPad on AD v1.x? What are the earliest supported generations iPads. I have the universal upgrade, so we could try iPAD if we can get a working combination on those vintage models. I have read https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/168445-what-are-the-recommended-system-specifications-for-affinity-v2-apps/My reason for this unusual request: we have an autistic child and want to see how he will respond to drawing on an old iPad with AD, as a therapy.
  18. On iPad in Affinity Designer 2, even when I have the main Snapping button toggled off, if the Force Pixel Alignment toggle is on it will snap to pixels when trying to move objects on the canvas. I have to go into the Snapping Options and manually uncheck the Force Pixel Alignment toggle and only then will it stop snapping to pixels. I would think that toggling Snapping on or off should disable ALL of the options under Snapping?

  22. Hi, On Designer for iPad, the cmd+D shortcut does not work with vector items, however it works just fine on the desktop version. I tried to change The keyboard shortcut to something else, but the function just doesn’t seem to work. Also a trackpad tap outside the selection does not work either. Is it possible to make these basic functions work on the iPad version? I know an iPad is an iPad for a reason, but I do not necessarily want to touch the screen just to deselect something. The function works just fine in the pixel persona btw.
  23. We are pleased to announce version 1.10.6/7/8 updates for the Affinity Suite on all platforms. Affinity Designer, Affinity Photo and Affinity Publisher (on macOS, Windows, and iOS) had all recently been affected by recent operating system releases such as the launch of macOS Ventura, iOS 16 and Windows 10 and 11 updates. We have mitigated some of these in the 1.10.6 patches of all applications on all platforms. The changes fix/avoid the problems introduced by operating system changes thus returning earlier functionality. If you are using Windows 10 or 11, macOS Ventura (13.x) or iOS 16 then we recommend installing these updates. Other supported operating systems can install the update without issue, but they have no specific advantages/fixes over 1.10.5 for your OS. If you are on macOS Sonoma, the the 1.10.8 patch has a specific fix we would recommend you get 1.10.8 (on macOS only) is a single fix patch to address this Light UI issue on Sonoma UPDATING TO THIS VERSION (for existing V1 customers) Updates on macOS for Affinity Store Purchases The software version can be seen on the splash screen and the About dialog (in application menu, for example Affinity Photo > About...).

  24. Hi there. I have been using the pen tool on Affinity Photo for Mac for a long time and often use the ability to create tapered lines using the pen tool. I cannot see anywhere on the ipad version where I can change the line thicknesses over distance. Am I missing something? Also when I import a file that does have varying vector stroke thicknesses, every shape and line I create in the ipad app afterwards has the exact same line profile which I am powerless to change. Is this a glitch? Or is there a section were I can change this in app? Please help!
  25. Please let all the Affinity iPad apps take advantage of the external monitor support.
