Sid007 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Any idea why one would be getting the distraction shown in the attached shot? Quote Sid007 iPad Pro 12.9”, iPad OS 13.2.3, Affinity Photo, ProCamera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sid007 Posted November 19, 2019 Author Share Posted November 19, 2019 Oops! I probably should add that I hadn’t seen (been aware of) this prior to my new iPad Pro 12.9 running iPadOS 3.2.2 .

Staff Callum Posted November 20, 2019 Staff Share Posted November 20, 2019 Hi Sid007, This is a feature of iOS I'm afraid as it is the line for the dock if you swipe up on the line your dock should appear.

Cecil Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 The white line must be for the latest iPad Pro, as I have 10.5” iPad Pro, iPadOS 13.2.3 update, no white line.

Thanks C Thanks, Callum. But, the same gesture (upward swipe) w/o the line is a long accepted way to invoke the bar. Doesn’t it defy logic that the wizards at Apple would even consider such a redundancy? Perhaps you see something here that I am missing. Thanx, again, Callum for the suggestion.

Staff Callum Posted November 20, 2019 Staff Share Posted November 20, 2019 I'm not sure to be honest all I know is the line appears constantly on my iPad not just in Affinity.

Sid007 Posted November 20, 2019 Author Share Posted November 20, 2019 Cecil, I was using the 10.5” iPad Pro, too, until it lost all its wifi capability. No annoying line for me either with that rig.

Sid007 Posted November 20, 2019 Author Share Posted November 20, 2019 A NOTE TO EVERYONE ELSE: Okay, folks, Callum, Cecil, and I would love to hear what YOUR take on this is so please step up to the plate and let us have it!

DM1 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 No white line here but if you are seeing on larger models in ALL apps it’s either iOS “feature” or if it performs no function, a faulty screen.

Sid007 Posted November 22, 2019 Author Share Posted November 22, 2019 DM1, thanx for the perspective. I went over to the Apple iPad Forum and learned from an apparently quite experienced fellow that the line is coded into systems that do not have a “Home” button, such as my new Pro 12.9. He claims that the line is there to indicate where to swipe up to open the home screen. I questioned that by pointing out that it didn’t make any difference, that an upward swipe from anywhere along the bottom opens the screen. The bottom line for me right now is to continue to seek the absolute answer to this question before I get stuck with a defective iPad.
