Toddmurphyart Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 Has anyone been able to import palettes to Designer on the iPad? I work with Montana brand spray paint and want to be able to import and/or their entire color palette. or do I have to use the eyedropper to import each color individually and name it individually? Also wondering if there is a way to rearrange the colors within the palette list view? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Callum Posted November 22, 2019 Staff Share Posted November 22, 2019 Hi Toddmurphyart, Welcome to the forums The only way to do this on iPad would be by colour picking each colour then adding them to swatches panel. On desktop however you can use create palette from document which I have done for you. You can find the palette attached here. You should be able to import it into swatches on your iPad. montana palettes.afpalette Quote Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP.

DM1 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 @Callum hi Callum, unfortunately iPad is still unable to import pallettes. The. Only way to get in in would be to add it as an afdesign file and save the pallette. Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

Gregoir Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 (edited) I know this is a very late answer, but I only began thinking about this yesterday. Make a blank document in the desktop version and import the palette as a document one. Save the document containing the palette as a template with an appropriate name based on the palette name. Open from template in the iPad version then alter the Document Setup to suit. Your palette is now available. Use "Place" to add images rather than "Open". I know its a workaround, but is much faster than adding colours to a palette manually. Edited June 28, 2020 by Gregoir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiskeyBelle Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 I KNOW this is sooooo late and this thread is old but what can we do to encourage Affinity to make this a functionality for the ipad? the add chord section needs to be added too. is there a "hey you need to add this" thread/forum? You'd think after all these years, it would be done by now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's 2022 and this was posted in 2019... was it an option in 2019? why was it removed if so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
