auto group/child layers in tutorial ( ver 1.7.X )


Recommended Posts

Hello Group

I have started the Affinity iPad tutorial which is for 1.6.9, currently running 1.7.X on my iPad ( OS 13.X ), so I have the problem of after I select a layer and move that layer to change the order it seems to auto group or make a one the child ( nested? ) of the one I drag over or below? So is this technique as a new user or is there a preference to turn off that is on by default? Using a apple pencil for selecting everything currently, should I be using "finger" for this?

I did try and search the iPad tutorial forum so if this has been addressed, kindly point me to the answer.

We have this tutorial available showing how layers can be moved on the Layers studio within the iPad version of Affinity Photo. It's a case of watching for where the blue highlight line is, if all the width of the layers studio this means the layer will be placed there, if halfway it will be moved into the other.

Thanks "Lee D"

That particular tutorial is much better than the one in the begging sequence of iPad tutorials which left my confused about how undo my accidental grouping of layers, I will be practicing this as I find it curiously difficult to do on my iPad.

 

If you can where should I have posted this question, as I assume that I put it in the wrong forum.
