How do you shift select on the iPad?

[eobet]

I'm trying to select two nodes on an object, but holding down a finger while selecing the second node (a guesture approaching industry standard) doesn't seem to work.

Also, Affinity Photo on the desktop has really great "add", "subtract", "new" selection mode toggles, but I see none of that in Affinity Designer on the iPad.

 

EDIT: Oh... I need to hold down my finger and wait until some weird, blue circle under it has finished animating?

@eobetYou can drag select the nodes.

But what if there is a node in between that box that I don't want to select?

You need a shift click selection then, and the delay Affinity forces upon users really hampers that workflow.

Holding down a finger, for however long period of time, while tapping around with the corner tool does NOT allow you to select more than one node.

You need to hold down two fingers, not just one, in the current build of the app.

Super weird... today, it works with holding down one finger... yesterday, it did not.

Still, the fact that you need to wait for some blue circle to finish animating is still very annoying.

Blue circle?Do you have “show touches” turned on under preferences?
