How do I access Photo from Designer to edit an open document on iPad

[LionelD]

I’m probably missing something, but I can’t find a way to transfer a document that is open in Designer on iPad into Photo for further editing.  I can do this on the MacBook, but can’t find the corresponding menu items on the iPad.

Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?

I tried searching the forum, but did not find an answer....

Regards

Thanks.  I really hope the difference between the iPad and desktop apps goes away soon.

Pretty sure it is an IOS,IPadOS limitation due to the extra protection the iPad provides over a MAC or a PC. There is another way however, on the Affinity Photo home screen press your project until it wiggles, swipe up from the bottom of the screen with a finger on your other hand and open Affinity Designer then drop the project on the Designer home screen and visa versa. However saving the project file to a iCloud location is the best method as then you can freely switch to editing on your MAC or iPad in either program.

Paul, thanks for the information.

It may well be an iPadOS/iOS limitation, and I was not aware of the technique you describe, very useful as usual.

Thanks again.
