Thorworx Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I think this has been requested, but I couldn't find any dev responses... can anyone point me to a thread? I use Pages (iWork 09) for a client's magazine, and part of my current workflow includes dragging and dropping from Photoshop/Illustrator into Pages. Illustrator dragging and dropping includes transparency. Photoshop totally fails at transparency whether drag n drop or copy paste. I was absolutely thrilled when I discovered that AD/AP copy and paste works beautifully (including transparency - brilliant use of pdf for this, guys!). Slightly better drag and drop support from Affinity products to other apps would be icing on the already delicious cake. Certainly not a MUST HAVE feature - but would be nice. Of course dragging and dropping within the Affinity products and especially between Affinity documents would be much appreciated and probably more important to have first. This, I would consider a "must have". Thanx for your consideration... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted October 10, 2015 Staff Share Posted October 10, 2015 Hi Thorworx, Thanks for your feedback and Welcome to Affinity Forums :) You can already drag and drop layers/objects between documents if you change the app to Separated Mode (Windows ▸ Separated Mode). Although not exactly the same, you can also send a document from Photo to Designer and vice versa going to File ▸ Edit in Photo/Designer...

Drag and drop between documents does not work for me - I am in separated mode. :( In both programs, dragging a layer simply moves it out of view, and the receiving document does not accept the drop. "Edit in Photo/Designer" always seems to be greyed out in my File menus (both apps). :( The same behaviour and result in both betas, as well. I'm running Mac OS X 10.7.5 - I can't imagine that would be the cause of this, it it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
