axisgrantedartllc Posted April 16, 2021 Posted April 16, 2021 I have Affinity Designer on the ipad. When exporting, under the Area tab it used to say “selection without background” and now it doesn’t. What has happened to that feature? How can I export without the background now?

Staff MEB Posted April 16, 2021 Staff Posted April 16, 2021 Hi @axisgrantedartllc, Welcome to Affinity Forums :)Selection without background is the same as the new Selection Only option. It exports the selected layer/object (it can be a group or a single object) without including any other object in the background to the background itself. A Guide to Learning Affinity Software

I attempted to save a project with the “Selection Only” and it worked perfect. I appreciate the response!
