smatthews30 Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 On my iPad, If I open a project and and modify it then do an export and save image, the changes don’t save. But If I exit the Affinity Photo or Designer app and reopen the project then export and save to file the new changes are saved. Quote
walt.farrell Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums. "Open a project" from where? More details on exactly what you're doing, please. 4 hours ago, smatthews30 said: export and save image, I am familiar with Export and with Save which are separate operations (and Save has multiple forms on iPad), but what is "export and save image", exactly? And where weren't the changes saved (in the Exported image, or the Saved project? And where did you Save to, and which flavor of Save did you do. Again, please provide the exact steps you took. Or possibly a screen recording to help us understand. smatthews30 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

Are you using the iPadOS 15.4 beta as that is a defect I can see as well. Apple are changing the ways apps access memory to give apps like Affinity greater access to the extra RAM on M1 iPad's so I suspect there is a problem with the export buffer only being written to once, requiring the app to be closed and restarted before the next export works. smatthews30 1 Quote Affinity Photo, Designer, Publisher 1.10 and 2.5 on macOS 15.3 Beta Sequoia on M1 Mac Mini 16GB 1TB Affinity Photo, Designer, Publisher 1.10 and 2.5 on Windows 10 Pro.

Staff DWright Posted March 15, 2022 Staff Posted March 15, 2022 We are aware of this issue caused by the iPadOS 15.4 update that was just release and it has been logged with our developers, as this is an Apple update issue hopefully they will release a hotfix shortly. smatthews30 and Paul Mudditt 2 Quote

It was in every iPadOS 15.4 beta version as well so I didn't bother reporting it expecting the release version to fix it. smatthews30 1 Quote Affinity Photo, Designer, Publisher 1.10 and 2.5 on macOS 15.3 Beta Sequoia on M1 Mac Mini 16GB 1TB Affinity Photo, Designer, Publisher 1.10 and 2.5 on Windows 10 Pro.

smatthews30 Posted March 16, 2022 Author Posted March 16, 2022 I am using the iPadOS 15.4 on a 12.9” fifth generation model. Details: Projects save fine, but when I open a project and make new modifications then want to export those changes. I open the Documents pop-down window and select EXPORT, at the export screen I can select what format PNG, JPEG, GIFF, etc…. after selecting the export type lets say JPEG, I then select the SHARE option in lower left of the screen, then select the SAVE IMAGE it will saves to my iPad photos. The image will save but it will not save any of the new modifications that I made, the only way to save the modified project outside of Affinity Photo or Designer is to close the app and reopen it, then the export save image will save the modified project to iPad photos. Thanks for the responses, this is my first time having an annoying issue. This sounds like a known issue in iPadOS 15.4 Quote

This sounds like a known issue in iPadOS 15.4 Yes that is the same problem I have reported, the Dev's are aware of it and a new version 1.10.5 is available in the app store today that hopefully fixes it. EDIT: Nope bug is still there in V1.10.5 but looks like an attempt has been made to fix it but occasionally it still fails. iPadOS 15.4 export bug Quote Affinity Photo, Designer, Publisher 1.10 and 2.5 on macOS 15.3 Beta Sequoia on M1 Mac Mini 16GB 1TB Affinity Photo, Designer, Publisher 1.10 and 2.5 on Windows 10 Pro.
