J1ggl Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 If a new file is imported into Designer by dragging over from a Mac, the file will not open. The filename is also changed to a string of random letters and digits, and even the thumbnail isn't visible. Whereas if the exact same file is imported from a local folder (e.g. "In My iPad"), all works normally. The problem occurs with .afdesign, .svg and .ai files. I haven't tested others. Specs: MacBook Air M1 + macOS 12.3, iPad Air (2019) + iPadOS 15.4 Affinity Design for iPad (1.10.21) See the screenshot below – the left file was dragged in, whereas the right one was opened normally from Files.

J1ggl Posted March 17, 2022 Author Share Posted March 17, 2022 I should also add that this issue only occurs when a new document is to be opened. If a file is dragged into an existing opened document merely as a new layer, it will load successfully (although, it will get renamed in the same manner).
