I made a little cheat sheet for personal reference. If anyone else would find it useful, here you go!

Thanks.

By the way, you could attach that .afdesign file here directly, which would make it easier for users to obtain

So I could! Too used to Discord yelling ‘too large’ at me, I guess. Thanks!

Strangechilde’s Affinity Tools Cheat Sheet.afdesign

I believe what is needed is a chart of the basic differences between transitioning from  the desktop version of Affinity and the iPad versions. These are functions such as, creating a new doc, cutting and pasting, saving and deleting docs, importing an image, etc. I have found that once this is known then using the tools, context menu, are relatively easy, much the same. Searching tutorials (although they are good) for basic functions such as these is much more difficult than actually using the tools and other panels.

Does such a basic introduction in the basic differences between the desktop and iPad versions exist? E.g., the iPad panels are not seen until one brings up a doc to edit, a non-intuitive feature that once known, is obvious. Things like this are not covered in the tutorials as far as I know. This would be very helpful for those transitioning from desktop to iPad.

PS: Knowing how to do the above without a keyboard is essential for the beginner.
