Missing functions on Aff. Ipad


Recommended Posts

First I had bought Aff. Design for Win. version, and than Aff. Design for Ipad version and I noticed a lot of differences in functionality.

A lot of functions are missing and there is no occasionaly updates for Ipad version of Aff. Designer.

So there are some very important ones, f.i. ruler or draw behind line function or you don't have an option to make swatces out of internet or any other photograph and many other functions are missing.

I have also lessons for windows and I might that I just don't know how to find all these functions on Ipad version.

Thank you for support

You're right that some desktop functions are missing from the iPad versions. I have not seen a list of all of them.

If you have specific questions about specific tutorials you could ask them. If the tutorials are publicly available it would be helpful to give the URL and the timecode where you need help. But in general I would suggest using tutorials prepared for the iPad until you have learned its functions. Once you are familiar with the application it will be easier to figure out how to transfer techniques from the desktop to the iPad.

Someone made a “Tool reference for iPad users” which for new users should be of great help:

Also, if you push the bottom right corner “?” sign inside an Affinity document you get an overview for all major functions:
