kporcaro Posted November 9, 2022 Posted November 9, 2022 (edited) Just downloaded Affinity 2.0 onto my 11” 2018 iPad Pro. Similar to the setting on the Retina Macs, iPadOS 16 allows iPad to change the screen Display Zoom. There are two settings: Default, and More Space—elements are a little smaller, and the screen acts like a higher resolution display. In Affinity 2.0, if the iPad Display Zoom is set to “More Space”, edges of shapes and fonts are jagged instead of smooth. In other contexts I would say this looks like anti-aliasing isn’t working, but I don’t know enough about the technical pieces here to say that. This bug doesn’t occur in Affinity Designer 1.x on iPad. I’ve also noticed this on Publisher Steps to Reproduce: In iPad Settings -> Display & Brightness -> Display Zoom. Change to “More Space” Designer 2.x (More Space) Designer 1.x (More Space) Designer 2.x (Normal) Edited November 9, 2022 by Keith Porcaro Typo correction Surgio' and Skippy 2 Quote
Hammond Posted November 10, 2022 Posted November 10, 2022 This issue also occurs in Larger Text mode, however it manifests as a miscalculation of the art board size as well as jagged lines. Quote
Hastam Posted November 10, 2022 Posted November 10, 2022 Got the same issue on iPad Air 5th 2022, iPadOS 16.1.1 Quote
Schnak Posted November 10, 2022 Posted November 10, 2022 Same issue for me… (iPad Air 5th 2022, iPadOS 16.1.1) The rendering is horrible in "More Space" mode Quote
Sean2019 Posted November 10, 2022 Posted November 10, 2022 Same issue on my newly acquired 2022 iPad Pro 12.9” M2 Quote
Hastam Posted November 10, 2022 Posted November 10, 2022 Also it seems to be a general issue and not the one exclusive to Designer, as Photo behaves in exactly same way. Quote
Surgio' Posted November 12, 2022 Posted November 12, 2022 Same, also scrolling around at board is not smooth. 12.9” M1. Worked fine on version 1 Quote
Skippy Posted November 13, 2022 Posted November 13, 2022 I thought I was going crazy, wondering why everything was all edgy when zoomed in. Having the same issue on a iPad 11" M1 with "More Space" turned on in the display settings. Quote
Mooxo Posted November 15, 2022 Posted November 15, 2022 This also applies to Publisher - exactly the same issue on m2 iPad pro. Quote
