Aammppaa Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Perhaps I misunderstood, but isn't it Select > Invert Pixel Selection?

Winoo1 Posted November 18, 2022 Author Share Posted November 18, 2022 i have no such option on my Ipad. There are options: Feather Selection, Grow/Shrink selection, Smooth Selection and Outline selection. Nothing more. Aammppaa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cjwebdesign Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 I was just about to report this bug as well. there is no ui button or option to invert pixel selection in the pixel persona. You can only use a hardware keyboard shortcut of cmd+shift+i. Also when you use the keyboard shortcut the selection ants does not change to indicate the inverse. I notice the ui element is present in affinity photo 2 under the selection icon but yet affinity designer 2 has very limited options. saraartist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry…for Designer, switch Personas…must be how they opted to combine things perhaps. For Designer always the simple Adjustment though. Make Selection by switching to Pixel Persona….use Tools, etc. Switch back to Designer….use Adjustments. walt.farrell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cjwebdesign Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 This is not helpful. This feature was available in designer 1 as a long one finger press. You shouldn’t have to go through all that for a simple thing as inverse selection. It is also available if you have a hardware keyboard which you shouldn’t need for an iPad. All features must be accessible for the iPad without kb attachment. This is clearly an omission and should not be defended with work arounds. Also the selection ants like I stated when using a kb using cmd+shift+I does not change which is also a bug. 2 hours ago, Winoo1 said: well, i do not have hardware keyboard, so.....crucial option, and it's not there... i was on your side in reporting the bug not saying get a kb. That would be ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And knowing workarounds is helpful, as it gives us a way to perform the function while we wait for the proper solution. You're right, it should be fixed.

Serif staff have not had time to get to this report yet, but they will. This is not even a work around, i don’t see an inverse selection, I see weird colour being inverted in the selection he made so how does this help. This is for reporting a bug and his entry diminishes the fact we are reporting a bug and that I’m not using the app the right way. The feature needs to be there just like affinity 1. Period.

walt.farrell Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 I agreed it should be fixed. Serif is busy, but they will get here. I also agree that the workaround isn't. It uses an Invert adjustment, which is not the same thing as inverting the pixel selection. saraartist 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, but that is also not the "invert pixel selection" function. The function we're looking for is the one where, if you have a set of pixels selected (surrounded by marching ants), you invert the selection so that everything outside the marching ants becomes selected.

Ahhhh my bad. Thought it was merely trying to make selection to invert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wickster Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 I hope you don't mind me posting this on the bugs forum to bring more attention to it. Cause this should definitely be filed as a bug. I mean sure it could be a missing feature, but something as crucial as "Invert Selection" should not be missing in the app. Specially when it's a part of the basic selection tool sets and was there in V1 as well. saraartist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
