Affinity Photo does not work on extended display

[CarolT]

Hi! I have tried searching for the issue I am having both on the web and here in the Forum, plus looked at the pinned topics. However, I have been unable to find any info on my issue, and I am hoping someone can help me.

I have a gen 5 iPad Air and  24" 4K monitor. If I open AF on the iPad itself with Stage Manager enabled, and without the external display attached, it works fine. However, if I open AF on the iPad with the external display attached (and Stage Manager enabled), the window on the iPad looks fine, but I get the image on the external display, apparently as the Desktop; the App bar is hidden by the image from AF. Pls see attachments 'AF on iPad' and 'Image on external display with AF on iPad.' Very weird.

If I move AF from the iPad to the external display, I get the image with nothing from AF around it; pls see 'AF moved to external display' (image is cropped down the just include the AF window and the App bar). Then if I move AF back the iPad, it immediately crashes.

I am using v 2.5.2 of AF.

I appreciate any advice anyone has! Thx!

Wow. OK, thx! Maybe I missed that in the 'iPad Questions' list, ugh. And did not search for the right terms.

This is very disappointing, though, esp since the linked post was written over 1-1/2 years ago. I guess making the AF app fully work on the iPad is a low priority.

Thanks for your help, I appreciate it! 🙂
