ronnyb Posted December 27, 2024 Posted December 27, 2024 Is there a way to swap After/Before so it's Before/After like on the desktop version? markw and Patrick Connor 2 Quote 2021 16” Macbook Pro w/ M1 Max 10c cpu /24c gpu, 32 GB RAM, 1TB SSD, macOS Sequoia 15.1 2018 11" iPad Pro w/ A12X cpu/gpu, 256 GB, iPadOS 18.1
Staff Pauls Posted December 27, 2024 Staff Posted December 27, 2024 Which desktop version are you seeing the Before/After - the ones I've checked are After/Before Quote
Alfred Posted December 27, 2024 Posted December 27, 2024 After/Before is alphabetical, but Before/After seems more logical to me (perhaps not so for users of RTL languages, but the Affinity apps don’t currently cater for those anyway). ronnyb 1 Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.5.1 (iPad 7th gen)

Yes more logical obviously, but my point is that the controls need to be NEXT TO the AFTER preview so as you go back and forth between adjusting and previewing, you don’t have to look to opposite side of the screen. From a UI/UX perspective, that’s retarded. Kinda like scratching your right ear with your left foot…something not even the Affinity Cat would do This is one of MANY such “choices” made by whoever is in charge of UI/UX in Affinity, which IMO is among the weakest and least usable parts of an otherwise powerful suite of apps. That and fixing 7+ year-old bugs, of course, which Affinity seem to have a phobia of….
