Is there a way to swap After/Before so it's Before/After like on the desktop version?

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).

Which desktop version are you seeing the Before/After - the ones I've checked are After/Before

Latest macOS (and previous I believe) have a Swap before/after button on the toolbar…

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….
