How to export a layer or copy it to pasteboard


Recommended Posts

I spent a lot of time of time trying to get a selected area of my image out of Affinity Photo. 

With no luck.

 

It seems "copy" only works within Photo and is not compatible with the iOS pasteboard.

 

So, how do I export only part of my image? Either a selection or a layer?

 

Do I have to delete everything else first?

Apparently, this is an ugly hack.

foreword: shame Photo iPad cannot directly work with iOS clipboard, to either Paste/Place from IOS clipboard nor to Copy [selection] to iOS clipboard [as some other iPad apps copy/cut/paste to proprietary AND iOS-compatible formats].

 

SOLUTION... The current long route:

Document > Export

select output format

under Area: select Selection without/with background

[any other setting you want to change]

Share > Save image or Copy
