Exporting projects (not individual files), transparency missing from import, name layers quicker

[Affinity iPad Student]

Some design oversights OR my lack of finding out how to do it right:

 

ICLOUD FILES INDIVIDUALLY HAVING TO BE EXPORTED/IMPORTED:

• Sent files to the cloud (Unfortunately, wasn't able to send the whole project, had to do it, layer by layer) hope they fix this. Individual is slow, grueling process when a ton of layers or tons of projects in one project folder. Let me shoot that one project folder up with all its contents within contained and intact. 

 

 

TRANSPARENCY:

• Modified layers, once sent to the cloud, come back unmodified, when imported back in. That means, if someone was holding up the "everything is ok" sign with their fingers, I have to go back in there and create that transparency opening within his fingers that creates the "circle" in the ok (thumb and pointing finger), so it can layer appropriately when placed atop another layer and no "white background" sticking out of his ok sign, when he's in a forest.  Imagine, have shit ton of these to do. You have to go back in and redo them. 

 

Please fix these two up top or show me the appropriate way of doing these. 

 

LAYER NAMING:

• Naming a layer, is a 3 step process. we have to tap on the (3 dots), then tap above where it says pixel/image and then type the name. Cut that time into one tap.  Allow me to tap onto actual layer from the within layer menu, I tap on section where it says: pixel/image, *boom* name editing pops up right there. Makes things faster, it's literally right there and not being used, this function. Take advantage.

iCloud files - When you say 'had to do it, layer by layer' what do you mean? Are you opening up 1 file and exporting each of its layers to the cloud? Or are you asking for a feature wherein you can send a project containing multiple files up to the cloud?

 

Transparency - This should not be happening. At all. Can you attach a document displaying this behavior? I can't reproduce this. How are you sending it to the cloud?

 

Layer naming - I agree. However I'm not sure how we could achieve this. Double tap is reserved for expanding a group but this can be achieved with the arrow so perhaps a double tap to rename would be more useful. A long press is reserved for arranging the layer order. I'll pass this on to dev, though.
