Mariusz go Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 Second problem. Quote The file includes features from a later version of Affinity. The same file edited in the iPad may suddenly be rejected by the Desktop version due to the editing and use of some unfortunate tool or instrument. Attached Two files. One (Untitled copy.afdesign) is a working copy described in the first post. The second (Untitled.afdesign) is a file that has stopped working during the iPad edition.

Close document on iPad home screen to remove the sandbox copy. 2. Mac: Open document, change and save. 3. iPad. iCloud I see changes. 3a. Open document from iCloud 4. iPad Affinity Designer you will now see the changes. NOTE Mac or PC version does not use a sandbox only the iPad where auto saves are sent to. Don’t use sandbox for long term storage. If you delete the app you delete the sandbox. Mariusz go 1 Quote My dad always told me, a bad workman always blames their tools….

Mariusz go Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 Please help. You can not open files in the Desktop for free editing on iPad and Desktop alternately. This is the basis for using this tool for me. What can I do with blocked files for Desktop? I need them to work. Not all I can export and improve on the Desktop again.

Best Regards Yes you can save to your Mac desktop but must follow these steps on iPad 1. Use “Open from Cloud” option to open file. ( DO NOT not import or click on the file in the files app!) 2. make edits then return to home screen 3. on home screen press the hamburger icon and select save then close. 60F838F7-12CB-4000-82F0-64878E93A8FB.MP4 DM1 1 Quote My dad always told me, a bad workman always blames their tools….

Paul Mudditt Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Sorry been out for a meal with the wife, I agree with DM1, both designs open fine on iPad and on Mac versions of Designer. I also checked and they both open fine in Affinity Photo as well. The most likely reason you couldn’t load the file is because it hadn’t downloaded from iCloud properly.

I've used version 1.5.5. After updating to the new version, i works correctly. I bought Affinity Designer using Appstore and I was sure that the update will happen automatically. Errors like a child. Thank you for your help and valuable time! DM1 and Paul Mudditt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
