iambia Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 i imported a load of brushes in affinity photo and used several on a project. i then added, today, a few more brushes i want to use. with some brushes, the app would quit and not install the brushes. i passed those by for later and added the brushes that would install. i comtinued to add some brushes when the prpgram quit yet again. this time, when i reopened it, the more that 40 brush packs i imstalled are now gone. any thoughts on what happened to all the brushes i installed and used?

Staff Lee D Posted January 8, 2019 Staff Share Posted January 8, 2019 If you're using Affinity Designer for iPad, some of the brushes that you imported may of been raster based. Try switching to the Pixel persona and checking the brushes studio for the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paolo.limoncelli Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I think there is a problem with picking unsynced files from iCloud... Try this procedure 1) Put the .afbrushes on your iCloud folder 2) Exit AD/AP 3) Open Files App 4) Tap the iCloud folder you put these in 5) Tap the .afbrushes file to make it properly synced (the tiny "cloud icon" must disappear) 6) Open AD and attempt the import again Quote The white dog, making tools for artists, illustrators and doodlers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then, after about 100 brushes, it quit and all the brushes I imported disappeared. Again. I can only assume it can only manage an exact number of brushes before crashing and erasing all brushes imported. I guess I'll import just a few brushes to work with for now. Not sure if this is a bug or merely my lack of knowledge as to how many brushes can be imported.
