reselect the selelection from a mask


Recommended Posts

  • Staff

Hi jan.schadewitz :)

Without Saving the Selection this isn't possible on the iPad currently, my apologies. If you save your selection before creating your mask however you can reselect this selection at a later time. I hope this helps! 

Please Note: I am now out of the office until Tuesday 2nd April on annual leave.

If you require urgent assistance, please create a new thread and a member of our team will be sure to assist asap.

Many thanks :)

You can in some instances long press on screen when in Selection Persona and tap Reselect from the on screen  menu options.

How can I reselect the selelection from a mask in the iPad version of affinity.

in the PC version I can press „Alt“ and click on the  mask, how can I make this on the IPad

Not sure if this is what you are trying to do but try the SelectionFromLayer macro in this Macro Library I collated for the iPad, it simply replaces the desktop command as a macro.

Mud’s Macros

SelectionFromLayer - convert a layer into a pixel selection (the missing desktop command)
SelectAllLayers - select all layers quickly (the missing desktop command)
DeSelectAllLayers - de select all layers quickly (the missing desktop command)
PencilPortrait - Convert Photo to pencil sketch (Credit: Alpha Sierra, YouTube)
InpaintCrop2 - fix edges after a straighten crop (Credit: Jim Welsh)
Inpaint - the inpaint command (the missing desktop command)

Unfortunately Designer does not support macros, it appears to be restricted to Affinity Photo on all platforms Angelos.
