Icon size too small

[Pollicina]

sorry for my question, I updated the affinity designer and photo on my ipad pro 10.5 " and all icons are small In my device, how to enlarge them?

Hi Pollicina, the new smaller icons are supposed to provide more drawing space on screen.  There is currently no option to enlarge them in the app. Perhaps a feature request opportunity?

In the iPad Settings, General, Accessibility there is a zoom option that can create a small window. That you can move over the screen to magnify that part of the screen.

I kind of agree with this, on the 12.9 pro, the icons, points and handles were all a perfect size. I understand this change on smaller iPads, but the 12.9 wasn’t hurting for screen real estate. A user configurable option for this would be stellar.

Hi Pollicina,

As DM1 has mentioned this was indeed an intentional design choice. However as TonyO has mentioned a configurable option would be a nice idea, so worth posting into the improvements forum!

Thank you all for the answers. @TonyO is absolutely right, it would be interesting to be able to choose the size of the icons based on your device.Zoom option is inconvenient to use when I design but thanks  so much for your suggestion @DM1.

@Sean P, i will open a new thread on Feature requests.

@Sean P, Points and handle size could also use the user configurable treatment as well. The updated apple pencil precision is making points and handles hard to select.

Just downloaded Affinity Photo to my iPad Pro. My old eyes can barely see the toolbar icons. Won't be able to use the program until that becomes adjustable.
