![]() ![]() ![]() I don't want to be a bother, or that needy guy who is always asking for stuff (hahaha, I mean, i already am that, but squeaky wheel gets the oil right?). What if (like the floating modifier dot that activates ALT, CNTRL, SHIFT, etc.), there was also an optional floating color well for fill and stroke, that could act the way the pre-2.1 left toolbar eye dropper used to work (with a quick drag out color loupe for picking color on the currently selected object, WITHOUT switching tools.) but bumping without a suggestion of a fix felt lazy, haha, so here's my idea! I was mulling over this issue a bit and wanted to bump this thread in hopes of a fix in 2.3. These touch specific gestures are what make iPad an amazing platform to work on. ![]() This is one of my most used gestures on iPad, it's a HUGE timesaver. Notice in the video, i have the MOVE TOOL selected, and i recolor each block(s) multiple times by dragging out the EYE DROPPER without ever switching away from the MOVE TOOL. just as I finished, my older iPad updated to 2.1, so i would have to download 1.X to show more examples. It was an indispensable useful timesaver. This was a quick, temporary gesture that would let you pick a color without changing tools, or performing multiple taps. On every version prior to 2.1, you could tap AND DRAG the eyedropper to get an instant color picker that would float along with your preferred pointing device until you let go, upon letting go, the color you were floating on is instantly applied to your selected objects. This is an issue with Designer, not Photo (did photo have this feature, i don't know). Yes, you missed the issue entirely, haha. If you tap colour picker on the pop out menu it stays set to colour picker until you set it to Style. Thanks again guys! Keep doing what you do! Please consider restoring this function, new muscle memory is hard to form at the age of 41, hahaha. I have a suggestion for a compromise that doesn't remove functionality (see my render below the video), while still making the color and style picker prominent and easy to reach/find. Affinity's strength over Adobe is the ability to work fast and the super optimal workspace that just keeps you moving! This was one of those incredible gestures that helped keep that speed going! I am all for new additions and updates to make the App better, but the essence of iPad is the super convenient gestures like dragging the stroke icon to adjust on the fly, and the color icon to lighten and darken the current color. ![]() which kills the quick color selector □ gesture. With the introduction of the style picker tool, the color picker and style picker now have a tool pop out menu. The color picker in the left tool panel has always been able to be quickly dragged out to quick select a color, in a usual illustration session I would reach for this function almost every time i draw a shape. Hey guys, I'm not sure if this was intentional, but one of the most useful gestures that has been in AFDesigner on ipad from the day one was broken in 2.1. ![]()
