Just that. It would be a nice quality-of-life improvement, having the option to set a custom KB shortcut to save a few taps/clicks and just have the layers panel and the Layer Options pop-up window open automatically, with the text input field already activated and ready to go. If it's already possible sorry for my ignorance, I think I've checked all the options in Preferences and didn't saw it.

Thanks in advance!

Suggestions, Ideas, Bugs / Suggestion: different workspaces
on: October 10, 2022, 07:20:24 AM
Hi again!
A bit off topic, but I wanted to say this first: I can’t be happier with the app and the updates we’re getting! I’m always spreading the word and trying to bring people to switch to ASP, the BEST drawing app on iPad by far!

Now for the suggestion: it would be nice for my workflow (and maybe for others as well) to be able to set different "workspaces" with a specific set of tools (and settings, maybe? But this might be trickier I suppose) for different stages of any given process. In my case, I’d like to have a sketching/inking workspace, a flatting/coloring one, and a painting/rendering one, each with a given set of tools/favorites on the toolbar, as they’re all quite different workflows and require a very different sets of tools. It would be a timesaver to be able to switch between them (let’s say through the preferences panel—>interface, probably?). This would allow for a more compact set of tools and presets for each stage of the process, without having to swipe through the toolbar and/or having way too many items in the quick menu.
Hope you might consider adding this! It would be cool to know also if more users are interested in this feature being added. Thanks in advance!

Suggestions, Ideas, Bugs / Performance issues after last update
on: February 13, 2022, 07:32:08 AM
iPad Pro 12.9" (2018) iPadOS 14.5
Updated after staying for quite a while on 3.X.
Now the same files I’ve used to work on (300 - 500 MB A3 Canvas with many many layers) take a longer time to open, the app closes when going to a different app for a sec or when screen is locked and then unlocked, can’t have more than 2 documents open at the same time (10+ before update), occasional crashes… Not good.

Is this performance drop something you’re aware of and planning to fix, or is just how the things are going to be moving forward? I’d really like to get same level of smooth performance as before…

1.) As I work with a lot of layers, it would really help my workflow (and maybe others’ as well) to have the option to add a coloured tag to the layers (similar to Photoshop) to help differentiate them. Red for lineart, blue for flat colors, cyan for rendering, orange for references, green for text or whatever. It would help a lot with organizing the document. Being able to see what a layer is at a glance would really speed up things a lot. Right now I find myself scrolling through the layers panel looking for what I need for a while. Identifying a layer only through it’s thumbnail or label takes some time.

It would be an extra option on the layer’s panel (alongside Lock transparency, Lock pixels, Lock position and Reference. Hope others will find it useful enough and it’s not a pain in the a** to implement so we can see it happen!

2.) Have a set of options when exporting to jpeg and pdf (mainly to manage dpi and color profile), so that you don’t have to use a different app to create a light, printable file for example.

Thanks and have a great day!

Help / Recent colors side menu?
on: September 29, 2020, 08:40:43 PM
Hi! Using the app since i got my iPad last year... been however busy with other stuff for a while and I’m coming back to my projects now. Updated to latest version (which is cool, some nice improvements) and I think I remember having the swatches on the side (or bottom?) that were showing me my recently used colors. Somehow I’m not being able to find the option to activate it now... Was that a thing and it got removed or buried somewhere where I’m too dumb to find it or I’m just remembering all wrong... Anyways, that’s a very useful feature! If someone can point me in the right direction would be great... if it just doesn’t exist, please consider adding it :)

Thanks for this amazing app!
