Thank you for this tutorial. Was soooo easy to follow 🥰 💕Any chance of doing a tutorial for how to do a mirrored /symmetrical shapes. There are some tutorials but nothing for iPad and the only one I found was a bit hard to follow 🥴

[@TheCreativeStudio1]

Hi kristiana- thanks for the comment! I can definitely add this to my upcoming video tutorials list. Can you share a link to the video you mentioned? Want to make sure I understand what you’re asking. I might have shortcut for it using affine but want to make sure I’m thinking the same you are.

Thank you! Cheers!

Do you happen to have a similar video on this topic for affinity on desktop? I love how you explain and demonstrate things but I can’t follow along too well for iPad because the affinity tools as you know are accessed differently on a pc.

[@TheCreativeStudio1]

Hey there @finallymakinit! I do not have one for designer on youtube but I do for photo - I’ll make sure to add it to my list of tutorials to make for YT- here’s The affinity photo version - m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4aYlaiQqaZpZrM - also I show how to do a repeat in the desktop version of Affinity Designer over on skillshare - www.skillshare.com/classes/Spark-AR-for-Surface-Pattern-Designers-Create-Filters-for-Instastories-using-Affinity-Designer/762551324?lessonsTab=on&via=user-profile

Fab tutorial, thank you! When I create a pattern, there is always the fine lines around the edges, even when everything is lined up correctly - is there a way of making it completely seamless?

[@TheCreativeStudio1]

Hi there - make sure you do not have any outlines on your preview tiles or in your original tile - that’s usually the culprit for this - or things are not lined up perfectly using the transform tools for correct number placement - once you check that / then you can actually test the single tile using the pattern fill in a new file as i do toward the end of the tut and not just the preview that’s in the same file - if it doesn’t have lines you are good to go.

Thanks

[@TheCreativeStudio1]

Happy to share! You are very welcome.

[@tuesdydadulo1514]

Do you know how to create a houndstooth repeat using affinity on the iPad? If so could you do a tutorial on that….I am struggling to do so

[@TheCreativeStudio1]

I’ll add it to my list of videos to create!

[@tuesdydadulo1514]

@@TheCreativeStudio1 I am looking forward to it!!! Thank you for your response

[@healthyLifeWithRenee]

What am I doing wrong? I don't know why when use transform studio for block 2 (2000) my block moves down and SQ on board 1 dissappears. I tried a few more times and my block in upper left moves down left without making a copy...

[@TheCreativeStudio1]

Hi there! Make sure your layers are on the correct artboards in your layers studio - sometimes you can accidentally paste layers that should be on layer one onto layer two and it all cause your element to move off screen off the artboard. Hope that helps!!

[@healthyLifeWithRenee]

@@TheCreativeStudio1 ok I will try that thank you

[@aczynaswspinanie6151]

Thank you!

[@docgallery]

What do you mean by y markers at zero. Please explain, I can’t get rid of white lines

[@TheCreativeStudio1]

Hi DOC you will find the x and y in your transform studio - the white lines might show up in your preview (the larger art board) but if your tile is done correctly they won’t show up in final work. The best way to test this is to export your tile art board only as a Jpeg and then go into a new file and apply the pattern to a shape using the fill tool - create a shape with the shape tool, then select the fill tool and then change the fill type from solid to bitmap and select the jpeg you exported. Finally my other suggestion is to make sure your tile does not have an outline (like a stroke - you will see this in your color wheel - there will be a color in both the circle and the circle outline ⭕️ ) as that could be causing issues in the final file.
