    Basically the same UI as Fresco, but with a somewhat different toolset. Some of the features missing here from desktop PS are in Fresco, mostly related to drawing/painting and animation. Fresco also uses PSD as its native format.

    Hello, I need help with something. I'm using an iPad pro M2 and I'm an amateur photographer, I process the raw files I took in lightroom and save them to the gallery at 15 MB resolution when I export them. Later, when I open these 15 MB photo files in Photoshop, make a few simple corrections and export again quickly, the resolution drops to 900 KB and the image quality drops, I couldn't figure out where I went wrong. I'm an extremely uninformed user, by the way, do you have any knowledge of photoshop, I need help, thank you very much.

    Any progress on the iPad brush engine translation for Photoshop painting? This is one of the key advantages to the desktop version. I've yet to use a tablet app that can emulate Photoshop brushes with the fidelity that the desktop version can produce. See Digital Paining Workflow - John Singer Sargent speed painting - not the same. It still takes ages to get the desired effects. If the brushes could perform identically to the desktop version, Photoshop would be mobile painting king.

    How do u make a simple stroke using the marquee tool?

    • @dekeNow
      @dekeNow  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I assume this is a rhetorical question, as in “how can Ps iPad be THIS lame?” Then again, in case you’re *really* wondering, you 1) draw a marquee on a new layer, 2) fill it with black, 3) add a white Stroke effect (Ps iPad offers such things now), and 4) set the blend mode for the overall layer to Multiply. Which is NOT simple. Not like drawing a marquee and choosing Edit > Stroke, for example.

    It’s certainly not like desktop PS but that’s understandable. I still love it because it gives me more freedom to travel and not having to completely adjust my workflow. I can now even work in every corner in my house instead of constantly sitting behind my desk. The only thing that I have to adjust to is my 24” Wacom tablet but other than that I’m perfectly happy :D

      @dekeNow  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It is possible. I believe there are even solutions that work both with a Mac and an iPad, so you don't have to purchase multiple pieces of hardware. That said, I must admit, I have not experimented with any myself.

      Ps iPad now offers Drop Shadow and Stroke, as well as Liquify. For Liquify alone, I've been considering a revisit. But Adobe has been devoting so much effort to this-it really is amazing, given how long they previously ignored it-that I thought I’d wait until next year. Who knows? Maybe by 2024, it’ll actually be good!

      No it doesn’t. I saw a workaround where you can store a document of colors in Photoshop proper, and then sample from that in Ps iPad. But given that you can’t view two docs at once, I don’t see how that helps much.

    USELESS! I downloaded the free trial and I can’t believe Adobe even released this. You can’t sharpen image, No focus stacking, No PEN tool, No real warp tool and many more things! PS is the Biggest brand in its field and the ipad version is joke! For years! My biggest problem is that all these features exist in Affinity Photo for a ONE TIME FEE of $20. PS is like $70 yearly. Thats crazy!! Ipads today are as strong as laptops and used much more often. The ipad version is NOT a professional tool. I will say Lightroom app works great on ipad.

    • @dekeNow

      @@dekeNow sure. I have been using it for almost a year. Like always, there’s a small learning curve to get use to the UI. That being said, it has all the features you expect from a professional program. After finally willing to pay for the subscription for PS and after using it for the last month, I unfortunately can say it’s not worth paying Adobe for it. It’s surprising what Affinity offers s for just $20 (one time fee)

    Still no smart filters…meanwhile every other desktop software for editing has launched a mobile version almost identical to its desktop counter part…allllll this money Adobe warrants and the best it can do is……..empty promises….utter trash. There are apps that can do smart filters……..Apps!, so if an app has the ability to alter photos how come Adobe can’t figure it out.

      My guess is whoever’s in charge of the purse strings doesn’t want to allocate the $$. I’m sure there are folks on the team who feel deep frustration over it. Clearly, there’s interest among the customers.

      It’s as if no one sat down and identified those fundamentals things that make Photoshop Photoshop. Layers and blending, to be sure. Selection tools, layer masks, check. Destructive retouching tools, at the very least. But +/- zooming, channels, drop shadows, history, layer comps, guides, color management, the Pen tool, paths, *panels,* some basic edge filters-these are all pre-CS staples. [sigh] I could have been more catty, but I prefer to stay hopeful!
