Fresco

Hello,  i'd like to know if there is a way to draw a perfect circle in Fresco (or a square) for iPad? Is there any shape tool? or anything else to do it? If not, maybe it would be great to add it on the next update, it can be really helpfull for the first sketches. Maybe a tool like in Procreate since Fresco seem to be a direct competitor to Procreate. I love Fresco but with this tool i would love it more;-) Thanks a lot! j.   [Renamed by Mod]

Hey Guys!!I’m using a Microsoft Surface Pro 11 (ARM – Snapdragon X Plus) and I’m unable to import any official Adobe Fresco brush sets through the “+ Add Brushes” → “Discover New Brushes” feature.When I select a brush set, Fresco shows “Adding…”, but the brushes never appear in my Creative Cloud Library. The process never completes.I have already tried the usual troubleshooting steps, including: deleting the “LIBS” folder under AppData restarting Creative Cloud reinstalling Fresco signing out/in of Creative Cloud resetting sync None of these steps fixed the issue.Interestingly, importing third‑party brushes (.abr) works perfectly. Only the Creative‑Cloud‑based official brush sets fail to import. It seems like Fresco cannot write anything into my Creative Cloud Libraries on this ARM‑based Windows device.Is this a known issue with Adobe Fresco or Creative Cloud on ARM Windows? Is there any workaround or fix available? If not, can you recommend reliable sources for high‑quality th

I realised I needed to copy a part of one frame to another frame. When I tried doing so, I cannot figure out how to do it without creating a new frame. I want to paste it on top of an existing frame, and there isn’t a way to merge frames. How do I do that? I searched around and couldn’t figure out how to do it.

Been working on psd file for 2 days and now exporting time lapse goes black. Tried reducing file size. Any reason why this would happen?  

I've tried everything to try to add the brushes. From discovering new brushes to adding brushes from files. I've uninstalled everything and reinstalled it. I've done what they say on the official Adobe website to fix the problem, but nothing works. Whatever I do, it just keeps thinking about adding brushes for two hours and doesn't download anything. And if I download them from the official Adobe website, it says they weren't found or an error occurred. In short, I've been trying to fix it for three days and do everything. Creative Cloud is available with storage and synchronization, and I don't know what else to do. And I've read many people on other forums that the exact same thing is happening to them.

Toolbar on the left disappears into the top of the screen and I can’t move it down or disconnect it anymore, so I can’t change the size of the brush or eraser. Which means now I’m stuck and can’t continue any of my projects. I’ve logged out, turned my computer on/off, etc. and nothing has changed. wtf?? I can change the brush and the color, but not the size of the brush or eraser. It’s all stuck on one size.

Just the pc version is a hot mess, cant get my brushes and shapes on the pc, we need import function for brushes and shapes, and a fix to missing menu items like duplicate and copy all have disappeared. Was there yesterday now gone. please give a update on fixes for all these, its like you dont care about the pc version, just mac. 

All my documents load in the Cloud and in the app, but the second I try opening anything it just tells me Fresco can't open the document and that I need to contact support. I had to call off a commission because of this. What’s going on?EDIT: If I try to create a new document, I get this message: (ErrorCode -2005270523 “HRESULT error: The GPU device instance has been suspended. Use GetDeviceRemovedReason to determine the appropriate action.”)Not sure what it means. I have made no changes to my device or app that would have warranted this.

Adobe Fresco cannot export PNG files properly.The files I exported to png all turn out to be a renamed file with many numbers, and the file type is also in numbers eg. File-2026-05-18To7:51:08.075Z I have to manually change the names all over again, and type the file as .png to see it.I am not sure if these files are capable of sending to print by manually changing the file type in this way.I am using Fresco with my newly bought ipad air, the newest IOS, and also the most updates fresco version. Please does anyone knows if this can be resolved, or can I reach an adobe support hotline with human to help out? Thank you.

When use the “place image” tool and select a normal .png file from my existing files, the window closes and nothing is added. When I use the camera feature, it works fine. When I click and drag an image into the program through my files, nothing happens. It does not create an image layer. Nothing happens. The only way I can add images to Fresco is by copy/pasting them in, which loses any transparent qualities of the image and is not preferable.This has been the case for my program for years. This feature has never worked through countless reinstalls, updates, and troubleshooting. I finally am throwing the towel in and asking for help.

I love the vector Fresco brush but the interface and workflow could be much improved.I only need a handful of tools, a few brushes and a compact color palette when im making an illustration. All the rest is taking up valuable screen real estate.People have different workflows. Please let us dock the tools that we use all the time in the sidebar so they are only one tap away. regardsJan

I’m still fairly new to Fresco, and what’s new in this version compared to the last.but I really like the new fill tool now when I’m drawing in vector I can see the bucket on the tool bar and it fills as expected. It’s really satisfying. in the past I’d have to figure out which icon was fill and then remember the correct sub tool that did what I sxpected thanks team. I know you’re always putting in a lot of hard work I can tell from all the video tutorials I watch and the progressive improvements and it’s a drop in the ocean but I hope you see that your work is appreciated despite how particular we all are here about getting just what we each like. 

after the recent update (april 2026) where the toolbar is now on the top instead of the side. I noticed that the color paletts were also changed, and more shockingly...all my custom palettes are gone. It will still load the imported image colors, but I used to have “sets” made for different clients. I didn’t realize you could save those to the cloud (I think, still not clear about that), so these only lived in Fresco….. Anyone else experience this? It’s really hard to make multiple images for clients without their specific palettes loaded up. Moving forward, how to I make them “permanent”?This is rediculous……..I also preferred the tools on the left, as i am right-handed. and the undo/redo is a little farther out of reach for me now. Not liking it so far. 

I created a Adobe Fresco File and I have been working on it for a wile and now it can’t be opened anymore with out any reason!! The message says that the file is not a real PSD file.Please help me, I need to finish this project until next week.Thank you

I can’t log in with my credentials in any way because the ipad asks for COOKIES not being enabled, wtf is that about?! I ahve a few drawings I would like to access please.

Have been using Adobe Fresco on the iPad for years without a problem. Now experiencing problems moving and grouping layers. With the Layers Panel accessed, I usually tap and hold the layer I want to move and drag it to the desired position in the layer stack. Alternatively, to group, I hold the layer and drag it to the group or layer to be grouped with. This simple and fundamental function no longer works for me. Tapping and holding the layer highlights the layer I want to move but it won't move and just jumps back to it's starting position. Grouping doesn't work either. I have recently updated to iOS26 and wonder if there is an issue here. Is anyone else experiencing this? I have tried re-installing the app but this has made no difference. Frustrating as I can't complete any projects without this core function and will need to find an alternative in the meantime.

Hi,    I started using Adobe Fresco, but everytime I open it I get a message saying that I need at least 3gb of space on my iPad to be able to use it. I have more than 10 gb of free space so I don't really understand. I tried deleting a few things, restarting my iPad, re-downloading the app and I managed to make it work a few times, but I mostly just can't use it.    I like using the app when I manage to make it work, so any advice would be welcomed 🙂    Thank you,    Isabelle   14/02/20 Update Many months after I still have this problem. The issue went away for a while and it recently came back. The only way to fix it is to re-install the app and the last time I did that I lost a project I had worked on that I now have to re-do. Looking forward for this to be fixed, I'll be using procreate in the meanwhile   [Renamed by Mod]

Hi Adobe Fresco team,I found an issue after the recent Fresco update related to the Favorites brush category.I use both Pixel Brushes and Vector Brushes, and I add them to Favorites so I can quickly switch between them from the same Favorites section.However, when switching from a Pixel Brush to a Vector Brush (or from Vector to Pixel), Fresco automatically jumps back to the original brush category instead of staying in Favorites. Because of this, I have to scroll back up to the Favorites section every time.The issue only happens when switching between Pixel and Vector brushes:Pixel → Pixel works normally Vector → Vector works normally Pixel ↔ Vector causes the brush panel to jump away from FavoritesThis behavior started after the latest updat

Fresco was freezing and delaying a lot, then it crashed and kicked me out. When i tried entering again, it kept saying “saving”, and it still said that after i restarted the device. I went to check the previously asked questions and tried to check my files through the adobe website, but it was gone, and when i went back into the app the file wasn’t there or in the deleted section (i have pretty alright wifi, the file was a bit big though)

WE NEED OLD LAYOUT

When you first click on the “request a feature” button/link, it takes you to a page where you can select a community to post a feature request. There are many icons/options, but none for Adobe Fresco. That’s, all, thanks.  

Hi, I would like to request that you add keyboard shortcuts for zoom in/out and rotate left/right. It would also be great if you can have the default be some percentage, ie: 10% each button click, and maybe with a modifier key it would be finer grain control, ie: 2-5%. I like using a macropad to speed up my workflow and would like to program my pad to do this.thanks

I use the vector trimming feature all the time and i really don’t like double-clicking (sometimes feels like triple clicking) that little button. I use a macropad to speed up my workflow and being able to have that as a programmable option would change my life! Please and thank you. 

El menú o barra de herramientas en Adobe Fresco se a cambiado a la parte superior de la pantalla. Nooooo me gusta. Extraño cuando estaba en el lateral de la izquierda. Se puede cambiar de lugar ? En la foto ”2” está como me gusta.Mientras que en la foto ”1” está la barra arriba y no me gusta, haci se ve ahora mismo. puedo cambiarlo? 

I had some syncing issues with my Fresco app on my iPad (app wouldn’t open any files and was continuously crashing). Nothing was helping, so I decided my last option was to uninstall and reinstall.Unfortunately, when I signed back in, NONE of my files were there; which leads me to believe they were never synced? Even though I had icons multiple times telling me they were.Does anyone have any tips about recovering this data?Would it be in Adobe files somewhere? I’ve lost almost 2 years of working file that I thought were backed up…Any info is greatly appreciated!
