I haven’t been able to work out how to copy selected art on a layer. Is it possible to make a selection, and then copy and paste it?

    I found it. Make a selection, long tap on a layer and you will see a duplicate selection option. Clicking that makes a new layer with the pasted content.

      Hello, ajoutez un clavier à votre iPad etdes raccourcis claviers existent pour copier/coller, regardez dans l'aide de Fresco.
      Pour tracer un trait rectiligne : Tracer le trait et patienter un peu avant de relever le stylet, pour oriter ce trait droit, déplacez le stylet jusqu'à satisfaction.

        Thanks, Michael
        Efforts appreciated.


        Yes - I already use that process.

        I'm looking for quick gestures that are comparable in speed to desktop ones.

        I do a lot of layout and concept sketching for work, and speed is key.
        The mobile processes are very slow (in most mobile apps, not just Adobe).
        They're about 10x slower, which is a killer at the speed needed for concept and layout sketches.

        So I'm looking for things equivalent to holding down the shift key to draw a straight line, keyboard shortcut support etc.

        The iPad and pencil are ideal alternatives to our Wacom devices and killer-portable.
        But tablet software is lagging far behind in some of these essential workflow basics.

        Am hoping, some of these have been added recently, but I'm guessing not.

        Right now my fastest solution is still pencil and paper and photographing the result with my iPad.


        Totally agree with this. Would love a solution!
