Sync issues between Fresco and Photoshop
I recently discovered Fresco after years of using Photoshop on a desktop for digital art and have been thrilled with this app -- I even purchased a new iPad Pro and have been loving it. I have experienced some glitches syncing files with Adobe Cloud, but this morning things got especially weird.
I had a painting going that needed a bit of it transformed, so closed it in Fresco and opened it in the Photoshop app -- all on the iPad -- selected the area, transformed it, closed it (it saved) and gave things a minute for the blue arrow swirl to disappear before I opened it in Fresco again. The transformed area was unchanged, the same as it was before. Ok, no problem, I closed everything, relaunched the apps -- the transform showed in PS but not when I opened it in Fresco. Ok, so let's do a major rehaul -- I jumped off and on my wireless, uninstalled and reinstalled both apps -- same thing! I did keep getting syncing error messages, so I said ok, let time work it out, and so I opened the file in Fresco and finished painting it over the course of 40 minutes or so, then gave it a while to sync up.
Here's the weird bit: now, in Photoshop, the file shows the transform AND the 40 minutes of painting in Fresco. But in Fresco, there's all the painting but still no transformed bit! And I can't transform it again in Photoshop because Photoshop shows it already transformed. What is happening??
As a longtime digital artist the whole instant swapping between apps sounded too good to be true so I honestly don't mind waiting for things to sync, but this is a little infuriating. Is the edit there or is it not? I was able to paint in Photoshop and see it show up in Fresco, but not the transform. Are some Photoshop edits limited to Photoshop? Any help on improving this process would be appreciated.
