Just tap once on a PDF in Dropbox for iPad and your document will be shown in full-screen, and better yet, all of the other UI elements like the navigation bar fade away and you just see the document itself. It’s not immediately obvious how to view it in full screen, but thankfully, it is possible! But just this weekend, immedately after sending an email to Dropbox lamenting the loss of the full-screen PDF feature, I discovered accidentally how to do it. So for months I was in a bit of a predicament regarding how to view a PDF in the app – double-tap zoomed, but didn’t remove the Panel from the split view controller. This served as an adequate almost-full-screen view of a PDF, but the (as of March 10, 2014) current version of the Dropbox app removed that functionality. Hmmm…Īdditionally, in the iOS 5 version of the Dropbox app, there used to be an arrow button in the navigation bar area to toggle the visibility of the navigation panel on the left. However, if you open a PDF document, that button is not present. In the Dropbox app for iPad, if you open a Word or other Office document, there is a little button in the lower right hand corner for viewing the document in full-screen. Note that for a particulate cloud service to appear as it does in my list (Dropbox for example), the respective cloud app needs to be installed and support the File Sharing extension.This was actually surprisingly difficult for me to figure out since there is basically no discoverability hints anywhere, and I literally found it by accident. Files are completely compatible between the iPad and Desktop versions, which is super handy to pick up projects where we’ve left them. That’s it! Now when you head back to the File – Open or File – Save options, you’ll see your favourite cloud services. Enable the ones you’d like to use, then hit done when you’ve finished. Under Locations you’ll see anything that’s available as a file option under Locations. This will let us add other sources/destinations to the sidebar under Locations.Ī new window appears, or rather the same window as above, just in what iOS calls “edit mode”. Next to the word Browse, there’s a small icon with three dots inside. In Clip Studio Paint, choose File – Open and this dialogue comes up. I can now use Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive and even Creative Cloud to load and save my imagines to/from. I’ve just figured out how to make other options available, if their respective apps are installed on your iPad. Whenever I tried to open a file, all I saw was two options:
When I started using the iPad version of Clip Studio Paint it wasn’t exactly obvious to me how to access cloud files from providers other than the CLIP Cloud.
