How much storage do I need?
Hello everyone. I am contemplating buying a new iPad and am wondering what your experience, or recommendations are for on-board storage. My current iPad is older and only has 128gb of space and I only used about 75gb - most of my files are on iCloud. However, I’m wondering if there are workflow, or other advantages to keeping more files on my iPad. So is it worth it to go for a higher capacity, or is cheaping-out still a good way to go?

@Henry Gao thanks Henry, that’s good to know. If a heavy drawing app user like you is fine with low storage, then I should be fine too. I was thinking someone like you might need more storage to bring plans to job sites.
Naming Layers in Morpholio Trace: It’s Finally Here!
I just found out you can expand the layer palette with this little arrow, so it’s super easy to rename and organize your layers now—something I’ve been wanting forever. I also heard there’s a big update coming later this year that’ll let you group layers into folders (like in Procreate), among other things, like a big revamp to adding text. Ask @Joey Swerdlin (director at Morpholio) if you are curious.

It’s like Christmas came early this year. I’ve wanted the ability to see layer names for everrr. No more hunting and pecking to find things.

@Henry Gao ok, you got my attention…
Morpholio snuck in a new exciting feature!
Now you can edit images with the erase and lasso tools! This makes transforming textures, materials, and artwork incredibly easy. All you have to do is download the latest version of Trace (be sure to open the app page after you search so you get the “Update” button) and then turn on “Edit Images” in the Settings. #How to transform texture and materials?

The Layers!
Morpholio Trace - Is there a way to see layer names, other than clicking on them?

This is an upgrade that I asked for a year or so ago via the MT request form. It would be so much better if you could identify the layers in the side bar and therefore know which one to select.
Sketch up for Construction Docs?
Hello, I am an architect who retired after a 30-year career with the NYS housing agencies but want to keep dabbling in a few projects a year. Currently I have a professional office to home conversion project that I drafted with Morpholio Trace. MT is a great program, but I was stretching its limits using it this way. I’d like to invest in and learn Sketchup and am wondering if it would work well as a drafting program. It would be great to stay in one program for 2D drafting and 3D modeling. I’d like to stay with an iPad platform, so I am also wondering how Sketchup for iPad compares to the desktop version. I never fully learned Autcad and feel it is too robust and complicated to justify investing in it. PS: I do not have a photo of my work space, if I did post one, it would be a picture of an iPad as I work wherever convenient and comfortable.

@Henry Gao I totally agree with you, MT is very reasonably priced. How is $20/yr otherwise?
