Question: How do I open PSDs in Sketchbook Mobile?

Anonymous
Not applicable

This is very frustrating,  I am trying to save my working files as PSDs to my SD card; as I don't have adequate space on my tablet to work strictly out of the Gallery, and I cannot move the Gallery to my SD card where documents  belong after all. Because your app will only open tiff files in the original gallery folder. Which is ridiculous.  

 

My problem is your mobile app throws an error when I try to open psd files created with the mobile app. So please tell me how I can open the PSD files your program creates? Please don't tell me that not possible, I mean really why would you have an option to save to a format you just can't open!! After all that would be Ridiculous no?

Your Answer seems to indicate that Sketchbook Mobile for IOS has this Function.

I guess I should have been more clear, in that I am on a Samsung Tablet; and it seems to pretty clearly not available for Android; unless there is some hidden menu, icon something I am missing.

When you add an image from the gallery, a psd or tiff will open up with layers. Hope that helps!

I also have a Samsung Tablet, and was also trying to find a way out. Yes, it is very well hidden, but it is perfectly possible to import the same psd exported from Sketchbook (and also psd from others than sketchbook), like this:


Menu > Gallery > + > New From Image > MyFiles


then, navigate to the folder where your psd are (even those on the sd card), select one and press "DONE".


Sketchbook will import them like a charm, with all layers etc... And now you can reset your Samsung Tablet to factory defaults in the peace of God, and you won´t loose your Sketchbook works, and better yet, gaining interoperability with other software like photoshop or gimp.

I have tried exaclty that process but although sketchbook sees the psd file I am trying to open, when I try to open it, I get the error 'oops Failed to open the image'. So it would appear not to be compatible with psd files?

Well, I don't think so. As I said, everything went well for me. Maybe specifically with this file of yours? Or maybe with the version of your S Note application ...? Maybe you should try the whole stream again with a new file, created natively in your S Note application.
