Saving Decks in Files - Re-importing into Tagtool

Hey,

Just wanted to sum up some basic infos about the new deck functionalities. Basically you found it out all by yourself.

Creating a new deck

Just a quick recap at the beginning. "My Deck" is the default deck within Tagtool, that comes pre-installed and cannot be deleted and/or edited. As soon as you press the "+" in the top right corner of the decks menu you create a new deck folder.

Here in my example i created a folder called “Clowns” that contains 2 saved items.

Using the Files App

Since the new update you are able to access your saved deckitems via the Files App.

After you have opened the it, you need to select “On My iPad” first and browse to the local Tagtool folder.

The Tagtool folder shows 3 items.

  • The “Backup Folder”: It contains all your saved animations before you did the the update.
  • The “Decks” Folder: That is the current folder where all your animations are stored
  • The “Unity” Folder: A system folder, where In-App purchases are saved and crash logs are collected

Decks Folder

This is the folder that stores all your saved Tagtool artwork. Each deck folder you have created is listed here. The deck´s name is always at the beginning - followed by a digital identifier.

Once you have your folders prepared within Tagtool you can start to move it from your iPad.
By holding onto it for a couple of seconds you can copy it to another location eg.: iCloud
Make sure you always copy the complete folder and do not rename or duplicate it at any time.
