How to trace an image with your Apple Pencil on the iPad Pro -- and when not to
On the subject of tracing, I often need to take an image from my iPad Pro to paper. For example, I might do a rough sketch on the iPad using Apple Pencil, then I might want to trace that onto some watercolour paper for hand painting. To do this I use a really simple but useful little App called "Lightbox Trace". It allows me to place an image on the screen and lock all finger input so that I can place my paper on the screen and trace with a pencil without any unwanted screen input. Very useful. -
iOS 12 now on 75 percent of compatible devices, hit mark faster than iOS 11
I was not in a particular hurry to upgrade to iOS12. I was busy and didn't really care either way - but the nagging tactics that Apple employs and the infuriating tactic of making me punch in my pin every time I dismissed a nag to update wore me down and eventually I just did it for peace sake. So I wonder how many others did the same thing. Nagging users to death until they upgrade can hardly be counted as enthusiastic adoption. -
How to use your iPad as a display in macOS Catalina with Sidecar [u]
Thanks for the Video. I have been using Astropad and Duet up until now and they have not been the best experiences. So I'm super-stoked to see that Apple has finally implemented this natively. Certainly is a finger in the eye for quite a few companies - maybe even Wacom if this is taken to it's logical conclusion as a mini-cintique type experience. -
Apple discontinues full-size HomePod, to focus on HomePod mini
What has put me off touching the HomePod or Mini so far is the lack of portability. If I could charge it, unplug it and take with me and get a few hours listening cordless, I'd be more interested - but while it's permanently tethered - no thanks. There are decent cheaper chargeable cordless speakers out there, suitable for "round-the-pool" enjoyment.
