On Windows, press and hold works as it does on a touch screen. On a Mac, PixelBridge turns your first finger into the mouse pointer; macOS has no way for it to pass on scrolling or pinching. Touch on a Mac needs the Accessibility permission.
In pen mode, your fingers pan and zoom the picture on the device instead of working the computer. Switch to touch mode to use your fingers on the computer.
The shortcut palette
Section titled “The shortcut palette”The palette sends keyboard shortcuts to your computer, so undo, brush size and the rest are a tap away with no keyboard in reach.
- Tap a shortcut to send it.
- Edit the shortcuts, and pin the palette as a floating strip while you work.
- The palette can switch its set of shortcuts to match the drawing app in front.
On Windows, the computer side is Macro palette in Settings › Pen, on by default.
