Louie Morais got a reaction from wtrmlnjuc in Ghost finger function - for designers using one hand or with RSI
Hi fellas,
I am suggesting the creation of a feature that allows designers to use the Apple pencil to emulate finger gestures when they are unable to use both hands, either because they are holding the tablet or are suffering from repetitive strain injury.
This feature works by tapping the amount of "ghost fingers" to emulate in the ghost finger button (where the stylus is pointing). As you tap the Ghost button, blue circles named Finger 1, 2, etc appear on the screen and a tooltip hints what gestures are available. The artist then can use the pencil to manipulate the object or canvas as if their fingers were on the screen:

Louie Morais got a reaction from MEB in "Free Transform"? How do I? For the iPad
Hey @MEB,
Respect to you brother, you went the third mile to help: recorded a video and even double checked what third party's guidelines had to be followed in order to make sure our community member was successful in her business.
Wow, man, you are a hero.

Louie Morais reacted to MEB in "Free Transform"? How do I? For the iPad
Hi Joise,
Here's the video using Photo for iPad. I've done it for the right leg. Use the same process for the left one or simply duplicate the the shape of the right leg, flip it horizontally and reposition on the left - it's quicker than drawing another shape for the left leg. I've used one of the star images you provided above and enlarged it on canvas just to show how to use a shape as a clipping layer but note those pattern images are too small to get a quality print. Redbubble provides a few guidelines/requirements you must follow to ensure you get a quality print. Check this page on their website for details on the required image dimensions.
NOTE/EDIT: I've been checking RedBubble guidelines/requirements and they do provide specific instructions and even a PSD template for this here. It's advisable to use it and follow their instructions to create the file as they require. The process explained/shown below in the video is just a generic way to use a shape as a clipping object/layer.
