For those who stumble upon this hoping their SLS will work for vector art - unfortunately, you'll find the SLS lack terribly in all apps. Why? Because companies suck at caring about Windows touch devices. Illustrator, Designer, CSP, etc all have individual downfalls for artists trying to use the SLS and a pen.
Trust me - I sold my Macbook Pro and iPad Pro to get an SLS and now have my SLS for sale on eBay to switch back.
Breakdown:
Illustrator doesn't do touch gestures or touch for gestures only. So your fingers will draw, select, and jack up your work. Rotating the canvas is terrible, and the response to touch in general is terrible.
Affinity Designer has no canvas rotation. After using the pen there is a delay between it recognizing your fingers for gestures like zoom, etc. Overall super glitchy and has a ton of issues with randomly not reading your fingers, but still reading your pen, and then reverse.
Clip Studio Paint is the best, but unfortunately if you're mainly working in vector...it's a very raster forward program, with no vector fills, etc. But does have gestures like two finger undo and canvas rotation. But for me the lack of vector attention ruins it for me.
So, switching back to an iPad Pro and Affinity Designer is what I'm doing.
IF you stay with the SLS, snag the Xencelabs Quick Keys and thank me later. Set it up for undo/redo, tools, alt, shft, etc. Still with it hate using my SLS for design work in tablet mode.
