lucarubino Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I have a big suggest for you. Your software is great and the hardware too (iPad 10.5). So why I still use AF on desktop all the time? Due to the lack of a cursor. When i do D&B, I never see the area affected by the brush and this is annoying me. I don't know if the brush size fit my needs. And I cannot be precise (which area will be affected when I use the pencil?) I know that iPad doesn't have a cursor as I have on my desktop, but it would be nice to have a button that once you press it, the Apple Pencil doesn't draw anything, but just moving a cursor on the canvas. When I release the button, still showing the cursor, I start to draw, as well as I do right now. Sorry for my english. A_B_C 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DM1 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 The beta has a 'show touches' setting however it is a fixed size circle. I¡m not sure what it is meant to achieve as I can see where I tap with my pencil. It does not change size when brush size is altered so I don't find it at all useful. For detailed work, the blue touches circle just gets in the way. Perhaps developers can make it reflect brush/Settings size? Then it might be useful.
