Bennie Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 (edited) Using iOS 12, iPad Pro 2nd gen., AP 1.6.9.81. When I use the clone tool, for instance, as I touch the pencil to the screen I immediately get the message “you must press and hold to set a source before trying to clone”. No matter how long, or how many times, I press and hold the message stays on screen and will not allow me to select a source. I can select a source without problem if I press and hold using my finger. I did not have this problem with AP 1.6.8. I tried setting “touch for gestures only” but that didn’t help. I am able to use the Apple Pencil to select the source if I use the “on screen modifier key”. Hope this is not because of the change in gestures with this version, because I seriously lose accuracy with my finger in the way. Edited September 24, 2018 by Bennie Add complete verion number.

DM1 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Pretty sure this is a bug (and has been reported several times since 1.6.9 released). A workaround is to simply use a finger to select the source, then use pencil as normal. Hopefully this will be remedied in the next release.
