As you twist, a different tool is highlighted. Once the radial menu appears, twist the dial to switch tools. Tap-hold to access the menu (you’ll feel the dial vibrate as the menu opens). The radial menu is a hub containing the Undo, Brush, Color, and Canvas tools. This will place all the tools on the opposite side of dial, where your hand/arm won’t obscure them. With the dial, the Undo/ Redo feature is quite something! Changing tool position for left-handed usersįor anyone using the dial who is left-handed, I suggest you open your device Settings, select Pen & Windows Ink, then under Pen where it states Choose which hand you write with, set Left Hand. Plus, how would you like to undo or redo at the twist of a dial, seeing as each stroke is removed or replaced? It will probably remind you of watching a time-lapse of a drawing being created or undone. Whichever mode you choose to work in, you’ll feel the vibration (haptic feedback) as you access the radial menu, select tools, and select tool options for adjusting brushes, colors, even your canvas. There are two ways to use the dial: off-screen and on-screen.

To get the best experience with SketchBook on either desktop or mobile, we recommend using it with an input device. Update: Apologies to Ellie, who commented below for a) Not replying very quickly and also b) deleting the comment in error. The Note 2 phone (which I also have) packs the same amount of pixels into a screen half the size and it is a thing of beauty… Samsung you really need to up the ante on the screen resolution. I’ve used the S-Pen a hell of a lot more and it’s still going strong.
Despite hardly using it, the tip needed replacing after only a couple of months. Also, another downside is that I didn’t find the Bamboo very durable. I’ve tried using the Wacom Bamboo pen with it, and I just can’t work with something that feels like a crayola in my hand. Procreate is a lovely programme but I’ll be damned if I’m going to fork out for a bluetooth pen for £100 or thereabouts, just so I can use it properly when there’s already a device that does everything I need without having to purchase peripherals. I do have a retina iPad, and have Procreate installed on it. If I really wanted to, I could export as a psd to Dropbox or email. As the files are saved as layered tiffs I can open them up in Sketchbook Pro desktop and just carrying on working on them, no pissing about required. I just plug it in, open it up and pull the files from the Autodesk folder.

On the Note tablet, because it’s an Android device I can just plug it into my PC and retrieve files without having to jump through hoops uploading things to ‘the cloud’ or Dropbox, or jail breaking or any of that malarky.
