    I’ve watched so many videos on Procreate now, and I’m constantly amazed that there’s ANOTHER “trick!” I knew that I could hold my pencil down and it would make a straight line, and I knew that if I put my finger down while still on the line I could move it in 15 degree increments. BUT I didn’t know I could form a round circle by putting my finger down. AND, I love that I can hook up to my computer screen! I read that there was some kind app that is supposed to let you work on your iPad while using your computer monitor to see a large version, but Procreate makes this capable for itself!

    Hi Ian, Great video, thank you for the tips! I have a question that you might be able to help me with. I want to use my ipad as a light box to trace over a sketch using tracing paper but its difficult with the touch screen as it keeps moving. I found out that you can freeze the older models by pressing the home button 3 times but with the newer models you can't do this as there is no home button. Can you help? I am huge fan of your work by the way! love your podcasts and watching your videos, you have inspired me massively! thank you! :)

    • @IanBarnard
      @IanBarnard  3 года назад +1

      I didn't know you could freeze the screen so that's new to me. There is an app called Lightbox Trace which enables you to lock the screen while tracing.

    • @lucywaitt3173
      @lucywaitt3173 3 года назад

      @@IanBarnard Hi Ian, thank you for your reply, I wasn't expecting one so quickly so thank you for that :) Sorry, I wasn't very clear in my explanation, what I meant was to trace off an image I have already created on my ipad, but I figured it out!... well my husband did. You can temporarily freeze the screen by pressing the power button 3 times, then clicking 'guided access'. To come out do the same, enter your pin and click done! Its such a useful tool. I had previous sketches in procreate that I then wanted to watercolour so I turned up the brightness to max, closed the curtains and was able to trace straight onto thick watercolour paper with out the image moving about. So much quicker and easier than printing the sketch out first and then using a light box. I like the idea of the app you recommended too! It'll be useful for tracing over an existing image or photo when you don't have a lightbox to hand. Thanks again and looking forward to more videos from you! :)

    You can also run your iPad through QuickTime to your Mac. Just open QuickTime, with your iPad connected to the computer through your normal USB connection, then create a new movie and as a source, you can now pick your iPad as if it’s an external camera, but it’ll show your screen instead... now you can have that iPad view as a floating window on your computer and be able to multitask. You can resize the window too. I’ve been using Procreate since the iPad2. Yes, I’m getting old lol!
