    I've been using Photoshop for years and I never knew about the space bar and panning trick you did, thank you 😊

    Wanted to find a short video to understand how to easily start using the iPad Pro with Photoshop. Thank you ! And the space bar and panning trick is also something I didn't know, and I've been using the software for years ! Thanks again !

    That’s great! Getting iPad Pro this week! If you decide to use it for a secondary screen, would you be able to take some of the panels from Photoshop or other Adobe apps and move them over to the iPad to reduce clutter?

    Hi Peggy, Great video if only I could get my things to work. I have a bit of an issue that I hope you can help.. Sidecar connects no problem, I am trying to edit a picture in photoshop using my pencil. I can select icons around the Picture on the iPad (in the sidebar and Touch Bar) using my pencil but I can't draw on the picture, the only thing I do to the picture on the iPad is pinch zoom with my fingers. I can only paint using my mouse, either as mirrored or separate display. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    If I bought a fast desktop and use side car with my iPad and Photoshop can I work at extremely fast speeds when using the heel brush? I love doing restorations on the iPad with the pencil but I keep running out of RAM. I’m wondering if this could be the solution. Please enlighten me so that I don’t go out and spend too much money that I shouldn’t

    At 1:55 you magically make photoshop fit onto the screen - how do you do that? I can only see the top left quarter on my iPad screen and can't figure out how to make it all fit on the screen. I do just have the 9 inch iPad so maybe my screen just isn't big enough to fit Photoshop on?

      Well I had the same plan... but DOOOONNNN’T at least not yet. Photoshop for the I pad has only like 10% of the tools as in the computer version :( mostly drawing tools but even those are not all complete (for example no symmetry...) I am very disappointed. And Adobe Illustrate works even worse.... very sad :( get a convertible....maybe they will change it some days, but for now its really not that cool ....sooooo much missing :(
