I installed macOS Catalina on my iMac and running iPadOS Beta 2 on my iPad Pro 11". I want to use the "Wacom" mode on my iPad via Sidecar. How can I do this? I installed Adobe Illustrator on macOS Catalina. Do I need to use my iPad as a Secondary Display? How can I draw on my iPad and see it on the computer just like this photo from Apple? Or does Adobe have to update Illustrator to support this?

Found the solution! In Illustrator you go to Window > New Window. This duplicates your workspace to a new window which you can drag to your external screen or iPad. And when you draw on that window it also gets drawn on the mainscreen. :)

Click to expand...

You could also just Mirror the display in the Airplay menu :)
