any other artists having issues with procreate? i keep getting the screen moving all over by itself while im trying to draw. it thinks my palm is two fingers and is moving, panning, tilting, all on its own. also, the pencil does not always register my marks. sometimes i have to make the same stoke twice. Also, the pressure curve is really inconsistent, especially with tilt. i think the predictive logic is bad for people with good dexterity. maybe i just need more practice here with these features, but it feels really poor after using wacom cinitq's. i want to like this thing, its such a nice tablet, but the bugs kill the drawing experience.
This thing was outside the office, so I made an attempt. The line feature in procreate is great.
Be careful your non-drawing hand is not accidentally touching the screen someplace else. I have experienced a few instances of wonky behavior only to realize that my non-drawing thumb was touching the screen which was confusing Procreate. Once I shifted my thumbs position the software started acting normally.
The only issue I've had is the first touch to the screen sometimes has the wrong pressure, like 1000%. Usually I have a finger or something touching part of the screen in addition to my hand/palm holding the pencil. The result is a giant blotch at the start of the line. I suspect there is still some work to be done implementing Apple's api. I know the notes app is more responsive, and lines are cleaner.
I would love to see setting that I only want to make marks with the pencil tip, and never my finger. Fingers are just for multitouch, pan/zoom type stuff.
Check out the options for Procreate in the Settings app. There are several options for finger control. I have mine set for Gestures Only for fingers.
What I find really interesting about this is how much like real art media it is. Very nicely done, and it blows me away how well the iPP and pencil can mimic many kinds of artistic media.
i have that setting, but still cant use this thing. still thinks palm is fingers and moves all over. maybe mine is a bad unit.
Love this threat so much! Jelous of all the talent (and a little of all the apple pencils people have already received). Please keep all these wonderful images coming!

What line feature?
Draw a line and pause and hold at the end of the stroke. It will convert to a straight line.
And once it snaps it to a straight line, if you continue holding that point, you can drag it around, lengthen/shorten it, etc.
I totally missed that when I've been using it. I've been saying I wish it had a ruler for a while, so this is awesome!
I shared my first drawing with the Apple Pencil up above somewhere on page 5 I think (the elf)
Here's my second drawing with the Apple Pencil. Pencil work in Adobe Sketch and ink and color in Procreate.

Excellent work. Same comment about the elf. Truly great work though. Hoping to get better at drawing.I shared my first drawing with the Apple Pencil up above somewhere on page 5 I think (the elf)
