Promotions for Black Friday 2022Īstropad is also running an early promotion for Black Friday. The solution exists long before Apple’s Sidecar, which is limited to recent Macs and iPads. Apple hardware requirements specify macOS 10.11 El Capitan or later for Macs, iPadOS 12.1 or later for iPads, and 802.11n Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet connectivity.įor the record, Luna connects the iPad to the Mac or PC wirelessly. Updates apply to both the desktop app and the iPad app for each suite. Luna Display is also updated to version 5.2, to enable support for new iPad Pro models. New gestures are included for panning, zooming and rotating the 3D canvas, and new default shortcuts and custom hotkeys are also included for working with 3D applications. In the same update, Astropad Studio supports 3D sculpting in Blender and Zbrush. There are also custom gestures per app, so users can set different gestures for each app they use. In the latest edition, a new one-finger tap gesture can be configured, as well as double-tap shortcuts. ![]() The update also includes an expansion of Magic Gestures, where the Apple Pencil can be tapped and touched to interact with the software. ![]() Astropad believes this change now makes the iPad Pro a better replacement for Wacom’s products for digital artists. The American manufacturer has finally added one of the last features of the Wacom tablets that the iPad did not have on the iPad Pro M2. There is an interaction between the Apple Pencil and the iPad Pro screen, so maybe some day that could be used for hover detection, but today, not so far as I am aware.Mode support hover was a frequently requested feature, according to Astropad, but the company couldn’t do anything without Apple adding support itself. using the apple pencil (1st generation) because there is not a hover option. It uses some kind of resonance technology, yes. I tried Sidecar, Duet Display, Duet Display Pro and Astropad Regular. I know this is because Wacom use a magnetic field to track the pen position where IPad use a different tech. I'm not sure how it works in Duet Pro, but apparently in Astropad Studio you tell it you want hovering by using a gesture or hotkey.īut for those of us who are avoiding subscribing, lack of hover makes the iPad tablet solution less of a solution than a Wacom tablet or standard mouse. If, like me, you decided to pay once for the app and not to subscribe, you only have the basic version of Astropad and Duet and cannot enable hovering.Įven if you subscribe, cursor hover support doesn't work exactly like on a computer due to iOS limitations. You can do it, sort of, but the first question is: Are you subscribing to Astropad Studio or Duet Pro? Because hover support is only offered at that level. So you must look at the iPad screen to place the cursor beforehand. You have to touch the screen to see where your cursor is on your Mac display and tool action is done. Using the iPad with pencil and astropad app, you can’t do that as far I know. Then you press on the tablet and make the action that your selected tool is for. To be more specific: When you hoover your pen over a Wacom tablet you see where your cursor is on screen.
