Finger or Stylus? How to get the most out of Catchbook Catchbook is designed for both finger and stylus, but each has pros & cons Fingers Natural and intuitive Won t lose them (hopefully!) Cannot see underneath them, cannot sharpen them Styluses Also natural and intuitive May lose them Can see underneath them More control and precision We recommend a stylus - even a passive stylus gives better control than a finger Page 13
Form Factor How to get the most out of Catchbook The size difference between a tablet and a phone is quite significant leading to different utility Tablet Form factor is large enough that you can settle in and draw up designs for an entire project with multiple pages and binders Stylus greatly enhances the experience Phone Form factor is so much smaller, you will likely use Catchbook differently even though it is exactly the same app! Load it with drawings created on a tablet for on-the-go work View and make small edits (tip: turn stylus mode on for view only ) Add pictures on-site Draw small sketches to figure out angles and placements Very Large Form Factor Catchbook is like a white board on the Surface Hub Page 14
Drawing Styles How to get the most out of Catchbook Draw and edit as you go Very common approach Work with final ink the whole time Draw and edit afterwards Pencil sketch, then final ink (artists) Freehand a rough sketch Turn on drawing recognition and ink over to create the final drawing Page 15
