?What is the Sketch Stick used for

I had that question too. My art instructor states the sketch stick is a sketching pencis that has no wood; therefore, does not need any sharpening. It is a solid piece of graphite.

You could use a magnet to hold paper. Drawing would be fine. As long as you don't go too crazy with the paint, it should work. That's not what its made to do.

You can use a dull stick. The board uses pressure, so if you want to purchase a styles, sure. I would just use a ballpoint pin with the cap still on it. You don't need anything expensive, you can use your finger, but a finer point is better.

It will work as a point stylus, but probably not for smooth drawing. Lines tend to break: if you are drawing something static, that might be okay, but if you want to move it you end up with a bunch of stubs that have to be moved as a set, and a shape would not be resizable.

That depends on the software you are using, it's not a capability of this device. You can use adobe illustrator to live trace a drawing if you want or you can draw directly in illustrator making everything vector to begin with, but I don't think illustrator supports pressure sensitivity.

I myself use it for Draw Something, and although it sometimes skips, I have no other problems with it. Do not take off the disc tip. There is another Adonit that does not have a tip that might work for you

I'm not exactly sure. I use the tablet for art projects as a starter. It can be used in place of your mouse though, for better accuracy. For a while, I had a very old mouse that wasn't working too well, & was using the pen as the mouse (you just hover it over the tablet & press to click, & it has the right/left button functions on it as well). Wacom, Cintiq & Intuos tablets are very different, & this was/is my first one. I'm sorry I can't be of much help.

The stylus is useful for apps such as notability that have a zoom function for taking notes. However it or, for that matter any other stylus, has it's precision hampered by the squishy tip that is needed to prevent scratches. This stylus is great for simple creations like words with friends but don't expect to paint a Rembrandt with it.

You can either draw into the program on a sketch layer, or if you draw on paper you can scan it, either or is good. i recommend a great drawing tablet however.

Hi Grayrunner! Think of this device as a mouse, and you will better understand it. If you need to do drawing, I recommend a tablet designed just for that. This device is OUTSTANDING for operating Google Earth, as compared to a mouse or even arrow keys. I find that I can operate this instrument without looking at it, and maneuver easily and smoothly. Hope this helps! (th)

This really doesn't compare.. it's way better! My daugther can actual draw "real pictures" on this thing that look like she used a marker\pen. We often take pictures of the images she makes because the Tomy Megasketcher workes so well. If your looking for something that produces realistic images and is fairly responsive, this is your ticket! Other sketchers look like 8-bit old computer images compared to this.

Yes, it is pressure sensitive, which is probably why the tips wear out so quickly. No experience with Android or Autodesk's Sketchbook.

Tape. Your thumb. A large brick. A small child. Sorry for the sarcasm. Assuming you're an artist, get creative. I tape what I'm tracing to the back of my drawing paper.

The Inkling is designed for a quick mock up tool for designers. It is not designed for writing, or for taking notes. It will record your drawings, and once completed transfer the drawing to the Sketch Manger software.

Hi,Actually, this is a graphics tool. You can use this to control the cursor instead of your mouse. It works great with programs like Photoshop and illustrator. This particular tablet is a good combination of excellent performance and very reasonable price.

It is called a sketch fountain pen because it was designed to create art ("sketch") rather than writing. It has a nib that creates fine lines rather than a ball point for writing.

I am not Chinese, so how would I even know this?This is a trackpad (mouse/trackball alternative ) input device. NOT a 'Drawing Tablet" like a Wacom drawing tablet. You cannot use a separate stylus with a trackpad.That stated, if you use this trackpad with a good painting or drawing application and you can draw well with a trackpad using your fingers, then I can say that drawing Chinese characters using this trackpad is certainly just as possible as doing so using a laptop computer with a built-in trackpad.
