使い方がわからない

写真や画像を出した後、消す方法の説明がなくてこまりました。それが分かればとても使いやすいアプリだと思うのですが…画像や写真の消し方教えてほしいです。

助かりました!

マジで便利です!画像を固定してる機能があって助かりました!

うーん🤔

使いやすさ星5
使いやすいのですが、光量が足りず難しい絵を描きたい人にはお勧めしません。iPadなので光量はしょうがないんですけどね
簡単な絵を描きたい人にはかなりオススメです。
かなり上から目線でしたすみません。

A mini scalable light box ... perfect

I had tried all manner of ideas to use the ipad as a light box

None really overcame the issue of touch unless I used guided access with a very long winded prep ... even tried thin Perspex that stopped the touch screen it moves issue but the image quickly went out of focus

Came across this app almost by chance and persistence and its very simple and quick to use

Just have the photos you taken on the ipad first

It’s great for a cartoonist who just wants to change the size of a characters head etc quickly

The icon picture conveys just how to use your tracing paper

Thank you easily worth the price
