Thanks for the info :) That does sound nice, but often I find myself using my computer with a drawing tablet in a weird position, which means getting to my keyboard can be a hassle. I can program some hot keys into my tablet but it’s limited. If it’s just one button to press to bring up menus that’s fine, but if it’s option+a key per function I need, I wouldn’t have enough buttons basically. I guess I’m looking for a user experience that would let me do all of my everyday functions using only a cursor or a mouse, and maybe 5-8 hotkey combinations/macros.
So I run a 2-1, and I like the 2-1/ tablet form factor (I actually just ordered this for my new machine) and will 100% be running PopOS on it. You don’t need any hot keys and its tablet mode is dreamy. I have a bit of criticism on the onscreen keyboard (it should be bigger and easier to get to).
You will need to learn the gestures (three fingers swipe up), but I found that easy enough to learn. I would actually say that the PopOS tablet mode is among the best, maybe even better than windows. I use it about an hour to two a day in this way.
Thanks! It’s a drawing tablet which uses a stylus, rather than touch or fingers, so it behaves more like a mouse. Would that mode still work?
So I’ve never used a drawing tablet before, but there is a tab in the settings panel for a ‘wacom tablet’ / ‘stylus’. You might want to check reviews specific to that use case. I’ve just never tried it that way and don’t know very much about stylus.
I do have a Wacom, sounds like I’ll need to try it out!
