@davidrevoy (i'm trying to figure out a set up that lets me switch easily between drawing and typing, thus my particular interest there)

@kate On this setup, I type with the two forearms on the XpPenArtistPro24 display. It's 'ok' because it's not a super hot display tablet; but not 100% ideal. Still, I managed recently to make big morning of writing or code for the website in this position. When I have to do more keyboard intensive task for the full day; I just detach the keyboard, and push the display under the top one (and close it). Not ideal again, but so far, it works.

Wouldn't your tablet have the function to turn into a keyboard to type?

David Revoy

@NeadReport No, it's not a tablet with touch support, only stylus. 🙂 And maybe it's a good thing because I'm not really liking the touch keyboards in general: I'm slow with them, miss click a lot on keys. I still feel them to be a good workaround on small pad/tablet or phone; but I wouldn't edit an article with a keyboard like that or code a new page for my website with that.

@davidrevoy @NeadReport yeah, same essentially. Also I've never met an on screen keyboard layout that can handle heavy markdown usage, much less coding.

@kate It's a very cool piece of hardware, the universal Cintweak keyboard trays: cintweak.com/ , a life changer for keyboard shortcuts 👍 .
