Finger and Apple Pencil
Everything works with a finger. Apple Pencil adds a few shortcuts.
With a finger
- Undo: tap with two fingers, or use the Undo arrow at the top right. Redo is the button beside it.
- In a sketch: drag with two fingers to pan and pinch to zoom. Press and hold to get a crosshair above your finger for precise placing.
- In 3D: drag with one finger to turn the part, two fingers to pan, and pinch to zoom. Double-tap with two fingers to fit the part to the screen.

- Quick line: with no tool picked, draw a stroke and you get one straight line from where you started to where you lifted.
- Scribble to erase: zig-zag over a line to delete it. One undo brings it back.
- Hover: hold the tip just above the screen to see where it will snap before you touch down.
- Squeeze (Apple Pencil Pro): opens the drawing tools right at the tip.
- Double-tap: confirms, like pressing Enter.
Squeeze and double-tap follow your iPad's Apple Pencil settings.
