Hi Everbody, i know some of you badly want Rebelle on the iPad ;-). Until, this is happens, try "EasyCanvas". "EasyCanvas" is an App like Astropad or DuetDisplay. it works on PC and Macs, but i can only tell you how it works on PC. You get "EasyCanvas" on the Appstore. It will cost you 12,99 €, its a one buy fee. It has "NO" Subscription Model ;-). The beauty of this is ;-) You have your (big) PC Display too, your Mouse and PC Keyboard works also and so your Shortcut Keys. And the best thing last, you Paint with the Apple Pencil in Rebelle. [img]https://www.escapemotions.com/community/uploads/posts/2019/10/iPad-Rebelle-1.png[/img] Rebelle via EasyCanvas on iPad Pro 2017 My tech Specs are: Middle power gaming PC with Window 8.1 CPU: Intel Xeon CPU E3-1230 V3, 4 Cores, 3.30 GHz Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 iPad Pro 2017 with an 12,5 inch Display and Apple Pencil 1 My iPad and my PC are connected with a long USB to Lightning Cable, it is 200 cm (78 inch) long. There are no remarkeable Lags. How its gonna work ? Beside the "EasyCanvas" iPad App you need also an Program on your PC, which you can Download for free from the EasyCanvas Website. Here is the Link: [URL]http://www.easynlight.com/en/easycanvas/[/URL] To paint on your iPad in Rebelle the following Steps are needed. - Install the EasyCanvas PC Program on your PC. - Connect your PC to the Internet. Only the PC need an Internet connection. - Start the Program: "ezcvs_agent.exe" on your PC. - Start the "EasyCanvas" App on your iPad. - Connect your Lightning to USB Cable to your iPad Lightning Connection and the USB-Side to your PC. - Now, you should see your PC Desktop on your iPad. - Start Rebelle. - In Rebelle go to Preferences / Tablet / set your Tablet Connection to WinTab Services. You have to do this, so the pressur sensivity of your Apple Pencil will work in Rebelle. - Now you can Paint in Rebelle with your iPad. - One Minor Note, you may have to pair your Pencil to your iPad. If so then unplug the Lightning Cable plugin your Pencil, pair it, and than replug the Lightning Cable. EasyCanvas works with other Paintprograms too. If pressure sensivity not work. Then try different Tablet Settings in your Paint Program. Pressure senvity in Rebelle works with "WinTab Services" in ClipStudio Paint you have to set it to "Tablet-PC" Another Note. If you paint with the Apple Pencil, touch gestures to zoom or turn the Canvas are not directly possible, only over EasyCanvas Menü. But you can always zoom with your PC Mouse and your PC Keyboard works too. Hope you find this Tipp usefull, see you ;-) gottfried

Hi zsolt67 If you read the EasyCanvas Website you need an Cable (e.g Lightning to USB) But i think thats not a big Problem. As i wrote my cable is 200 cm (78 inch) long an there is no remarkeable lags. So you have much Room to move your iPad. I find it really fluent. My ipad is connected via an Lighting to UBS cable with my PC and on the PC Side you must also connected to the Internet. My Internet Connection is over LAN. I think the Internet connection is mainly for copyright things. All Data transfair between PC and Ipad goes over this Lightning-USB Cable. I was sceptical first but i was suprised how well it works. My PC-Specs are in the Post above. And the most importand Part for me was, there is no Subscription. Only a one time fee. And for 12 $ i dont think there is something to complain about it. Hope this helps, have a nice day 2dpainter

Hi [USER=2423]@flatcap[/USER], great that it works for you @inkapades, yes it is great, the Rebells pressure sensitivity works very well and sensitiv with the apple pencil i like it very much. I must say that i own a cintiq 16 which is not bad but found the apple Pencil much better than the wacom pencil. Apart from Rebelle you can use all your pc painting programs but in some programs you must try which Tablet Settings work. In my case only by 2 or 3 programs most other works from start on. What i also like to recommend for Rebelle is a little Tool call LazyNezumi Look at my Post here: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.escapemotions.com/community/forum/t/526/extend-rebelle-with-lazy-nezumi[/URL] greetings 2dpainter

Hi, i tried to do the settings as you guys explained, i still can't paint with my apple pencil, easy canvas does show the screen and i can move around and click things with my finger, but not with the pencil. The pencil is conected to the ipad so i don't know what the issue might be...

Does canvas tilt work via the ipad?

I dont know. But i think Pen tilt works. As far as i know, you can try EasyCanvas for a few Days, 14 Days i think. So maybe you can figure this out by your self. Cant help, because of a new PC i have EasyCanvas not yet installed.

Turning my iPad into a wirelesess graphic tablet feels magical! But how to turn on tilt support?

As I wrote in a previous post. I don't use EasyCanvas or Rebelle since I bought a new computer. Since I do mostly vector graphics at the moment. So I can't help you with your question. By the way, the EasyCanvas version I descriped here is not wireless. The wireless version of EasyCanvas is only available with a subscription which I do not like and therefore do not use.

I have followed the instructions for using EasyCanvas on iPad & PC but after installing the program on my PC the ezcvs_agent.exe file is not there so I can't start the program. Please advise as to what I may have done wrong. thanks Jenny

[USER=190721]@JenD44[/USER] As I wrote previous posts. I don't use EasyCanvas or Rebelle at the Moment. So it may be better to ask the "EasyCanvas" Support to help you.

Unfortunately EasyCanvas support doesn't appear to be there anymore. Thanks, anyway.
