Use your pen

Use your pen to interact with your device. This includes drawing, writing, or moving items, and activating actions that
you assign to pen buttons.
Tip:
Hold the pen as you would normally hold a pen or pencil. Adjust your grip so that you can
press any pen buttons easily with your thumb (recommended) or index finger without
accidentally pressing it.
Tip:
To make it easier to access tools in applications like Adobe Photoshop, assign
modifiers, such as Alt and Ctrl, to your pen buttons so that you do not have to use your
keyboard keys.
