There are two blue touch targets to move the virtual ruler in any direction once youвЂ™re happy with the rulerвЂ™s positioning, just draw along the ruler edge with your other hand. Touch Slide lets you add straight lines in your Sketch compositions.ДЇor those without access to AdobeвЂ™s new hardware, Sketch also offers a digital companion in the form of Touch Slide. AdobeвЂ™s Slide ruler doesnвЂ™t have an official pairing ritual, but instead seems to magically pair and unpair with the device whenever itвЂ™s touching or removed from the iPad screen. Once you do that, you can customize your stylusвЂ™s colored top and see its battery life, right from the app. And the pairing is seamless-much like Paper, all you have to do is tap the stylus nib to the Connection Center screen to connect your device. Of course, SketchвЂ™s big draw (no pun intended) is its pairing with AdobeвЂ™s new Ink and Slide stylus tools. There are several video tutorials on Sketch and LineвЂ™s Multi-Touch gestures. One word of warning: If youвЂ™re using the Ink stylus and enable palm rejection, these gestures become rather difficult to perform. You can swipe two fingers to the left or right to undo or redo use three fingers along the bottom of the screen to scrub through your history and a use two finger tap and hold to pan and zoom around your canvas. Sketch and Line both offer great Multi-Touch gestures for undo, redo, scrubbing, and panning theyвЂ™re not quite what you may have used in previous drawing programs, but Adobe offers quick video tutorials in the app to get you comfortable. (You get 2GB with your Adobe ID you can add an additional 20GB of storage space for $2/month.) AdobeвЂ™s Behance portfolio network is built into the app so that you can share drafts and final products with your followers in addition, you can send and pull drawings from your Creative Cloud storage any time youвЂ™re connected to a network. But theyвЂ™re all very close, and the appвЂ™s Creative Cloud integration gives it an extra boost for Adobe loyalists. The digital tools are all very well thought-out renderings, though they still donвЂ™t quite surpass the bar that Paper set last year.

Sketch reminds me of a cleaner, more Adobe-ified version of FiftyThreeвЂ™s Paper app.
