Hi guys, never worked with a tablet before, but here’s where i’d like to know if it would work for me…?
I’m in the luminous signs business.
Most of my work consists of taking photos of buildings,
creating a luminous sign to the customer’s specs,
and supplying that customer with a picture of the sign on his building before it’s even built…
One of the aspect that takes a lot of time is when i do a site check, and i’ve been doing a lot lately…lol.
and i have to send back pictures with dimensions of all elevations and windows, etc.
I have to use the mouse and draw lines to show where my measurements starts and ends, and write the dimensions over these lines, etc.
I was thinking that it might be nice to work with a pen instead of a mouse and keyboard all the time.
My question is, is it easy to draw a straight line with those tablets or are they made to draw mostly freehand ?
a picture of a building with 25 windows and crooked lines around all those windows wouldn’t look too nice, but i figured maybe with one of those pads, i could just make 2 dots and click on a button and a straight line would appear between the dots…. or something like that…
Is that how it works, or am i better to do it like i’m doing right now ?
Besides that, i never do any pictures by hand, i’m not an artist.
thanx for your input.
Richard.
