Simulating tablet size

Steps

• Find the dimensions of the device and the active area (the dimensions will be published online)

• Cut out a piece of cardboard to the size of the tablet

• Draw a rectangle on it to represent the active area

• Try drawing on it

Example

Things to test

• Does the active area give you enough space to draw?

• How will you place the tablet relative to your keyboard?

• Does it fit on your desk?

• Especially for pen displays, hold it about half an arm's length away. How much does this prevent you from reaching other items on the desk?
