I am also a SetApp subscriber, so why not. To my pleasant surprise, because of this forum post I remembered that I did like the Paste shelf look. These were the apps that I had already paid for and I thought since they all synced just as slow, it was an iCloud issue. Unfortunately, Copied, Yoink, and even the native Files App synced too slowly to do this on the fly. This could give me a bit of space so that I don’t have to use slide over on the whiteboard ipad. What if I used a shelf app to “transfer” the images, PDFs, etc from my “notes” ipad to my “whiteboard” iPad? I thought, wow.

So I am constantly swiping in and away the slide-over so that I have plenty of space to write and manipulate.Ī couple of weeks ago, when I was trying out some outliner software and couldn’t fit it well in the slide-over view, I had an idea: Unfortunately, even though I have the 12.9 inch ipad, there is not much room left over wether I use split view or slide-over to view my notes, etc. Ever since iPadOS and the multiple slide-over apps feature, I have been able to have my notes and resources (images, etc) in two separate slide-overs, and I click a DEVONthink link in my notes to bring me to a specific image that I can then drag-and-drop in. I have traditionally used slide-over on the “whiteboard” ipad to look at notes and resources, particularly since I can drag-and-drop images onto the whiteboard to present to students. I have a weird use case that may be an interesting point for this discussion - I use two iPads when I teach: one for a digital white board projected for students, and another for notes, resources, etc.
