Simulating tablet size

Steps

  • Find the dimensions of the device and the active area. These dimensions are usually 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 that limit your reach to other items on the desk?
