After trying out the free version for a while, I could see this product had all kinds of advantages and I went ahead bought the paid version from PlayStore.
There is one activity I plan to be doing a lot and I must master the best way of doing it: I am a pianist whose paper scores are covered with messy fingerings written in, often with an ugly blotch covering up the finger notation that I disagreed with.
Here's what I have learned to do so far, but it is terribly clumsy and haphazard: I set the opacity to 100 and annotation color to white (if it's a line) or to white border and white interior (if it's a shape). That becomes my "eraser" that I so wish the eraser tool would be. Using a shape would be best except for the fact that since everything is white, I cannot see where I am actually placing the shape. Creating a wide line and scrubbing back and forth over what needs to be obliterated is a little more sure except that getting the last few black fragments obscured is tedious.
This early experience suggests to me that instead of planning to get a Chromebook and active stylus that play well together I may need to do my annotation work on a different setup, modifying my PDF files to the way I want them before importing them.
BUT, honestly, I can't believe I am not missing something and that people are regularly doing this all within MobileSheets, and have figured out how to do it easily.
Surprisingly I tried searching several different ways and came up with nothing that seemed to apply here in the forums. Please get me pointed right.
