Abstract: Some embodiments described in this disclosure are directed to displaying additional controls and/or information when an input device such as a stylus is hovering over a user interface displayed by an electronic device. Some embodiments described in this disclosure are directed to providing feedback about the pose of an input device relative to a surface. Some embodiments of the disclosure are directed to performing contextual actions in response to input provided from an input device. Some embodiments of the disclosure are directed to providing handwritten input for conversion into font-based text using an input device.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a plurality of strokes for compositing on a content item and composing each stroke of the plurality of strokes into a respective stroke layer based on a blend mode associated with the respective stroke. The method further includes compositing the stroke layers composed from the plurality of strokes into a single layer and compositing the single layer on the content item.

Abstract: Aspects of subject technology provide systems and methods for electronic drawing with handwriting recognition. An electronic device may include one or more processors configured to receive a modification input to an object rendered on a display, and to perform a first re-rendering of the object on the display based on the modification input. The one or more processors may further be configured to generate at least one polygon-based representation of the object based on the modification input, and to perform, based on the at least one polygon-based representation, a second re-rendering of the object on the display.
