Scribble to Erase

You can use the Pen Tool to erase your notes just like you how you might cross out mistakes with a pencil! All you have to do is scribble over the words or lines you want to erase and they magically disappear! It's a quick and easy way to clean up your notes and keep them looking neat and tidy.

1. Write a word or sentence.
2. If you notice something that you aren’t happy with, draw a tight zigzag over the strokes with your Pen Tool, or draw horizontal lines back and forth over the strokes.
3. All strokes underneath the scribbled area will be erased.

<aside> 💡 Keep in mind that any strokes outside of your initial stroke may not be erased, including dots for letters like "i". You can either scribble over these extra strokes afterwards or ensure they are covered by your initial stroke as in the examples below.

The dot above the “i” won’t be erased.

The dot above the “i” will be erased.

You can also draw horizontal lines back and forth on the strokes to erase them.
