Feature Request: iPad Magic Keyboard trackpad functionality with Apple Sidecar in Illustrator

[ADRIAN5CCC]

On an iPad Pro tablet, Illustrator works in sidecar mode, that is, as a touchpad extension screen.

The iPad pro has an expensive, high quality keboard stand, called Magic Keyboard.

That keyboard has a good trackpad, but it works only for zoom in sidecar mode, not for other gestures like translate or rotate.

The keyboard part works OK, which is good for the modifier key commands in AI.

Adobe should work with Apple to solve the problem of the functionality of the trackpad of the Magic Keyboard in sidecar mode.
