You can now quickly draw a scribble over your ink to erase the ink behind it.

Erase ink with the Scratch-out gesture Using your pen tool, you can scratch out yourink(letters, words, or drawings) to erase them. This new gesture provides an even faster way to delete ink while staying in the flow! How it works With a pen tool selected, quickly draw a scribble (loopy or zig-zaggy stroke)over the ink you want to erase and notice that the ink behind it is removed.
