Editing MacOS picture using Markup on iPad / iPhone

I can edit a picture on the iPad which I have open on MacOS.

Bluetooth is on.

However When I draw on the iPad, the changes are not reflected on the MacBook Pro.

Any ideas, please? (This is an original pencil and the original iPad).

MacBook Pro 15", macOS 10.15

Can’t take screenshots with Apple Pencil on iPad Pro I can’t take a screenshot with my Apple Pencil on my iPad Pro using the instructions that are all over the Internet. I swipe from the bottom corner to the middle of the screen, and all that happens is the screen scrolls. I have to resort to pushing the two buttons to take the screenshot, and then I’m able to edit with the pencil. Did I somehow turn this function off? Are there any troubleshooting steps that I should try to isolate the problem? It seems too simple of a function to screw up, but I won’t rule out that possibility! I did check Pencil Gestures in Settings. It’s enabled. I don’t know where else to look. Thanks!
