Can the Apple Pencil and Trackpad 2 be used as a Table or only on the screen

I just bought the iPad Pro 11” 2020 generation 2 and the TracPad 2 and can’t find any info if the Apple Pencil 2 will work with the TracPad 2 as it does on the screen. I worked with Wacom Tablets for 13years and wondering if the Apple Pencil 2 can work in the same way?

The Apple Pencil is designed to interact with iPad specific screen hardware. Whilst you simultaneously use both the Pencil and Magic Trackpad with iPad, the Pencil does not provide any input capability via the Trackpad.


I hope this clarification is helpful.
