Touch doesn't work #20

Hi! First I'd like to start with saying "thank you" for your great work.

I can confirm that the latest version of patch (ver.10) partly works on my iPad Pro 12.9-inch 2nd Gen. connected through cable with my MacBook Pro 15-inch (Mid 2014) / macOS Catalina 10.15.1 Beta (19B77a). By "partly works" I mean that the screen picture is being transferred to the iPad, Sidebar buttons work on iPad screen but the remaining area of iPad's screen (including Touch Bar) does not react to touch. So I can only use cursor. There is also some flickering (although I use original Apple lightning cable).

This is very limiting for me as my desired use case for SideCar is actually to be able to use Apple Pencil while working with Adobe apps.

Is there any known workaround to fix it?

Sidecar doesn't support finger touch; only supports touch using Apple Pencil.

Thank you for your response. I probably wasn't precise enough - I doesn't work with Apple Pencil either.
