Nib. The replaceable pen tip.

Pairing. A method of creating a virtual cable link between two Bluetooth devices.

Pen mode. A method of positioning the screen cursor. Wherever you place your Graphire tool on the tablet, the screen cursor will jump to the same corresponding point on the screen. This is known as absolute positioning, and is the default setting for the Graphire pen. Also, PEN MODE allows you to quickly position the screen cursor without having to ﬁrst ﬁnd it and then move it across the desktop. See also mouse mode.

Pixel. The smallest unit of measure on your display screen.

Pop-up Menu. A window that displays a list of keystroke functions and other actions you can perform. You can customize the buttons of your Graphire tools to display this menu.

Pressure sensitive. A quality of the Graphire pen tip and eraser that senses the amount of pressure being applied. This is used to create natural-looking pen, brush, and eraser strokes in applications that are pressure sensitive.

Pressure-sensitive application. Any application that supports pressure-sensitive input.

Proximity. The height above the tablet active area where the Graphire tools are detected. Refer also to the pointing section.

Screen cursor. The pointer on the display screen. Screen cursors come in different shapes (such as an I-beam, arrow, or box), depending on which application you are running.

Tablet PC Input Panel (TIP). The Microsoft Windows Vista Tablet PC Input Panel enables you to use your Graphire pen to create handwritten notes or work with an on-screen keyboard. The Input Panel dynamically converts your handwriting to text. The information you create can then be inserted into other documents, spreadsheets, or illustrations. See also pen and digital ink capabilities in Windows Vista.

Transceiver. A radio device capable of both transmitting and receiving information.

USB. Universal Serial Bus. A hardware interface standard for connecting computer peripheral devices. USB ports support hot-plugging, which allows you to connect or disconnect a USB device without turning off your computer.
