USING YOUR BAMBOO

If you are new to using Bamboo, read the following sections.

THE TOUCH EXPERIENCE WITH BAMBOO

Bamboo is designed to enhance the way you work. Touch input enables you to interact with a computer using only your fingertips on the Bamboo tablet.

First learn the basic actions to navigate and perform typical mouse operations. Then learn the gestural movements to control other functions such as scrolling, zooming, and rotating.

Touch input is activated whenever you touch the tablet’s active area.

•One- and two-finger input only is recognized by the tablet. When not actively working with touch, you can rest your fingers and palm on the tablet. Touch data will not be sent when you touch the tablet active area with more than two fingers.

•When using two-finger input methods, you can generally position your fingers as far apart as you find comfortable. However, be aware that touching the tablet with your fingers set too closely together may be interpreted as coming from a single finger, or confused with which finger initiated or performed an action or gesture.

•As you learn the different input methods, experiment with what works best for you. Take care to prevent accidental touch input. For example, if your small finger or the palm of your hand touches the active area of the tablet while you are navigating or performing a touch action, then your input may be interrupted or you may trigger an unanticipated right-click.

Note: For tablet models that support both pen and touch input, the pen disengages touch input whenever the pen tip or eraser is within the tablet proximity range. Lift the pen and your hand away from the tablet active area to re-enable touch input.
