Pen input
The pen works only on the active area of the tablet.
Wherever you place the pen on the tablet, the screen pointer will jump to the corresponding point on the screen. The screen pointer indicates pen position, and follows the movement of the pen across the tablet surface.
Learn about the pen experience with Bamboo.
Note: The active area is a mapped representation of your computer screen(s). By default it uses the entire screen or all screens if you have multiple displays. You can customize the mapping relationship for pen input by setting the tablet mapping.
Tablet active area
The area of your Bamboo tablet that senses touch or pen input.
For tablet models that support both pen and touch input, touch is ignored 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 enable touch input.
