CUSTOMIZING PEN BUTTONS

Select the PEN tab to change the functions assigned to the side switches and tip of your pen.

Double-click here to change the function assigned to the pen tip. The tip must be set to CLICK in order to draw in most graphics applications.

You can change the SIDE SWITCH MODE to fit the way you like the pen to work when using click functions.

To access the SIDE SWITCH MODE settings, click on the OPTIONS... button at the bottom of the control panel. In the OPTIONS dialog box:

•Select HOVER CLICK to perform click functions without touching the pen tip to the Cintiq’s screen surface.

•Select CLICK & TAP and press the side switch while touching the pen tip to the pen screen surface in order to perform a click function. CLICK & TAP enables the precise placement of your click functions, and is the default setting for Tablet PCs.

•Choose RIGHT or LEFT for right-handed or left- handed orientation.

•Check the Pressure Compatibility box as needed for use with older applications that support only 1024 pressure levels.

Drag to increase or decrease TILT

SENSITIVITY. Test the new setting in an application that supports tilt.

The tilt setting applies to both the tip and eraser of your tool. Tilt is direction sensitive and can be used in some applications to control brush orientation or other characteristics.

When you bring the pen tip within

5 mm (0.20 inch) of the screen surface without touching the screen and press the upper or lower side switch, the selected function occurs.

Tip: To make double-clicking easier, set the side switch to double- click automatically by selecting

DOUBLE CLICK.
