BASIC PEN OPERATIONS

Pointing and selecting: Move the pen slightly above the Cintiq display screen to position the screen cursor; you do not need to touch the tablet surface to move the screen cursor. The cursor jumps to the location where you place the pen. Press the pen tip on the display screen to make a selection.

Note: You must calibrate the pen display tablet to correctly align the screen cursor with the pen tip. (See Calibrating Cintiq on page 34.) If the screen cursor does not jump to a position close to the pen tip when you place the pen on the display screen, then the pen tablet driver may not be installed or is not loading. Install the pen tablet driver software if necessary. Otherwise, refer to Troubleshooting, beginning on page 41.

Clicking: Tap the display screen once with the pen tip, or touch the pen to the display screen with enough pressure to register a click.

Windows tip: To make navigating with the pen easier, configure Windows to select when the pen is over an icon and to launch the icon with a single click. To turn on this feature, first open a folder.

For Windows Vista, from the ORGANIZE pull-down menu choose FOLDER AND SEARCH

OPTIONS. From the GENERAL tab select SINGLE-CLICK TO OPEN AN ITEM (POINT TO SELECT).

For other Windows versions, from the TOOLS pull-down menu choose FOLDER OPTIONS....

From the GENERAL tab select SINGLE-CLICK TO OPEN AN ITEM (POINT TO SELECT).

Double-clicking:Press the upper side switch, or quickly tap the display screen twice in the same place with the pen tip. Double-clicking is easier when the pen is perpendicular to the tablet screen. To fine-tune the double-click area, refer to the electronic Software User’s Manual.

Dragging: Select an object, then slide the pen tip across the display screen to move the object.
