FORCE PROPORTIONS

50

In the MAPPING tab, check or uncheck the FORCE PROPORTIONS box to determine the tablet to screen mapping relationship.

When FORCE PROPORTIONS is unchecked, the correct scale or proportions are not maintained. The selected tablet area is mapped to the selected display area. Drawing a circle on the tablet may create an ellipse on the display screen. This is the default setting for all tools.

When FORCE PROPORTIONS is checked, the correct vertical and horizontal proportions are maintained. Drawing a circle on the tablet results in a circle on the display screen. Depending on your settings, some portions of the tablet active area may no longer be usable when this option is selected.

Note: Although Intuos4 is optimized for use with 16 : 10 aspect ratio displays, the default settings automatically adjust for use with other aspect ratio displays.

TABLET AREA

In the MAPPING tab, use the TABLET AREA options to define the tablet area that will be mapped to the screen area:

FULL

The entire active area of the tablet is mapped. This is the default setting.

PORTION...

Selecting PORTION... brings up the PORTION OF TABLET dialog box.

Choose a method for defining a portion of the tablet:

Drag corners of the foreground graphic to select the tablet area that will be mapped to your selected screen area.

Select the CLICK TO DEFINE TABLET AREA button and use your tool on the tablet to select the tablet area. Be sure to follow any MESSAGE prompts.

Enter coordinate values.
