Marker and Cursor Movement
Unlike a mouse controller, a tablet allows users to make drawings and place
pointers with absolute positioning. Absolute positioning means that the posi-
tion of the stylus on the tablet surface corresponds directly to the position of
the pointer on the screen. For example, if you place the stylus in the lower-left
corner of the tablet active area, the active pointer will “jump” to the lower-left
corner of the screen.
A complete list of commands for this controller is found in “Quick Reference
for Devices“ in the “Appendix” on page A-5. Marking is described in “Section
Five: Using Markers” starting on page 59.
