CUSTOMIZING

After you master the basics of using your pen on the DTF-720 interactive pen display, you may 
want to customize the way the pen works.  The Pen Tablet control panel makes it easy to customize the 
DTF-720 and pen.

OPENING THE CONTROL PANEL

To open the control panel, use the DTF-720 pen on the pen display tablet:

Windows.

  Click on the Windows 

START

 button and choose A

 and choose the P

 from either the Dock, the Apple menu, or from the 

A

 folder.  Then click on the P

EN

 T

ABLET

 icon.

After opening the control panel, see 

Control panel overview

 on page 20.

Notes:

 

For Windows Vista, XP, and Macintosh OS X, user-specific preferences are supported.  After logging in, each 
user can customize their personal settings in the Pen Tablet control panel.  Switching to another user will 
automatically load the settings for that user.

When more than one Wacom tablet is installed on a single computer, any changes made in the Pen Tablet 
control panel will be applied only to the tablet that was last used before opening the control panel.
