ADJUSTING TIP FEEL AND DOUBLE-CLICK
To adjust the tip sensitivity of your pen, select the P
EN
tab. To create broad brush strokes or to click with a
light touch, use a soft tip setting. For maximum control while drawing thin lines, use a firm tip setting.
Customizes the amount of pressure
needed to click or draw.
With your screen cursor positioned over an empty area of
your control panel, press down on the tablet with your pen
tip to test the current tip feel setting. You can use the
C
URRENT
P
RESSURE
bar to determine how hard you must
press on the pen to reach maximum pressure.
Displays the tip F
dialog
box where you can further
customize the tip sensitivity.
Hints:
•
Use a soft T
IP
F
EEL
for a wider range of pressure values with most pressure-sensitive applications.
•
In some applications a soft pressure setting can make the pen overreact – any small press on the pen is
magnified on the screen. If you experience this, try a firmer T
IP
F
EEL
setting.
•
To make double-clicking easier, expand the tap area that accepts a double-click (the double-click distance).
Note:
A large double-click distance may cause a delay at the beginning of your brushstrokes in some drawing
applications. If you notice such effects, try setting a smaller double-click distance and using the side switch to
double-click.
Adjusts the size of the double-click
area. A larger setting makes
double-clicking easier.
Drag the slider to the O
FF
position if
you do not want double-click assist.
