The Pen does not require a battery or a power cord to function. It senses the amount of pressure and tilt applied to the tip. The four basic
techniques for using the Pen are: pointing, clicking, double-clicking, and dragging.
NOTE:
When not using the Pen, place it on the magnetic retention which is on either side of the Canvas, or in the Pen and nib
holder, or on a flat surface.

Description
Positioning
To position the screen cursor, move the Pen slightly above the Dell
Canvas screen without touching the screen surface. To make a
selection, press the Pen tip on the display screen.
Clicking
Tap the display screen once with the Pen tip, or touch the Pen to
the Canvas screen with enough pressure to register a click.
Dragging
Select an object, then slide the Pen tip across the Canvas screen to
move the object.
Using the Top and Bottom barrel buttons
The buttons have customizable options. By default, the Top button
is set to Erase, and the lower barrel button is set to Barrel button.
You can customize the options in the
Canvas Pen
settings page.
Working with pressure sensitivity
To draw, ink, or write with pressure sensitivity, move the Pen along
the display screen surface while applying various amounts of
pressure downward on the tip of the Pen. Press hard for thick lines
or dense color. Press gently for thin lines or softer color.
Drawing with Tilt
Tilt can be used to control line shape and thickness in any
application that supports this feature.
Erasing
In applications that support this feature, the Pen eraser works like a
pencil eraser.
