[. . . ] When the pen is not in use, place your pen in the pen stand or lay it flat on your desk. Pen Tip The pen is activated as soon as it enters proximity, about 5 mm (0. 2 in), above the Interactive Pen Display screen. This allows you to position the screen cursor or use the DuoSwitch without touching the pen tip to the display screen. When pressure is applied to the pen tip, the tip switch is turned on and the pen simulates a mouse button click. The tip click pressure can be adjusted in the Wacom Tablet Control Panel. Please refer to the online Help for details. Eraser To use the eraser, hold the Grip Pen upside down. When the eraser is within proximity of the active area, the tablet reports the pen coordinates and the pressure applied to the eraser. The eraser can be used as an eraser or assigned to another function, depending on the application. The tablet distinguishes the tip switch from the eraser switch. Refer to the online Help for the pen settings. DuoSwitch The DuoSwitch is programmable, and can be used to perform the same click and double-click functions as the tip switch. Toggle the DuoSwitch in either direction to activate the upper or lower button functions. Please refer to the online Help for more information on switch settings. Note: If you do not care to use the side switch, you can remove it by following the directions in DuoSwitch Removal and Installation, on page 51. 30 USING A PEN Pointing and Selecting Move the Grip Pen above the Cintiq display screen to position the screen cursor. The cursor jumps to the location where you place the pen (absolute positioning). Press the pen tip on the display screen to make a selection. Note: If the screen cursor does not closely follow the pen tip, you will need to calibrate the Interactive Pen Display. (See Calibrating Cintiq on page 36. ) If the screen cursor does not jump to a position close to the pen tip when you place the pen on the display screen, then the tablet driver did not load yet. In this case, refer to the online Help for troubleshooting tips. (See Learning More About Cintiq on page 37 for information on accessing the online Help. ) Clicking Tap the display screen once with the pen tip, or touch the pen to the display screen with enough pressure to generate a mouse click. Double-Clicking Press the upper side switch (Windows) or lower side switch (Macintosh), or quickly tap the display screen twice in the same place with the pen tip. Double-clicking is easier when the pen is perpendicular to the tablet screen. Tip: You can make navigating with the pen easier by configuring Windows to select when the pen is over an icon and to launch the icon with a single click. To turn on this feature: Windows Me, 2000, or XP. Open a folder, select the Tools pull-down menu, and Folder Options. . . . From the General tab select the option Single-click to open an item (point to select). Open a folder, select the View pull-down menu, and Folder Options. . . .
