![]() Intuos Pro tablets, as well as some other tablet models, have touch functionality. You can kind of play with it and see what works best for you. Because I’m used to drawing and painting, I like a big canvas. Some people prefer to instead only use a small portion of their tablet’s surface. You can set it so that the full width of your tablet correlates to your screen, - so, for example, when you move your pen to the top of your tablet your cursor will move move to the top of your screen. Mapping adjusts how the surface of your tablet correlates to your computer’s display. I prefer to just use the eraser or masking in Photoshop, as opposed to actually using this eraser, but you can set up how it feels and what the pressure would be, similar to the way the brush pressure is set up, if you prefer to use it like that. The eraser is literally like you’re using a pencil, and you just turn it around and erase. EraserĪfter we have gone to the pen we’re going to set up the eraser, if your pen has one. There’s many different things you can set up for both of these, so you can choose what works best for your own workflow. ![]() You can set it up to be a keyboard command, you can do it to be a tablet setting, a navigation, or you can even have it open up an application. You, however, can set this up to be whatever you want. I set up the back one to double click, so instead of tapping the pen twice I can just click that button. The way I have it set up is just like a mouse - I use the front button as my right click. ![]() Most Wacom pens have two buttons, a front and a back. If you want it to be more calligraphic, then that would be the higher setting. Some prefer it higher, I like it at the normal setting so it is more intuitive. If you set this to high, it will change dramatically when you tit. When you are working with a brush in Photoshop for example, a different stroke is created when you tilt your pen (Access this in Photoshop by going to Window > Brush Settings > Pen Tilt). Tilt sensitivityĪfter you set that up, you are going to set up the Tilt Sensitivity. Again, I prefer to have it in the middle. If you are somebody who has a greater distance between your clicks, like most people, you want to have it on large so it will detect it when you double click. If you set it to “off,” that means that when you double click you’re going to be doing it in a very precise location. Double click distance is set up to detect when you are double clicking. But with a Wacom tablet, sometimes you’ll move a little bit from the exact spot between clicks. When you are using a mouse and you double click, it’s in one location, so the computer will know that you are double clicking. Double click distanceĪfter you set up the tip feel, we’re going to go to the mouse double click distance. When I go to make a brush stroke in Photoshop, it’s not going to be super soft and it’s not going to be super firm. What I prefer is something in the middle. ![]() So for doing brush settings, in order to make a stroke, it takes a lot more pressure and it’s not super sensitive. If we were to put this all the way at firm, you have to press down much harder for that input to register. So, for example when you have it on soft setting, it will be super sensitive when you press down on it. This is about the pressure that you have to put down onto the pen for the computer to register the input. Make sure that under “Tools,” the pen you’re using is selected, like in the screenshot above.
