Radial Menu. A hierarchical menu (in radial format). Each level of the menu consists of eight menu slices
which may contain various features and options to choose from. You can customize the buttons of your
Intuos4 tools or tablet to display this menu.
Screen cursor. The pointer on the display screen. Screen cursors come in different shapes (such as an
I-beam, arrow, or box), depending on which application you are running.
Tablet PC Input Panel (TIP). The Microsoft Windows Tablet PC Input Panel enables you to use your Intuos4
pen to create handwritten notes or work with an on-screen keyboard. The Input Panel dynamically
converts your handwriting to text. Information you create can then be inserted into other documents,
spreadsheets, or illustrations. See
pen and digital ink capabilities in Windows .
Tilt sensitive. A quality of the Intuos4 pen tip and eraser that senses the amount of tilt between the
tool and tablet. This is used to create natural-looking pen, brush, and eraser strokes in applications that
are tilt sensitive.
Tool ID. A unique serial number in each Intuos4 tool. Some graphics applications, such as Corel Painter,
recognize Tool IDs and allow you to assign different settings and brushes to every Intuos4 tool (e.g., two
Grip Pens). Switching between the settings and brushes then becomes as easy as switching between the
two pens.
Touch Ring. The customizable control ring located on your professional pen tablet.
Transceiver. A radio device capable of both transmitting and receiving information.
USB. Universal Serial Bus. A hardware interface standard for connecting computer peripheral devices.
USB ports support hot-plugging, which allows you to disconnect a USB device without turning off your
computer.
Wintab. An interface standard used by Windows applications for receiving tablet information.
Intuos4 supports all Wintab-compatible applications under Windows.
