POINTING
The Graphire pen positions the pointer (or cursor) on your screen. You can position the screen cursor two
different ways, like a pen (P
EN M ODE ) or like a mouse (M OUSE M ODE ).
• In P EN M ODE , the tablet active area is a mapped representation of your computer screen; wherever you
place the pen on the tablet, the screen cursor will jump to the corresponding point on the screen. This is
the default setting for the pen.
• In M OUSE M ODE , the default setting for the cordless mouse, you move the cursor with a “pick up and
slide” motion similar to using a traditional mouse.
Hints:
• If you find that using a pen is somewhat difficult, try the eye-hand coordination exercise.
• Pointing is easier when you orient the tablet so the screen cursor follows the same
direction as your hand movements on the tablet.
Try moving the screen cursor by lifting
the pen and placing the pen tip in a
new location on the tablet. The cursor
instantly jumps to the new location.
When positioning the screen cursor and operating the side switch, the pen tip
needs to be within 5 mm (0.20 inch) of the tablet surface. You do not need to
touch the tablet with the pen tip in order to move the screen cursor or use the
side switch.
The cordless mouse works similarly to the pen, and works only over the
active area of the tablet.
