Move Origin
The origin is the place on the tablet where the X and Y position reads 0,0. The default
origin is the lower left corner of the active area on the tablet surface. It may be relocated
to any port on the surface. The polarity of X and Y data surrounding the origin follows the
rule of the Cartesian plane. All X locations to the left of the origin are negative; all points to
the right are positive. All Y locations below the origin are negative; all points above it are
positive.
Moving the origin does not affect the active area or margins. Crossing from positive to
negative regions or back again does not impact data output other than changing the
polarity of the data.
