USING THE TOUCH RINGS
Slide your finger around the ring to zoom in or out, scroll up or down, or to issue the assigned keystroke
functions. By default, the Touch Rings enable you to zoom in most graphics applications and to scroll in
other applications. You can also set them to issue custom keystrokes. For example, you might set a Touch
Ring function to cycle layers when working in Adobe Photoshop.
Important: Some applications can override and control the Touch Ring functions. For details, see
using applications integrated for tablet control
.
Example of zooming in
Move your finger clockwise along the ring to zoom in or scroll down in most
applications. Tap the upper portion of the Touch Ring for single increment changes
based on the assigned function.
Example of zooming out
Move your finger counter-clockwise to zoom out or scroll up. Tap the lower portion
of the Touch Ring for single increment changes.
Press a Touch Ring mode button to switch between three customizable states.
Status LEDs show the active mode.
As you press each button, an overlay appears briefly on your display screen to
show the button assignments.
Default settings are the same for both Touch Rings. Right-handed configuration
shown:
For left-handed configuration, the Touch Ring mode settings are swapped (or
flipped) between left and right.
