Interactive pen display
WORKING WITH DISPLAY TOGGLE
DISPLAY TOGGLE is available only on multiple monitor systems. The feature allows you to use your pen on
the interactive pen display to navigate the screen cursor to any display on your system. After setting a pen
side switch to the D
ISPLAY TOGGLE function, you can then press that button to toggle the screen cursor
between the pen display and your other displays. For example, your product can be used as a pen display
where the screen cursor is positioned at the pen tip location, or toggled for use as a standard Wacom tablet
where the screen cursor can be moved across the entire desktop or additional displays.
When you open the Wacom Tablet control panel and the pen display is the selected tablet, the D
ISPLAY
T
OGGLE tab will be available if the system has two or more displays. The DISPLAY TOGGLE tab enables you to
define how the mapping will be applied to each toggled display.
When PEN DISPLAY TO DESKTOP
is selected and you press a pen
button that has been assigned
the D
ISPLAY TOGGLE function,
the screen cursor will toggle
from your pen display to the
entire system desktop.
Pressing the button a second
time returns the screen cursor
to the pen display.
When P
EN DISPLAY TO OTHER
DISPLAYS is selected and you
press the pen button, the
screen cursor is toggled from
your pen display to another
active pen display or monitor.
If additional displays are
attached to the system, the
screen cursor will toggle to
each display in turn until it
returns to the pen display from
where the initial toggle began.
ACTIVE AREA options enable you to determine the size of the area where the
pen is functional on the pen display. When you make a selection, the red
indicator updates to illustrate your choice.
•F
ORCE PROPORTIONS adjusts the size of the tablet’s active area to
maintain correct vertical and horizontal proportions between the pen
display and the entire desktop or newly mapped-to display.
Depending on your settings, some portions of the tablet active area may
no longer be usable when this option is selected.
When deselected, the correct scale or proportions are not maintained –
for example, sketching a circle on the pen display may create an ellipse
on a mapped-to display screen.
•U
SE INSET AREA limits the tablet’s active area to a sizing of 6 x 8 inches.
If F
ORCE PROPORTIONS is also selected, this sizing may be less.
When deselected, as much as possible of the entire tablet active area
will be used for tablet-to-display mapping.
Important: If you are using
application-specific
settings with D
ISPLAY
T
OGGLE, make sure each
customized application
in the A
PPLICATION list
(including A
LL OTHER)
has a pen button that is
assigned to D
ISPLAY
T
OGGLE.
