TABLET TO SCREEN MAPPING
Select the MAPPING tab to define the relationship between tool movement on the tablet surface and cursor
movement on the monitor screen.
By default the entire active area of the tablet maps to the entire monitor. If more than one monitor is in use
the tablet will map to all monitors. See working with multiple monitors
.
The ORIENTATION setting is tablet specific,
and applies to all tools and applications.

the pen.
