Proximity - Wacom GRAPHIRE 3 User Manual

PROXIMITY

The pen is activated as soon as it nears the surface of the tablet's active area. This is known as entering tablet
proximity, and allows you to position the screen cursor or use the side switch without touching the pen tip to the
tablet. You can also trace a drawing or photograph as long as the pen tip remains within proximity height of the
tablet surface.
Place a picture either on top of or beneath the photo frame cover and try tracing it from within one of your graphics
applications. (The thickness of the item to be traced or digitized should be 1 mm or less.) See
Underlay for details on placing an image beneath the photo frame cover.
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, average.
When drawing or clicking, the pen tip needs to be within 1 mm
(0.04 inch) of the tablet surface.
The Cordless Mouse works similarly to the pen, and can only
be used on the tablet's active area. For the Cordless Mouse,
proximity is approximately 1 - 2 mm (.04 - .08 inch).
