Ultrapen; Using The Ultrapen - Wacom Cintiq 15X Manual

Using the UltraPen

UltraPen

Hold the UltraPen as you would a pencil. Make sure the side switch is in a convenient location where you
can press it with your thumb or forefinger, but won't accidentally press it while drawing.

Tip Switch
Pen Tip
When the pen tip is within proximity (5 mm or 0.2 in) of the active area, the tablet reports:
- The x, y coordinates of the pen tip.
- The pressure applied to the pen tip.
- Whether a side switch is on or off.
When pressure is applied to the pen tip, the tip switch is turned on and the pen simulates a
mouse button click.
Eraser
To use the eraser, hold the UltraPen upside down. When the eraser is within proximity of the active area, the
tablet reports the x, y coordinates and the pressure applied to the eraser.
The eraser can be used as an eraser or assigned to another function, depending on the application. The tab-
let distinguishes the tip switch from the eraser switch.
Side Switch and Second Side Switch
These switches are programmable, and can be used to perform the same click and double-click
functions as the tip switch. The switches are turned on when pressed, and are otherwise
turned off. Please refer to the online Help for more information on side switch settings.
