Using The Cordless Pen; Holding The Pen - Wacom GRAPHIRE BLUETOOTH User Manual

Using the cordless pen

Your Graphire pen is cordless, battery-free, and pressure sensitive. There are four basic techniques for
using the pen: pointing, clicking, double-clicking, and dragging. With a bit of practice, using the pen will
become second nature to you. If you are unfamiliar with using the pen, try the exercises on the following
pages.

Holding the pen

Hold the Graphire pen like you would a normal pen or pencil. Make sure the DuoSwitch is in a convenient
location where you can toggle it with your thumb or forefinger, but not accidently press the switch while
drawing. You can tilt the pen in any way that feels most comfortable for drawing.
Position for drawing.
Important: When the pen is not in use, place it in the pen storage compartment, the pen stand, or
lay it flat on your desk. To maintain the sensitivity of your pen tip, do not store the pen in a container
where it will rest on its tip. Leaving a Graphire tool on the tablet may interfere with screen cursor
positioning when using other pointing devices. Also, leaving the pen on the tablet when not in use
can prevent the tablet from switching off and cause the battery to drain down.
