Clicking; Dragging - Wacom Intuos 3 User Manual

Clicking

You typically click to highlight or select something on the screen, and double-click to open it.
Clicking. To click, tap the pen tip once on the tablet, or press the pen tip on the tablet with enough force to
register a click. (There is no audible pen tip "click" sound.) Try clicking on a folder icon by moving the screen
cursor over the icon and pressing down on the pen tip. The folder should highlight when you press.
Double Clicking. To double-click, quickly tap the tablet twice in the same place with the pen tip. This is like
clicking twice with a mouse button. Try double-clicking on a folder icon to open it.
Hints:
• Press the upper side switch to double-click in Windows, or the
lower switch to double-click on Macintosh systems. This is easier
than tapping twice with the pen tip, and is the preferred method of
double-clicking with a pen.
• Windows: You can make navigating with the pen easier by
configuring Windows to select when the pen is over an icon and
to launch the icon with a single click. To turn on this feature:
Windows Me, 2000, or XP: Open a folder, select the T
down menu, and F
OLDER
select the option S
INGLE
).
SELECT
Windows 98: Open a folder, select the

option.
