Contents Index 8 Contents Index 9 USING THE CORDLESS PEN There are four basic techniques for using the pressure-sensitive pen: pointing, clicking, double-clicking, and dragging. If you are unfamiliar with using the pen, try the exercises on the following pages. Holding the pen About the active area Pointing Clicking Dragging Using the pen buttons Drawing with pressure sensitivity Erasing Eye-hand coordination exercise HOLDING THE PEN Hold the Bamboo Fun pen like you would a normal pen or pencil. Make sure the pen buttons are in a convenient location where you can toggle them with your thumb or forenger, but not accidently press them while drawing or navigating with the pen. Tilt the pen in any way that feels most comfortable. Position for drawing and navigating. Position for erasing. Use the pen stand to store the pen between tasks. The stand allows vertical or horizontal placement of the pen. Important: When the pen is not in use, place it in the pen stand or lay it at 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 Bamboo Fun tool on the tablet may interfere with screen cursor positioning when using other pointing devices. Also, leaving a Bamboo Fun tool on the tablet when not in use can prevent your computer from going to sleep. Contents Index 9 Contents Index 10 ABOUT THE ACTIVE AREA The active area is the area of the tablet that senses pen movement. The screen area is the corresponding area on the screen. The tablet active area is a mapped representation of your computer screen (a one-to-one relationship), and uses the entire screen. Wherever you place the pen on the tablet, the screen cursor will jump to the corresponding point on the screen. This is the default setting for the pen. Pointer. Screen area. The pointer in the screen area indicates pen position, and the pointer follows the movements of the pen. Active area. Contents Index 10 Contents Index 11 POINTING The Bamboo Fun pen positions the pointer (or cursor) on your screen. You can position the screen cursor two different ways, like a pen (P In P

) or like a mouse (M OUSE OUSE ODE ODE ODE ODE M M M M EN EN

). Try moving the screen cursor by lifting the pen and placing the pen tip in a new location on the tablet. The cursor instantly jumps to the new location. When positioning the screen cursor and operating a pen button, the pen tip needs to be within 5 mm (0.20 inch) of the tablet surface. You do not need to touch the tablet with the pen tip in order to move the screen cursor or use a pen button. The cordless mouse works similarly to the pen, and works only over the active area of the tablet. 5 mm (0.20 inch) Hints:

If you nd that using a pen is somewhat difcult, try the eye-hand coordination exercise. Pointing is easier when you orient the tablet so the screen cursor follows the same direction as your hand movements on the tablet. Contents Index 11 Contents Index 12 CLICKING Click to highlight or select something on the screen. Double-click to open it. Clicking. register a click. (If C is selected in the Pen Tablet control panel and your computer speakers are on, then you will hear a click sound when the pen tip is pressed hard enough to generate a button click.) 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. Tap the pen tip once on the tablet, or press the pen tip on the tablet with enough force to OUND LICK S Hint: You can congure Windows to select when the pen is over an icon and to launch the icon with a single click. To turn on this feature, rst open a folder. For Windows Vista, from the ORGANIZE pull-down menu choose FOLDER AND SEARCH OPTIONS.... From the GENERAL tab select SINGLE-CLICK TO OPEN AN ITEM (POINT TO SELECT). For other Windows versions, from the TOOLS pull-

down menu choose FOLDER OPTIONS.... From the GENERAL tab select SINGLE-CLICK TO OPEN AN ITEM

(POINT TO SELECT). Double-clicking. with a mouse button. Try double-clicking on a folder icon to open it. Quickly tap the tablet twice in the same place with the pen tip. This is like clicking twice Hint: Set a pen button to DOUBLE CLICK. This is easier than tapping twice with the pen tip. DRAGGING To drag, rst point to an object. Then press the pen tip to the tablet and slide it across the tablet surface. The selected object will move across the screen. To select text, move the screen cursor to the beginning of a text line, then drag the pen across the tablet until the text is highlighted. First, try moving an icon on the screen. Then, within a document, select some text by pressing and dragging the pen tip across the text. Contents Index 12 Contents Index 13 USING THE PEN BUTTONS The Bamboo Fun pen has two buttons. Each button has a programmable function that is selected when you press the button. You can use a pen button whenever the pen tip is within 5 mm (0.20 inch) of the tablet active area. You do not have to touch the pen tip to the tablet to use a button. The upper pen button is set to RIGHT CLICK, and the lower button is set to PAN/SCROLL by default. Use RIGHT CLICK to bring up application-specic or icon-specic menus. PAN/SCROLL lets you position a document or image in any direction within the active window by pressing the pen button and moving the pen tip across the tablets active area. As you move the pen tip, the document or image is repositioned to follow the direction of pen movement on the tablet. Release the pen button or lift the pen tip from the tablet surface when you are done. In some application windows the document will precisely follow the screen cursor as you move the pen tip, while in others it will simply move in the same general direction as the screen cursor. Hint: Set a pen button to DOUBLE CLICK. This is easier than tapping twice with the pen tip. Example of right click on computer display. Example of pan/scroll movement on computer display. To assign new switch functions, see customizing the pen buttons. Contents Index 13 Contents Index 14 DRAWING WITH PRESSURE SENSITIVITY The Bamboo Fun pen responds to your hand movements, enabling you to create natural-looking pen and brush strokes. Many graphics applications have drawing tools that respond to the pressure you place on the pen. The digital ink tools in Microsoft Windows Vista and Ofce 2007 also respond to the pressure you place on the pen. To draw with pressure sensitivity, rst select a pressure-sensitive tool from your applications tool palette. Then draw along the surface of the tablet while applying various amounts of pressure downward on the tip of the pen. Press hard for thick lines or dense color. Press gently for thin lines or softer color. To adjust the tip feel, see adjusting tip feel, eraser feel, and double-

click. Visit our web site for a list of graphics applications that support pressure. See product information. ERASING The Bamboo Fun pen eraser works like the eraser on a pencil. In graphics applications that support the pen eraser, you can erase intuitively and naturally. When you use the pen eraser, the application will automatically switch to the eraser tool. In applications that support pressure sensitivity, you can select pressure-

sensitive tools in an applications tool palette to vary the width and depth of your erasures as you change the amount of pressure you exert upon the pen. For Microsoft Windows Vista and Ofce 2007, you can use the eraser to erase notes or sketches made with digital ink, and to select and delete text or spreadsheet cells within an application. For more information, see adjusting tip feel, eraser feel, and double-click. Visit our web site for a list of graphics applications that support the eraser (see product information). If the eraser is not supported in an application, you can still use the eraser for navigating, drawing, or annotation. Contents Index 14 Contents Index 15 EYE-HAND COORDINATION EXERCISE This exercise is designed to retrain your eye-hand coordination for using the pen:

1. Open any graphics application. Use the line tool to sketch a rectangular grid with line spacings of about 20-25 mm (3/4 to 1 inch). You can use your traditional mouse to do this. 2. Choose a free-hand tool in your application and use the pen to draw a dot at each grid intersection. 3. Draw an X at each grid intersection. 4. Now sketch a circle around each intersection. Your screen should look like this:

5. Clear your screen and make a simple drawing of your own. The more you use your pen, the easier drawing and navigation will become. Contents Index 15 Contents Index 16 USING THE CORDLESS MOUSE The Bamboo Fun cordless mouse is battery-free and works on your Bamboo Fun pen tablet. Note that some product congurations may not include the cordless mouse. The ngerwheel can be rolled, or pressed for an additional button function. Rolling. By default, the ngerwheel is set to SCROLL 3 lines per wheel step in most windows and applications. Move the ngerwheel forward to scroll up, and back to scroll down. Wheel button. Press down on the wheel to perform a button click. The wheel button is set to MIDDLE CLICK by default. The right button is set to RIGHT CLICK by default, and displays a context menu when pressed. The left button is set to CLICK by default, and is the primary button used for selecting. Hint: For Microsoft Ofce applications that support a wheel mouse, press the CTRL key and move the ngerwheel to zoom in and out. Important: When the cordless mouse is not in use, place it on your desk. Leaving a Bamboo Fun tool on the tablet may interfere with screen cursor positioning when using other pointing devices, or may prevent your computer from going to sleep. To adjust the mouse behavior for your preferences, see customizing the cordless mouse. Contents Index 16 Contents Index 17 WORKING WITH THE TABLET The middle area of the tablet is the working, or active, area for the pen and cordless mouse. Rest your hand on the tablet and then work with the pen on the active area of the tablet just as if you were using a ball point pen on a piece of paper. Wherever you place your pen on the tablet active area, the screen cursor will jump to the corresponding point on the screen. See using the cordless pen and using the cordless mouse for more information. Your tablet also features a customizable Touch Ring and ExpressKeys for frequently used functions. Touch Ring. Slide your nger over the Touch Ring to zoom or scroll. By default the Touch Ring is set for zoom functionality. Move your nger clockwise to zoom in on a document or image. Move your nger counterclockwise to zoom out. See also customizing the tablet functions. ExpressKeys. Press the customizable ExpressKeys to perform frequently used functions or keystrokes, or to emulate button clicks or modier keys. ExpressKeys can be used separately or in combination with your Bamboo Fun pen. For example, you can set a pair of keys to commonly used keystrokes, such as [ and ] to decrease and increase your brush size in Photoshop. In this manner you can change the properties of your pen as you work without removing your hands from the tablet. By default, the upper keys are set to move FORWARD (right key) or BACK (left key) within your Internet browser. On Windows Vista systems the lower left button defaults to JOURNAL when the Journal application is available. Otherwise, the button is set to SHOW DESKTOP. For the lower right button, the default condition is SWITCH APPLICATION on Windows systems and EXPOS on Macintosh systems. Contents Index 17 Contents Index 18 USING THE EXPRESSKEYS Press the ExpressKeys to perform frequently used functions. You can do this with your secondary hand while using your primary hand to work with your Bamboo Fun pen on the tablet. The ExpressKey default settings will vary depending on which operating system you are using. BACK FORWARD SHOW DESKTOP Windows Vista (Aero):

A broad category that typically describes handwritten content which has been created using pen-based input on a computer. This handwritten content takes the form of sketches, ink mark-up, or handwriting. The handwriting can optionally be converted to typewritten text or simply left alone for use in its original format. Depending on your system and application settings, the handwritten text you make with digital ink can be converted on-the-y or at another time. Double-click distance. The maximum distance (in screen pixels) that the cursor can move between clicks and still be accepted as a double-click. Increasing the double-click distance makes double-clicking easier, but may cause a delay in brush strokes in some graphics applications. Eraser-aware application. A software application that has built-in support for the Bamboo Fun eraser. These applications take advantage of the eraser in different ways, depending on what makes sense for the application. ExpressKeys. The customizable control keys located on your pen tablet. Fingerwheel. The control wheel on the cordless mouse. Journal. A Microsoft Windows application that electronically simulates a physical journal pad, but with the advantages of digital note-taking.

Journal includes a variety of pen, marker, and highlighter tools, plus an eraser that is easily activated by the eraser end of your Bamboo Fun pen. Additionally, your handwritten content is searchable within Journal. Mapping. The relationship between your Bamboo Fun tool position on the tablet and the cursor position on the monitor screen.

You can customize the buttons of your Bamboo Fun tools to display this menu. Pressure sensitive. A quality of the Bamboo Fun pen tip and eraser that senses the amount of pressure being applied.
