Wacom Tablets and Standard Productivity Programs.

I am interested in getting a Wacom tablet and I am well aware that for Adobe type products such as Photoshop, Illustrator and Flash it is very useful. However, I am curious as to if it can do anything just within the OS itself, especially with Safari, Mail and basic System functions; as well as Office for Mac (2004), iLife '08 (especially iWeb) and iWork '08 (especially Keynote). Has anyone tried it out on those programs/suites? Also can it do anything with Bridge?
*Edit: I have Adobe CS3 Premium Design Suite on my system. The line of tablets I am interested in is the Intuos3 line as I do mostly Photoshop work.

I have a Wacom Intuous and for me, I have to say that in Bridge or any non graphics program, it doesn't do anything special for me. If you do a lot of Photoshop work or like to draw, you will find it invaluable. Also the Intuous line comes with a mouse, so if you have the tablet plopped in your lap, you can switch between the pen and a mouse while using the tablet easily.
If you get the Intuous, you may also want to try out the Ink application. When you have your tablet connected, it shows up in system preferences and you need to turn it on to use it. Some of the features it offers are system wide (i.e. you can write text like a palm pilot instead of typing but I would rather type). Ink does offer a couple of useful features though, you can dash off a quick note or a sketch with it.
Again, if you use Photoshop a lot, get the tablet; it's well worth it.

    Hi Suganya,
    The custom form is getting displayed properly. But the requirement is to have it as an editable PDF. So the functional team is working on configuring the settings of PDF forms with customers email address.
    But for right now, i customized the standard form F140_ACC_STAT_01 and standard print program RFKORD10_PDF and did the configuration. It is getting displayed (I tested only with the transaction FBL5N - customer open line items..)
    Please let me know any further details on this.

    Enterprise extended edition = (Enterprise edition) + Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise + Sybase Replication Server + Sybase Replication Server Agent + SAP HANA load controller
    It depends on what licenses you already have and how do you intends to use HANA.

  • Non-Wacom tablets and CS4 and Nvidia

    I have a Trust tablet and CS4 and have experienced problems with draw. The problems have already been stated in the thread http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b6c5ed/53 regarding Wacom tablets, and apply to Genius tablets as well as Trust.
    As I have said in that thread, when I draw with the tablet and then select another tool, such as type, then try and draw with the tablet again, all I get is a straight line between the start and the end point. There is no such problem in earlier versions of Photoshop.
    However,I have just noticed something odd. I was experimenting, trying to fix the lag in my screen redraw, drawing and typing (also see relevant thread- "CS4 lag. What graphic card will it take?") and thought I would change the screen refresh rate. After I did that, the tablet started working again perfectly, and this "fix" works every time. This happens even if I start to change the screen refresh rate, but then cancel.
    Since I have an Nvidia card, and this fix is playing with the card settings, I wonder if it is all related to the obvious problems CS4 and Nvidia have with each other? Can someone else try?

    Lag in screen redraw is most likely a video card issue.
    Bad lines, or a lack of pressure are due to tablet driver problems.
    Do make sure you have Photoshop 11.0.1.

  • Mac OS 10.4.3 freezing/locking up with Wacom tablet and driver

    Hey guys, I have recently purchased the Wacom Intuos3 6x11 tablet and now my PowerBook freezes after like 10 minutes to 2 hours I plug it in. So far I have tried removing and installing different drivers. I have also have reinstalled my system (erase and install, custom no printer drivers and foreign languages) I have run permissions repair, disk repair, Extended Apple Hardware Test, and I have also rest the PRAM - I'm running out options. I don't have any other drivers installed yet, only some apps like Adobe CS2, Alias SketchBookPro 2, Painter 9. The system runs fine without the driver but it makes the tablet useless. Also the tablet runs w/o any issues on my Windows machine (XP pro).
    Oh, I have also re-calibrated my tablet and still nothing.
    The lock-ups happen no matter in what application I am in or what I'm doing.
    Any ideas?
    Also, Wacom tech guys have no idea what to do with this one.

    I've been running with that tablet since October with no problems on my G4 800 Dual, except for an annoying scrolling problem in Safari. You might try launching Console and leave it in the background and see if any messages show up when the problem occurs. You might also check the system.log in Console and see if you spot anything in there, though that is harder to sort out. Also in Console take a look in ~/Library/Logs CrashReporter section and see if there are any crash logs involving the tablet. You might also run the hardware test disk to see if it spots anything wrong. It could be a problem with the USB plug.

  • Wacom tablet and photoshop

    I have just got a new Macbook Pro Yosemite. I have Adobe CS6 and everytime I use my Wacom tablet it acts buggy. For instance: Using the eraser tool, if I want to make the eraser larger I hit "]" as a shortcut. This doesn't work unless I click on a mouse first on the background before using the Pen again. This happens for other tools and shortcuts. The Polygonal Lasso tool also only works if there is a very long lag between points using the Wacom Pen.
    Is anyone else having this issue? I've tried reinstalling the Wacom drivers and updating the software but it has yet to be effective.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Cheers

    That is a definite yes. It is way more accurate than the mouse is and it provides pressure values that will be important for any brush work. Even Illustrator makes use of them.
    There will be a lot of clipping images for the web page so it makes sense to have a precise instrument to do the job.
    One last thing, it will help prevent carpal tunnel in your wrist. If you already have it it will provide some relief. If nothing more than a way to alter how you hold your hand for a while.
    It will take some time getting use to the tablet, so keep a mouse around, especially at school. Nothing worse than getting frustrated when your under a time crunch. Play with the tablet at home get use to it, when you feel comfortable with it, then try it in school. Just be prepared to use the mouse when your under pressure. Over time that won't be an issue.

  • Standrad smartform and standard print program not available in ECC 6.0

    Hi gurus,
    I have a requirement like, I need to change the logo of the standrad smartform based on the company code.
    The standard smartform name is '/SMBUSE/US_MMGR3'.
    I have searched for the above form in ECC 6.0 and could not find one.
    is the issue because of installation or configuration?
    Please let me know what need to be installed or configured. so that I can give directions to the respective basis / functional guys.
    please let me know the standard print program for the above smartform and how can I find the same.
    Thanks & Regards
    Kiran Kumar K

    Hi ,
    No standard smartform's were available because SAP Best Practises was not installed in the system.
    If standard smarforms are not installed then in this case we need to need to download the forms and upload them in our system.
    We need to copy paste the standard print program's as well.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • I use a wacom tablet and since firefox version 7 I am no longer able to program the buttons on the pen or tablet to perform the 'back' function but the keyboard shortcuts still work

    Mac OS 10.6.8 (snow leopard). Same problem on 2 machines, a Quad core MacPro and a 2010 27" iMac

    Add-ons are the responsibility of their authors. McAfee does not even put their extension on http://addons.mozilla.org you had to install it from their site.
    Disable "McAfee Site Advisor" extension which was just updated to 3.4.0, which probably took it out of the addons block list.
    * "Ctrl+Shift+A" > find McAfee Site Advisor and use "Disable", and then restart Firefox.
    * Do a Google Search no problem
    * It seems that if you re-enable Site Advisor again, and restart Firefox you are okay. At least you know where to look if you get the error again or Google searches slow down.

  • Problem with Wacom Tablet and Brush Tool

    When using the brush tool with an Intuos 5 tablet (mostly to edit layer masks), PS will become unresponsive to pen input - that is, I can't draw. The cursor moves, and I can switch tools with the keyboard, but pressing with the pen to tablet does not register. If I click with the mouse, it will register. If I use the spacebar to get the grabber hand then click and drag, the pen will again become responsive. If I click on a palette with the pen, I can draw again.
    I have been in touch with Wacom, and at their suggestion, I have:
    1. Downgraded the driver to the previous version.
    2. Reinstalled the driver.
    3. Connected the tablet directly to the computer rather than using a hub or wireless kit
    This problem also occurred on my previous computer (mac pro 8x2.8ghz, os 10.8)
    When using the same tablet with my laptop, the problem does not occur, nor does it occur when using a Bamboo tablet on the Mac Pro.
    I don't see the problem occurring with other tools, but I don't use them as frequently.
    One other thing I should mention is that I'm working on very large files (2-6G) but do have 64G of memory installed.
    Currently using:
    Mac Pro 8x2.93ghz
    Mac OS 10.9.1
    PS 13.0.6
    I've been back and forth with Wacom via email for about a mothh, and I suspect they are out of troubleshooting options. They suggest the problem is with PS, but I'm not really sure.

    Hi CoGordo4,
    Make certain you have "New Art Has Basic Appearance" checked in the Appearance Panel menu.
    Also realize that the "Basic" brush, isn't really a brush at all. It simply removes all brush appearances from a stroke.

  • What are touch tablets and how to program for it?

    I think the accessibility class handles devices like touch pads. Which by the way is basicaly a screen that displays your gui, and instead of clicking the buttons they touch them. Think of an ATM machine.

  • Surface Microsoft Tablet and Photoshop products

    Hi! I wonder if my Photoshop Elements 10 and Premiere Elements 10 will work with the new Microsoft Tablet?

    The Surface is quite new, it seems to be neither a tablet or a laptop.
      As such I don’t know much about Windows RT other than it comes pre-installed on devices.
    Generally you can't run desktop applications. You need different software for tablets which run on their own operation systems e.g. Android from Google, or iOS for the iPad.
    Tablet apps from Adobe include the consumer package Photoshop Express or the more professional Photoshop touch.

  • Photoshop CC 2014 incompatible with Wacom tablets?

    Hey everyone, so I'm having a lot of issues with my Wacom tablets and PS CC 2014. So, I have two tablets hooked up to my computer (and before you ask, no, the issues don't stem from two tablets being connected to the computer. I already tested that.) A Cintiq 21UX and an Intuos 5. Both work very well and as you would expect in Photoshop CC, however in CC 2014 they have loads of problems. On the Cintiq, while I get great, fluid lines with the brush tool I can't change my eraser's size on the fly by rotating my pen like usual. It's very annoying and absolutely destroys workflow. Now, the eraser works, but the size can't be changed by flipping the pen from the brush tool like it normally would be able to. That's just the issue with the Cintiq though, on the Intuos 5 there's no pen pressure whatsoever! It just thinks the pen is a mouse, on both sides of it. I'm certain this isn't a driver issue, as the tablets have their drivers up-to-date and work perfectly with both Photoshop CC (standard) and Corel Painter X3.
    Does anyone know how I could fix these issues?

    I'm on Windows 8.1 with an Intuos4 tablet.  I updated to photoshop CC 2014 and after updating the tablet driver so I had the use Windows Ink checkbox I got the pressure sensitivity back but the lines are horrible and jagged so I'm trying to revert to the old implementation following your instructions and created the txt file named PSUserConfig.txt with the lines
    # Use WinTab
    UseSystemStylus 0
    That worked to get pressure sensitivity to work whether or not the Windows ink box was checked but didn't fix the jagged lines.
    I'm not sure I understand the second part of your instructions about turning off gestalt's functionality (Not even sure what that is) Is there supposed to be a PSUSerConfig.txt file because there wasn't one until I just saved the one I made.  Is any of this even going to fix the jagged lines or is that a whole different issue?
    Everything works just fine in Photoshop CC 64bit

  • How to I get the the Wacom tablet's pen sensitivity to work on Photoshop when it works in Flash?

    Hi Everyone!
    Alright so I did some looking around to see if I could use other threads to help solve my issue before I came here to ask. A lot of them seem to be related to surface pro and some of the instructions I followed was to remove USB drivers so that they can re-install themselves and simply re-installing the Wacom drivers.
    I am on Windows 8 (64bit) and am using and Intuos 4 Wacom tablet and what seems to be most peculiar is that the pressure sensitivity seems to be working just fine in Flash but has never been able to work in Photoshop. I took this as a sign that this might be more of an issue with the application than the tablet itself since it is clearly registering in another application.
    Sorry if this has been answered before! If so, it would be great to get a link otherwise I would greatly be indebted to those able to help me with my problem.
    Thanks so much!

    1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.
    iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
    2)
    Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Then on the iPod go to
    - Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
