USING APPLICATIONS INTEGRATED FOR TABLET CONTROL
Some software applications may be designed to directly control the pen tablet ExpressKeys or Touch Strip
function(s). When working in an application that has been integrated in this manner, the ExpressKeys or
Touch Strips may perform a different function than what is currently set in the Wacom Tablet control panel.
When an ExpressKey is overridden by an application, the ExpressKey setting will automatically update,
using either the new function name or “Application Defined”. Some or all of the ExpressKeys may be
overridden, depending on the application.
When an application overrides the Touch Strip, all Touch Strip functions are affected. If an application
overrides only one, two, or three of the available Touch Strip functions, the remaining function(s) are set
to S
KIP.
An integrated application will control the ExpressKeys or Touch Strip only when that application is
active and in the foreground. When you close that application (or select a new application pane to work
in), your Wacom Tablet control panel settings are returned to their previous state.
To review the ExpressKeys or Touch Strip function settings for the current front-most application, set an
ExpressKey to S
HOW SETTINGS or HELP and press the key at any time.
Applications that have been integrated in this manner will typically provide you with the opportunity to opt-
out or disable this functionality when first using your Wacom tablet with the application. See the
documentation provided with your application for any specific details on functionality and how to
customize or disable this feature.
If an automatic prompt or the application’s documentation does not describe how to disable this behavior,
you can use the Wacom Tablet control panel to create application-specific settings
which will override the
behavior of the integrated application.
Important: If an application-specific setting has been created for an integrated application, setting an
ExpressKey or Touch Strip function to A
PPLICATION DEFINED will allow the integrated application to control
the function.
