Screen cursor. The pointer on the display screen. Screen cursors come in different shapes (such as an 
I-beam, arrow, or box), depending on which application you are running.
Thumbwheel. The wheel on the side of the Intuos 4D Mouse that gives you an additional control variable 
for your work. You can customize the functions and sensitivity of the thumbwheel in the control panel.
Tilt sensitive. A quality of the Intuos Pen and Airbrush tip and eraser that senses the amount of tilt 
between the tool and tablet. This is used to create natural-looking pen, brush, and eraser strokes in 
applications that are tilt-sensitive.
Tool ID. A feature that makes each Intuos tool unique. If you are working with two identical pens, the 
tablet will recognize each one as a separate tool. This is particularly useful if you have customized each 
pen differently.
Tracking speed. A setting that allows you to adjust the speed at which your screen cursor moves when 
your Intuos tool is in Mouse 
Mode.
Wintab.  An interface standard used by Windows applications for receiving tablet information. Intuos 
supports all Wintab-compatible applications under Windows.
