WORKING WITH AUTOCAD

AutoCAD for Windows can support the Intuos2 tablet as a System Pointing Device or as a Wintab

Compatible Digitizer. By default, AutoCAD is conﬁgured to use Intuos2 as a System Pointing Device.

If you will be using Intuos2 with tablet menus or to digitize drawings to proper scale, you will need to follow

the procedures below.

Note:

To conﬁgure the Lens Cursor or Mouse for left handed use when digitizing in AutoCAD or in other

programs that look at button numbers instead of the assigned button function, select the L

EFT HANDED

option in the P

REFERENCES dialog box (accessed from the EDIT pull-down menu).
