Question 1

Did your tablet arrive with the extra nibs? I didn't see any packed in the box when I opened it. Am I missing something obvious? Where would they be?

Accepted Answer

From memory....There is a plastic panel on the back of the tablet.  When you remove that panel, flip it. 3 nibs are attached to it!  They blend in with the plastic and you may not realize that they can pop off.  They look moulded on.

Question 2

Does the resting part of your drawing hand ever get miscounted as a touch command?

Accepted Answer

I have not had that issue before. It seems as long as the tip is within an inch or two above the drawing surface the tablet knows to ignore the touch that the resting hand would produce. If such an issue did arise there is a switch on the tablet near the top right corner that turns off the touch sensitivity entirely.

Question 3

Can I place a paper sketch onto the tablet and trace it to the computer screen. In other words, will the paper sketch block the pickup of the pin?

Accepted Answer

The answer is you can put a sketch paper on the tablet and draw it will trace it on the computer screen. In fact, i just tried it now. Just make sure to stay in the same area that you are drawing in don't zoom out since the place you placed the sketch is where the tablet appeared it on screen if you zoom out you won't be able to trace in the same area, and for this technique you are using , i really advice you to get a large tablet , i have a small one so the sketch doesn't fit on the whole tablet. But if it was a big one i'm sure the paper would be able to fit. :)
