260 Pressure sensitivity and pen tablets Using Pressure Studio DrawPlus's Pressure Studio acts as an interface between your tablet and DrawPlus, purposely designed to: • Calibrate pressure response (below) for multiple input devices, so that DrawPlus tools respond more predictably per device. • Set up your tablet's key assignments from within DrawPlus (if your tablet supports function keys). The studio offers: • A practice area for automatically calibrating your tablet's input devices (Pressure Stylus, Eraser, Airbrush, etc.) by drawing soft/firm strokes. Manual calibration for fine-tuning is also possible. As you swap between each device (e.g., between pen stylus and eraser) the pressure response curve for that device is displayed accordingly. • Management of pressure response profiles. Preset profiles are available to resolve common problems associated with unexpected pressure response.
Pressure sensitivity and pen tablets 261 • Disabling of pressure input globally, to allow DrawPlus to operate without tablet pressure sensitivity. To launch Pressure Studio: • Select Pressure from the Standard toolbar. The Pressure Studio is displayed. Before calibration, practice drawing with your input device in the practice area! The calibration process is described in detail in the online Help. Function key assignment If your pen tablet is equipped with ExpressKeys (or equivalent), Pressure Studio lets you assign your tablet's keys to DrawPlus tools. The studio changes depending on the type of pen tablet installed, so you'll get an accurate representation of your pen tablet's key layout shown within Pressure Studio's Functions tab. Example of Wacom Intuos 3's ExpressKey assignment in DrawPlus.
