Contents IndexContents 8Index8SETTING UP YOUR WORK AREATo minimize fatigue, organize your work area so you can work comfortably.  Position your tablet, pen, and keyboard so they are easily accessible without unnecessary reaching.  Your monitor should be positioned so you can view it comfortably with a minimum of eyestrain.  For best results, orient the tablet so the screen cursor follows the same direction as your hand movements on the tablet.Note regarding RSI: Wacom makes no representation, promise or guarantee that Wacom products will cure or prevent, in whole or in part, mouse-induced repetitive stress symptoms, injuries or conditions.  Individual results may vary.  Always obtain competent medical advice to determine the most appropriate treatment for your specific situation.See working with the tablet for more information.Here are some other points to keep in mind:• Take short breaks between tasks to stretch and relax your muscles.• Use a gentle grip when working with your pen.• Alternate tasks and tools throughout the day.• Maintain a good posture at all times.  Minimize awkward postures and repetitive movements that cause discomfort.• Change your position if you feel any discomfort due to your work position.
Contents IndexContents 9Index9USING THE CORDLESS PENThere are four basic techniques for using the pen: pointing, clicking, double-clicking, and dragging.  If you are unfamiliar with using the pen, try the exercises on the following pages.Holding the penAbout the active areaPointingClickingDraggingUsing the pen buttonsWriting and Inking with pressure sensitivityEye-hand coordination exerciseHOLDING THE PENHold the Bamboo One pen like you would hold a normal pen or pencil.  Make sure the pen buttons are in a convenient location where you can toggle them with your thumb or forefinger, but not accidently press them while drawing or navigating with the pen.  You can tilt the pen in any way that feels most comfortable.Important: When the pen is not in use, place it in the pen rest or lay it flat on your desk.  To maintain the sensitivity of your pen tip, do not store the pen in a container where it will rest on its tip.  Leaving the Bamboo One pen on the tablet active area may interfere with screen cursor positioning when using other pointing devices.  Also, leaving the pen on the tablet active area when not in use can prevent your computer from going to sleep.Position for writing, drawing, and navigating.Use the integrated pen rest to store the pen between tasks.  This also makes the pen available for quick, easy access when you are working.  The rest allows horizontal placement of the pen.
Contents IndexContents 10Index10ABOUT THE ACTIVE AREAThe active area is the area of the tablet that senses pen movement.  The screen area is the corresponding area on the screen.The tablet active area is a mapped representation of your computer screen (a one-to-one relationship), and uses the entire screen.  Wherever you place the pen on the tablet, the screen cursor will jump to the corresponding point on the screen.  This is the default setting for the pen.Screen areaThe pointer in the screen area indicates pen position, and the pointer follows the movements of the pen.PointerActive area
Contents IndexContents 11Index11POINTINGThe Bamboo One pen positions the pointer (or cursor) on your screen.  You can position the screen cursor two different ways, like a pen (Pen Mode) or like a mouse (Mouse Mode).•In PEN MODE, the tablet active area is a mapped representation of your computer screen; wherever you place the pen on the tablet, the screen cursor will jump to the corresponding point on the screen.  This is the default setting for the pen.•In MOUSE MODE, you move the cursor with a “pick up and slide” motion similar to using a traditional mouse.Try moving the screen cursor by lifting the pen and placing the pen tip in a new location on the tablet.  The cursor instantly jumps to the new location.When positioning the screen cursor and operating a pen button, the pen tip needs to be within 5 mm (0.20 inch) of the tablet surface.  You do not need to touch the tablet with the pen tip in order to move the screen cursor or use a pen button.5 mm (0.20 inch)Hints:• If you find that using a pen is somewhat difficult, try the eye-hand coordination exercise.• Pointing is easier when you orient the tablet so the screen cursor follows the same direction as your hand movements on the tablet.
Contents IndexContents 12Index12CLICKINGYou typically click to highlight or select something on the screen, and double-click to open it.Clicking.  Tap the pen tip once on the tablet, or press the pen tip on the tablet with enough force to register a click.  (If CLICK SOUND is selected in the Bamboo control panel and your computer speakers are on, then you will hear a “click” sound when the pen tip is pressed hard enough to generate a button click.)  Try clicking on a folder icon by moving the screen cursor over the icon and pressing down on the pen tip.  The folder should highlight when you press.Double-clicking.  Quickly tap the tablet twice in the same place with the pen tip.  This is like clicking twice with a mouse button.  Try double-clicking on a folder icon to open it.DRAGGINGTo drag, first point to an object.  Then press the pen tip to the tablet and slide it across the tablet surface.  The selected object will move across the screen.  To select text, move the screen cursor to the beginning of a text line, then drag the pen across the tablet until the text is highlighted.Hint: You can configure Windows to select when the pen is over an icon and to launch the icon with a single click.  To turn on this feature, first open a folder.For Windows 7 and Vista, from the ORGANIZE pull-down menu choose FOLDER AND SEARCH OPTIONS....  From the GENERAL tab select SINGLE-CLICK TO OPEN AN ITEM (POINT TO SELECT).For other Windows versions, from the TOOLS pull-down menu choose FOLDER OPTIONS....  From the GENERAL tab select SINGLE-CLICK TO OPEN AN ITEM (POINT TO SELECT).Hint: Set a pen button to DOUBLE CLICK.  This is easier than tapping twice with the pen tip.First, try moving an icon on the screen.  Then, within a document, select some text by pressing and dragging the pen tip across the text.
Contents IndexContents 13Index13USING THE PEN BUTTONSThe Bamboo One pen has two buttons.  Each button has a programmable function that is selected when you press the button.  You can use a pen button whenever the pen tip is within 5 mm (0.20 inch) of the tablet active area.  You do not have to touch the pen tip to the tablet in order to use a button.To assign new button functions, see customizing the pen buttons.The upper pen button is set to RIGHT CLICK, and the lower button is set to PAN/SCROLL by default.• Use RIGHT CLICK to bring up application-specific or icon-specific menus.•PAN/SCROLL lets you position a document or image in any direction within the active window by pressing the pen button and moving the pen tip across the tablet’s active area.  As you move the pen tip, the document or image is repositioned to follow the direction of pen movement on the tablet.  Release the pen button or lift the pen tip from the tablet surface when you are done.In some application windows the document will precisely follow the screen cursor as you move the pen tip, while in others it will simply move in the same general direction as the screen cursor. Hint: Set a pen button to DOUBLE CLICK.  This is easier than tapping twice with the pen tip.Example of right click on computer display.Example of pan/scroll movement on computer display.
Contents IndexContents 14Index14WRITING AND INKING WITH PRESSURE SENSITIVITYThe Bamboo One pen responds to your hand movements, enabling you to create natural-looking pen and brush strokes.  The digital ink tools in Microsoft Windows 7, Vista, and Office 2007 or later, as well as the drawing tools in many graphics applications, respond to the pressure you place on the pen.  For example, sliders are used in some applications to vary line characteristics (width, color, and opacity).  These characteristics can be controlled much better by the pen’s pressure sensitivity – you can vary line width, blend colors, and change opacity with the pressure you exert upon the pen.EYE-HAND COORDINATION EXERCISEThis exercise is designed to retrain your eye-hand coordination for using the pen:1. Open any graphics application.  Use the line tool to sketch a rectangular grid with line spacings of about 20-25 mm (3/4 to 1 inch).  You can use your traditional mouse to do this.2. Choose a free-hand tool in your application and use the pen to add a dot at each grid intersection.3. Place an X at each grid intersection.4. Now sketch a circle around each intersection.5. Clear your screen and make a simple illustration of your own.  The more you use your pen, the easier drawing and navigation will become.To write, ink, or sketch with pressure sensitivity, move the pen along the surface of the tablet while applying various amounts of pressure downward on the tip of the pen.  Press hard for thick lines or dense color.  Press gently for thin lines or softer color.  Note that some applications require that you first select a pressure-sensitive tool from the application’s tool palette.  To adjust the tip feel, see adjusting tip feel and double-click.Visit our web site for a list of applications that support pressure.  See product information.
Contents IndexContents 15Index15WORKING WITH THE TABLETThe middle area of the tablet is the working, or active, area for the pen.  Rest your hand on the tablet and then work with the pen on the active area of the tablet just as if you were using a ball point pen on a piece of paper.  Wherever you place your pen on the tablet active area, the screen cursor will jump to the corresponding point on the screen.  See using the cordless pen for more information.
Contents IndexContents 16Index16CUSTOMIZINGAfter you master the basics of using your Bamboo One pen tablet, you may want to customize the way the pen or tablet works.  This chapter describes how to use the Bamboo control panel to adjust your tablet and pen settings.Opening the control panelControl panel overviewControl panel settingsOPENING THE CONTROL PANELTo open the Bamboo control panel, use the Bamboo One pen on the tablet: •Windows.

Contents IndexContents 19Index19ADJUSTING TIP FEEL AND DOUBLE-CLICKOpen the Bamboo control panel.  To create broad inking strokes or to click with a light touch, use a soft tip setting.  For maximum control while inking thin lines, use a firm tip setting.When checked, an audible “click” sound will be heard whenever a pen click occurs and your computer speakers are turned on.Customizes the amount of pressure needed to click, write, or ink.  Drag the slider to a softer or firmer setting.Adjusts the size of the double-click area and the double-click speed.  A larger setting makes double-clicking easier.Hints: • Use a soft TIP FEEL for a wider range of pressure values with most pressure-sensitive applications.• In some applications, a soft pressure setting can make the pen overreact – any small press on the pen is magnified on the screen.  If you experience this, try a firmer TIP FEEL setting.• To make double-clicking easier, expand the tap area that accepts a double-click (the double-click distance).A large double-click distance may cause a delay at the beginning of brush strokes in some drawing applications.  This may also cause a delay at the beginning of a drag action or inking stroke.  If you notice such effects, try setting a smaller double-click distance and using a pen button to double-click (see using the pen buttons).
Contents IndexContents 20Index20CUSTOMIZING THE PEN BUTTONSOpen the Bamboo control panel to change the functions assigned to the pen buttons.  Each pen button can be set for a variety of mouse functions; the pull-down menus enable you to choose the function that will be performed.Select the function to perform when pressing  the upper or lower pen button.When you bring the pen tip within 5 mm (0.20 inch) of the tablet surface without touching the tablet and press the upper or lower pen button, the selected function occurs.Hint: To make double-clicking easier, set a pen button to double-click automatically by selecting DOUBLE CLICK.You can change the SIDE SWITCH MODE for the way you like to use the pen when making right-clicks or other click functions.

Contents IndexContents 40Index40CARING FOR YOUR TABLET AND PENKeep your Bamboo One pen and tablet surface clean.  Dust and dirt particles can stick to your pen and cause excessive wear to the tablet surface.  Regular cleaning with a soft, damp cloth will help to prolong the life of your tablet surface and pen; you can also dampen the cloth using a very mild soap diluted with water.  Do not use volatile liquids, such as paint thinner or benzene, as they may damage the plastic case.Keep your tablet and pen in a clean, dry place and avoid extremes in temperature.  Room temperature is best.  Also, your pen and tablet are not made to come apart.  Twisting the pen case can break the pen.  Taking apart the product will void your warranty.Important: Take care to never spill liquids onto the tablet or pen.  Be especially careful of getting the pen buttons and tip wet – they contain sensitive electronic parts that will fail if liquid enters them.REPLACING THE PEN TIPThe pen tip (nib) will wear with normal use.  Replace the pen nib when it gets too short – less than 1 mm (.04 inch) – or develops a flat point.Clasp the old nib with a tweezer, needle-nosed pliers, or similar instrument and pull it straight out of the pen.  Then slide the end of the new nib straight into the barrel of the pen – firmly push the nib until it stops.Warning: Prevent children from swallowing the pen tip or pen buttons.  The pen tip (nib) or pen buttons may accidentally be pulled out if children are biting on them.To order replacement parts, see ordering parts and accessories.Pen nibAvailable as optional spare part.  See ordering parts and accessories.1 mm (.04 inch) or less)Important: When the Bamboo One pen is not in use, place it on the pen rest or lay it flat on your desk.  To maintain the sensitivity of your pen, do not store the pen in a container where it will rest on the tip.

Contents IndexContents 52Index52GLOSSARYActive area.  The drawing area of the tablet where your Bamboo One pen is detected.Aspect.  The ratio between the vertical and horizontal dimension of the tablet or display.Click force.  The amount of force you must apply to the tip of your pen for a click to occur.Digital ink.  A broad category that typically describes handwritten content which has been created using pen-based input on a computer.  This handwritten content takes the form of sketches, ink mark-up, or handwriting.  The handwriting can optionally be converted to typewritten text or simply left alone for use in its original format.  Depending on your system and application settings, the handwritten text you make with digital ink can be converted on-the-fly or at another time.Double-click distance.  The maximum distance (in screen pixels) that the cursor can move between clicks and still be accepted as a double-click.  Increasing the double-click distance makes double-clicking easier, but may cause a delay in brush strokes in some graphics applications.Journal.  A Microsoft Windows application that electronically simulates a physical journal pad, but with the advantages of digital note-taking.  For example, you can create quick sketches and jot handwritten notes that can be converted to text and sent on to colleagues for digital mark-up.  Journal includes a variety of pen, marker, and highlighter tools.  Additionally, your handwritten content is searchable within Journal.Mapping.  The relationship between your Bamboo One pen position on the tablet and the cursor position on the display screen.Modifier.  Modifier keys include SHIFT, ALT, and CTRL for Windows, or SHIFT, CONTROL, COMMAND, and OPTION for Macintosh.

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.Tablet PC Input Panel (TIP).  The Microsoft Windows 7 and Vista Tablet PC Input Panel enables you to use your Bamboo One pen to create handwritten notes or work with an on-screen keyboard.  The Input Panel dynamically converts your handwriting to text.  The information you create can then be inserted into other documents, spreadsheets, or illustrations.
