Corel Photo Paint - using graphics tablet with photopaint 8


Expert: Neal Ziring - 4/14/2004

Question
just bought a graphics tablet and i cannont get the pen pressure to work in photopaint. i went to the pen docker changed the pen size 10 to 11 times and the line is the same, and i checked my tablet settings and it says the pen pressure is working. any thoughts?

Answer
Artman,

  I haven't had a pressure-sensitive pen on a Corel
product since version 5, so I'm not very up to date
on this topic.

  First, I would try changing the pen size by more
than 1.  Change it to 30 or 40, and then try drawing
lines with different amounts of pressure.  Also, make
sure that you have installed the most recent tablet
driver from the manufacturer, and make sure that you
have configured PhotoPaint to make use of the tablet.
(In 10 and later it is automatic, I don't know about 8.)

  Other than that, I don't know.  Sorry.  You could try
writing to Corel, through the web interface at
http://support.corel.com/.
