Operating modes provided for controlling how the pen affects the system cursor If neither of the above works please see also the Pen Gap FAQ When it appears click on Backup settings on the left, and then 'Reset settings' (ringed in red below) and wait till it finishes. This is done via the Wacom Desktop Center which you can find by searching via your Start menu. If the inking is significantly further away, maybe even off the signature capture window, then the normal remedy is to remove user preferences. If the inking is only a few millimetres away from the point of the pen then you probably need to calibrate your Wacom device via the Wacom Tablet Properties control panel. When signing on a DTU (or other Wacom device which extends the Windows desktop) the ink is not in line with the pen Solution Inking is out of line with the pen Problem These samples illustrate the basic principle - further programming work would be required to create an application suitable for local requirements. The following two programs which show examples of this: Please note however that STU mode does not allow concurrent input on the PC monitor and the DTU - its primary purpose is to prevent the DTU operator from taking over the system cursor except in pre-specified applications.Īn alternative solution would be to write a Wintab application which allows the pen to operate independently of the mouse and keyboard by creating a dummy cursor for the pen. In conjunction with STU mode you can also use CXO_SYSTEM within your Wintab application to prevent the cursor from moving with the pen.Īlternatively there is a registry setting called SyncCursor which can be used with the Signature SDK or sign pro PDF to achieve the same end (during signature capture).įor further details on SyncCursor please see the Signature SDK API reference manual which is provided in the 'documentation' folder of the Signature SDK download file (available from ). In this scenario the PC operator would start the relevant application when ready and move it to the DTU - then the DTU user would be able to operate it with the pen.įor further details please see the DTU Operating Modes guide. One way of getting round this problem is to configure the DTU for use in what is called 'STU mode' - this means that it will only work with pre-specified applications which are definable on the Wacom tablet control panel.

In addition Windows can only accept user input from the application or window which has the current system focus (selected by means of the cursor) and it is not possible for two applications or windows to have focus at the same time. Normally it is not possible for two users to operate separately on the same Windows session because this requires two system cursors and Windows does not allow this. Ensure that the pen operates separately from the system cursor
