[celestianna]

I bought an Intuos3 and am lovin it! But all these hotkeys and features have me a lil confused, so I got a couple questions for all ye professional/advanced users~ :D I might update the post a couple more times if I run into more stuff as I fiddle with it. :3

Hrmm.. I'm currently working on an Intuos3 on a mac, so set up is a little different, methinks.. (I'm also at work, so I can't see my set up. ^^;)

I believe you can set up your stylus options in the wacom preferences in the control panel? I know that it shows up in the mac's sys.prefs that way - and has a set up for both PS and Painter in there as well.

I haven't tried the express keys yet myself... I actually try to turn them off because I'm so used to using my keyboard to toggle between functions... and I always seem to mistakenly touch the buttons or slider. ^^; I should give it a try when I get home though and see if the shift key registers on the mac...

The Wacom preference thingie says that the stylus eraser tip is set to the eraser function in the drop-down menu... but it does the same thing as the pen tip when I try it in Photoshop. ;w; Similarly, when I have the eraser tool selected in Photoshop and use the pen tip, it erases instead of switching to a brush. So I dunno if I'm missing something, or if there's really nothing that can be done about it. X3
