Tablet issues

Problem Fix
Status bar says Mouse (no pressure) while drawing Turn on Use Windows Ink in the tablet driver, then restart Shapeaway
Pressure works but feels too light or too heavy Adjust the pressure curve (Tool tab › Pen)
Pressure changes size and you don’t want it to Press P to switch pressure-controls-size off
Barrel buttons don’t orbit or pan Set them to the default mouse buttons in the driver (lower: right click, upper: middle click), or use Alt + drag to orbit
Eraser does nothing It inverts the tool; check it isn’t mapped to a keystroke in the driver
Strokes are wobbly Turn on Lazy mouse (Tool tab › Stroke)

Pen displays and screen tablets work the same way, through Windows Ink.
