The Tablet PC digitizer screen
doesn’t respond to the plastic
stylus I use on my PDA. You’re using the wrong input
device. Only the Motion Digitizer Pen lets
you write on the Tablet PC display.
The Tablet PC doesn’t respond to
other tablet pens or to a plastic
stylus.
The Motion Digitizer Pen tip
doesn’t line up with the arrow-
cursor when I tap on the screen. The pen and display need
recalibrating. Open the Motion Dashboard and
select Calibrate Digitizer.
When I write, I unintentionally click
the pen function button while I’m
writing with the pen. You’re pressing the pen button
with your thumb or finger when
you write or gripping the pen too
tightly and accidentally pressing
the pen button. This enables the
right-click function of the pen. Try these hints:
• Readjust how you hold the pen.
Place your fingers on either side
of the pen function button when
you write.
• Practice using the pen function
button with both your index fin-
ger and thumb to see which
you prefer.
• Relax your grip. Only a light
touch is needed to write with
the pen.
• Deactivate the pen right-click
function through Tablet and Pen
Settings. Instead, press and
hold the pen to the display sur-
face to right-click.
