Summagrid VII 19
Lite Touch Pen
The lite touch pen is available only in the cordless version. It is similar to the click tip pen,
except that it calls for, as the name implies, a lighter touch, without the click.
Learning Basic Movements
The Summagrid VII transducers provide all the basic movements of a mouse, including
clicking, double-clicking and dragging.
Clicking and Double-Clicking
Clicking is the action of making a selection. To click, place the transducer or move the
screen pointer using the transducer, to the item to be selected. Tap the pen or press
Button 0 on the cursor. A double-click requires you to quickly tap the pen or press the
button two times, while the tool remains in the same place. You can also double-click by
pressing the pen or cursor button that has been defined as a double-click button (see
TabletWorks Help).
Dragging
Dragging is the action of moving the transducer during a selection. To drag, click on an
object, but instead of lifting the pen tip or releasing the cursor button, hold it down while
moving the transducer, or corresponding object on the screen, to the desired new location.
Caring for the Tablet and Transducer
Follow these precautions at all times to avoid damaging your Summagrid VII:
 Avoid discharging static electricity to the tablet.
 Do not place heavy objects on the tablet surface.
 Do not use sharp objects; such as compasses or knives, on the tablet surface.
 Do not use the tablet surface for any purpose other than drawing, tracing or
digitizing.
 Do not drill holes on any part of the digitizer or controller.
Cleaning the Tablet
To clean the tablet’s surface, use a soft, non-abrasive cloth. Hardened dirt can be removed
with a slightly dampened cloth. Do not clean pencil lines with a soft cleanser or pencil
eraser. This could create an undesirable shiny spot on the tablet’s surface that cannot be
removed.
