1.18 Skew Correction Command

1.18.1 Description

The Skew command is used to align the tablet to a drawing placed upon it by using
two points on the drawing as the reference “X-axis”.

1.18.2 How to Use

After setting the drawing on the tablet, send the <ESC>x command. The tablet will
stop transmitting reports and emit a tone to signify that it is ready for the first point.
If possible, this first point should be the origin of the drawing. Place the cursor over
this point and push any button. The tablet will emit a tone to signify that the tablet
is ready for the second point. This point must be on a line parallel to the X-axis from
the first point. Place the cursor over this point and push any button. The tablet will
emit a third tone and resume transmitting data. All of the data will be adjusted so
that the first point is the origin and the two points together define the X-axis.

If the first point selected is not the origin, use the <ESC>F1 “User Defined Origin”
command after performing the skew correction.
