wacom latency? 2004-04-07 - By Kris Rivel
Back
Anyone who has a Wacom, try this: Simply set your playback speed to "real
time" and set the playback to loop as well. Hit play and try to stop the
playback by hitting the play button with the wacom pen....can't do
it.....only the mouse will stop the playback. This is what Sam is
referring to. I have the same issues. I have an Intuos 2 (USB) running on
WinXP, dual 3ghz with 2GB Ram, QuadroFX 1000. Also, if you start playback
with the pen, pressing the down arrow key on your keyboard does not stop
playback. Pressing down the arrow key only stops playback if it was
launched with the mouse.....very strange. Not a serious issue but it does
get quite annoying.
