Question: Can the pen/tablet be used instead of a mouse (surf web, double click etc)?
Document: (It can be used as a mouse, with the tablet. And, my regular mouse continues working at the same time... no hardware or software conflicts, and I'm using an inexpensive Win 7 eMachine computer. )So, in Photoshop, I was delighted when I could use this tablet (and its pen) to more precisely outline a path I wanted to crop.
I purchased this tablet two months ago. I must say I am truly in love with it. It installed flawlessly, and worked perfectly. I have used it with numerous programs for my web/graphic design business. I have used this tablet with Adobe Illustrator CS6, Photoshop CS6, Fireworks CS6, Muse CS6, InDesign CS6, Dreamweaver CS6, Web Plus X6, and MS Paint with no problems at all.
The software doesn't seem to add any sort of customization in preferences (MAC). I may have to double check on the disk for an actual software and not something that's driver driven.It's an off-brand (at least to my knowledge) so if you are looking for something for intense drawing sessions, this maaaaay not be what you want, but keep in mind I was used to a $400 Intuos so, of course, it's not going to be perfect.
Unless of course I wanted to throw more than double the money out for a comparable Wacom Bamboo Create Pen and Touch Tablet (CTH670).The only thing missing from this tablet (unless I am not doing something right) is the ability to use the opposite end to erase.
I can adapt. Supposedly the new design of the pen doesn't include an ON/OFF click button on the end, despite the wonky directions saying so. I contacted the manufacturer and they explained that the pen has an auto-sleep feature. There is no need to click it on or off to use the pen. Clever design? Or clever ruse? Anywho, the pen/tablet combo has an amazing amount of sensitivity.
After using this for a few hours the next day when I began to draw with it and had set the pen down for a few minutes I picked it up and it started to spaz out everywhere and started to randomly click the buttons on its own without me touching anything. Then when I tried dragging the pen across the tablet it would jump from place to place. It seems temperamental because it works on and off at this point. Maybe mine was a lemon I'm not sure.
Pulled up device manager to try & find it & force it to use the Huion drivers... no dice there, I've got several HID Compliant devices with no description to tell me which one is the tablet/pen etc. Unplugged it, several of these generic devices disappeared, but not all of them... so I have no idea which device to try & force the drivers on :/This company is a complete Joke, it's going back to Amazon promptly.
This tablet is a huge step up from just using a mouse. I would recommend this before any other name brand out there. The pressure sensitivity is amazing to say the least. Great price too. Only draw back is its not wireless, but the pen is. It also works with ANY art software.
There are some things I can do with the mouse that I don't need the tablet for. I'm still learning how to use it, but it's sloppy when it comes to freehand. I hate that I can't use this on my laptop and I have to need a CD to use the pen. I'll still use it to practice on.
The pen is a nice size and weight, has nice sensitivity, no skipping and it keeps up with me at a comfortable pace. And I also have a mouse, magic pad and a keyboard connected and I can jump from one to another and they all work perfectly.I can recommend this tablet as it works the way I wanted it to now, with the only caveat being I have only had it one day so I can't say how it will hold up in the long run.
Answer: Yes it can. I find that the ability to right-click is a bit clumsy, but because I have arthritis and tendinitis pretty bad in both arms, everything's a little clumsy to me. I hate surfing with the tablet pen and usually drop it for the mouse (which, the way I have things set up, is not overly inconvenient). However, if I'm just, say, switching to open reference tabs or scrolling or there's not a lot of work involved in Interneting with it, I do it with the tablet pen. That said, if you're going to have to type something in a search engine, it's almost easier to just put the pen down and use the mouse since you have to put the pen down anyway to type. This assumes that you have enough USB slots that you can leave a mouse plugged into your PC/laptop. I wouldn't recommend a lot of extra surfing online with the pen, though: because of its weight I think it could cause more harm than good by overuse. For comfort/ergonomic safety's sake, keep surfing to a minimum! But the short answer to your question is: yes!
