Managing Windows 7 : Configuring a Pen or Touch Computer, Managing Pen Settings

5/24/2013 5:45:56 PM

1. Configuring a Pen or Touch Computer

If you have a Tablet PC or another system that uses pen or touch input, you can configure the computer so that it works best for you and the way you use it. Unless you want to change the way things are working, you'll need to configure most of these settings only once.

Change the Settings

  1. Tap or click the Start button, type tablet in the Search box of the Start menu, and choose Tablet PC Settings from the menu to display the Tablet PC Settings dialog box.

  2. On the Display tab, tap or click the Setup button if the display isn't properly set up yet. Click or tap the Calibrate button to align your touch locations with the positions interpreted by the display.

  3. On the Other tab, specify which hand you use to enter most of your input.

  4. Tap here to open the Pen And Touch dialog box to adjust your pen, your flicks (navigational and editing gestures), and your handwriting, touch, and panning (touch scrolling) options.

  5. Tap here to open the Options dialog box for the Input Panel, and adjust the way you want the Input Panel to work.

  6. Tap OK.

Tip

The Tablet PC Settings dialog box is available only if Windows recognizes your computer as having pen or touch input.

2. Managing Pen Settings

If you have a computer that has the capability of using pen input—a Tablet PC or a computer with a digitizer pad, for example—you can adjust the way it responds to the pen.

Set the Pen Options

  1. Tap the Start button, type pen in the Search box of the Start menu, and choose Pen And Touch from the menu to display the Pen And Touch dialog box.

  2. On the Pen Options tab, select a pen action.

  3. Click Settings.

  4. In the Settings dialog box, adjust the settings you want. Each of the pen actions has different settings.

  5. Use the pen action on the test graphic to test your settings. Adjust the settings if necessary.

  6. Click OK.

  7. Repeat steps 2 through 6 for other pen actions.

  8. Select or clear the check boxes for other pen options.

  9. Click OK.
