[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I got to play with the Cintique' (sp?) 21" tablet/monitor at the
hasselblad ClearFocus seminar Thursday. Pretty impressive. Even
better than the hotkeys is that you have a touch-slider on each
side. The right was set to zoom in/out on the image, and the left to
increase/decrease the brush size. That was very efficient. Same
hotkey/slider set up on the Intuos3 series. I think I will be
getting an Intuos3 soon. Just need to decide on which size. They
were demonstrating the 6x11 wide model.
Can anyone tell me whether it Is awkward to use a 4:5 or 4:3 aspect
pad with a 16:10 widescreen monitor?
