Graphic Tablets and Dual Monitor setup

[JamesTaylor]

hi all,

 

i've just started having a play with using a graphics tablet. However, i have a dual monitor setup and can only use the tablet pen to navigate around my main screen which is a serious anoyance as i have all my menu's on the 2nd screen and have to revert back to the mouse every time i want to move across.

 

is this the case with all graphic tablets or does anyone know a trick to get round the problem?

 

the graphic tablet is a low priced packeard bell version - cheap as were just tring them out at present - could this be the problem with it being low spec?

 

Thanks

 

James.

I have a wacom on a dual screen system and do not have such issues. Have you checked all tablet settings?

I use two screens with a wacom and it spans over both of them. Funny thing is I'd actually like to know how to set it up to only work on one screen. Since the tablet has the same approximate aspect ratio as one screen that would be nice, and also I only do painting on one screen.
