Does anyone on list have a Wacom or similar drawing tablet?
Do you find it useful in conjunction with Inkscape work? Is the Wacom Bamboo with a 4 x 5 inch pad useful or does one need the larger and more expensive models? -- John Culleton "Create Book Covers with Scribus" http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

I use it a lot with the calligraphy tool. I find it quite useful. Certainly not necessary but nice to have. Joshua L.

A wacom can be quite handy. One difference the Intuos4 line has is that the stylus reports tilt in addition to pressure (It's also more sensitive). It also supports different pens, and has the back end of the stylus reported as a different input. If you're looking at the Bamboo line, be sure and check out the "Pen & Touch" model. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

It's interesting to use Wacom Intuos with Inkscape if calligraphy tool supports tilt and bearing sensibility. I can't test it, my tablet is a Graphire 3. Had anyone ever tested Intuos and Inkscape calligraphy tool together?

I have a graphire 3 that I use, but only with the calligraphy tool. I
find I have much better control wrt clicking, click-dragging and double clicking with a mouse than the tablet. Could just be a matter of getting past a learning curve. -Rob A> On 11/2/09, Silvana Marques <sil.marq@...> wrote: > It's interesting to use Wacom Intuos with Inkscape if calligraphy tool > supports tilt and bearing sensibility.

However the stock stylus does not also give rotation (a third additional axis), so I don't think that has been hooked in yet. Switching tools based on using the front or back end of the Intuos stylus is also in 0.47, and works fairly well. I think it needs more refinement though. There are several people active in the community who have been using the Intuos3, and I upgraded to an Intuos4 when they came out. So they both are well integrated and tested with the Calligraphy tool. After 0.47 is out, more work on enhancing input device support is planned. http://codewideopen.blogspot.com/2008/03/new-tablet-config.html http://codewideopen.blogspot.com/2008/03/tablet-test-area.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

Thanks for the answer, Jon. Intuos' tilt support by Inkscape is already a great feature! One more reason to buy a Intuos when I have money for it. And, with a little patience, we can get bearing support too (I didn't understand if it depends on Inkscape or Wacom drivers).
