Graphics Tablet Problem

Postby Warrior 4 Jesus » Thu Oct 26, 2006 1:53 am

I have a Graphire3 6x8 Graphics Tablet. I haven't used it for a couple weeks and the screen mapping is off. I don't know what to do.

The workable drawing area has shrunk to about two thirds its original size.
Please help!

Thanks

Is there any possibility the computer is reading it as a 4 x 5 tablet instead? I don't know if there's a setting for that sort of thing. It was just the first thing I thought of when I read your post...

Oops. Don't worry about it. My computer has two USB ports and I had it plugged into the first (I believe it only works properly with the second USB port). Thanks for your help anyway, mate!

I have a Graphire4 tablet and for some reason it isn't working with Photoshop 6 at all. It worked when I first got it, but since then nothing. The light at the top corner, turns green when the mouse and pen touch the work area but that's it. Any ideas what could be wrong?

tablets.. they can be a great help. But they are like DEVIL SPAWN. Solid armor mine does the same thing. Occasionaly. Its so weird.

I try wigglign the wire or re plugging it in and sometimes it works.

I dunno.

Tell me if you get any other info on it.

Thanks Vern, I've tried pluggin the USB cord into the open 6 ports I have (out of 8) the other two are for the keyboard and mouse. And still nothing, the only thing I can think of is probably re-installing the software for it. This sucks the darn thing isn't even a year old.
