Re: [Gimp-user] Using Tablet AND Mouse together ??

["Ross A. Martinek" <triarius att net>]

I'm right handed, and use both stylus and mouse, depending on what I need to do and which is more 
efficient—just what works for me. Find what works for you.

In that light: you can probably adjust the settings for the stylus to make this easier. Many tablets allow 
mode switching. One mode for actual drawing or painting, the other for interface manipulation. This should be 
covered in the documentation for the tablet. RTFreakingM and play with the settings until you find a 
combination that works for you. This will also familiarize you with the tablet. Like any tool, it requires 
practice and some experimentation to master its use.
