Are you able to see what you'er drawing on the tablet or can you only see what your doing on the computer?

The tablet is just a passive slate, so you have to draw on it while looking at your computer screen. The tablet does not display what you are drawing on it (even though it might look like a screen on some pictures!). But it's pretty easy to adjust to that way of drawing, and it is an invaluable tool for the price.

First...my apologies for the somewhat crazy review...I had no idea they would publish it! Second, to answer your question: The tablet's drawing surface can be adjusted to suit your screen, ie: the same as your mouse movements - move mouse 1 inch and the pointer/brush moves 2 inches (fast or slow). No, you only see you pen's movement on the screen...and with greater control than that with a mouse. You use a 'pen' that simulates a brush much unlike a mouse because you have pressure control. The tablet acts as a 'live', oversized, mouse pad, giving you much greater control of your digital art. That's the only way I can describe it. Hope that helps...if not, I'm back to my psychiatrist on Monday...take care.

No, this is a drawing tablet for a computer. What it does is allow you to draw digitally (when hooked up to a computer) in the same way you would draw on a pad of paper.

Daniel, you can't use it without a computer, the tablet itself acts like a second monitor with touch capabilities. Hope this helps

No. I have been using this tablet for a week and I draw with my hand partially on the tablet and it does not effect the drawing at all.

This is not a stand-alone tablet. It essentially acts like a monitor you can write on. You will have to install whatever software you want to use on your computer in order to use it. There is another version (Cintiq Companion) that has the android operating system on it. I am not sure if illustrator has an app for android.

You can use the tablet to draw images and shapes. However, the solution depends on what SOFTWARE you use to make the images & shapes. For example, if you use software like Inkscape or GIMP, then you can convert those images and shapes to be vectorized. The tablet will work with any computer to the best of my knowledge.

It will only let you draw vector art and then import into illustrator. You want a Wacom tablet.

you can use mouse or pen to navigate windows or any cad or paint program, I use jfdraw and vectorengineer it takes a little time to get the hang of it like touch pen to pad is like a left click and going to the corner of the pad to move the mouse to a corner trips me up a little ect...

No. It's just to trace an existing drawing of something below your tracing sheet. It is just lights, it has no computer inside.

This tablet works with Illustrator, Photoshop and Corel Draw, not to mention a few others, it's large and you can 'trace' your drawing by laying it on the tablet and going over the lines with the 'pen'. Very nice.

Not that I know of. I do think you may have to have a certain software for that. However, I have no idea what software does that. All I do know from my experience with it is that when you're drawing on the WACOM what ever you see on the WACOM screen is what appears on your larger monitor. Scrolling in and out with the WACOM is easy too if you have a compatible software. :)

I'm not exactly sure. I use the tablet for art projects as a starter. It can be used in place of your mouse though, for better accuracy. For a while, I had a very old mouse that wasn't working too well, & was using the pen as the mouse (you just hover it over the tablet & press to click, & it has the right/left button functions on it as well). Wacom, Cintiq & Intuos tablets are very different, & this was/is my first one. I'm sorry I can't be of much help.

You can only see it on the monitor (PC). It does allow for more natural drawing but will take some getting used to. It has pressure sensitivity so if you use it Adobe's Photoshop or Illustrator it opens up the ability to change line weight with the brushes.

There are many software programs that allow you to paint or draw on a computer. In these programs you first create a surface to work on. This usually consists of a blank white area. To draw or paint you would then click on a tool option such as a brush or pencil, select a color, and then click and drag your the cursor over the top of the canvas. You can draw with a mouse--but it is awkward for many reasons. Most people buy a digital tablet which comes with a pen (stylus) that controls the cursor on their computer. With a stylus you have many more options on how the strokes are made and it is much easier to draw with because you hold the stylus like you would a regular pen. Some people, like myself, have a pressure sensitive laptop that comes with a stylus. This enables me to use the stylus directly on the monitor of my laptop. I can adjust settings so that if I push harder on the stylus my brush stroke gets darker, or wider, or both. That is something you cannot do with a mouse. To change the line thickness with a mouse you have to go to the brush size and change it. Digital painting is a very big area right now. It is amazing what some people can create. I hope this helps.

You can use it on anything with a usb port, the proper drivers (on a disk that comes with the tablet or on the company website), and a drawing program.

This is not a tablet in that sense...this is an input device for graphic design on a computer...not an android tablet.

It's the kind that plugs into a computer and what you draw shows up on the screen. :)
