Does the resting part of your drawing hand ever get miscounted as a touch command?

Hasn't happened to me. Occasionally it would make the cursor jiggle a little when I'm hovering the pen so I turned off touch gestures. This is because I have a laptop and I just alternate between the touchpad and the tablet. Personal preference.

It can, but there is switch to disable the touch. It is on the top right. Just slide the switch over to the right, and the touch capability is disabled.

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.

I have not had that issue before. It seems as long as the tip is within an inch or two above the drawing surface the tablet knows to ignore the touch that the resting hand would produce. If such an issue did arise there is a switch on the tablet near the top right corner that turns off the touch sensitivity entirely.

It does not affect it. The pen takes precedence. if the pen is no where near you can use your fingers for touch. Honestly touch is not amazing so use your laptop or mouse as a gesture tool.

No!!! I recently purchased two spares, because my husband had one of these that died. The old one had a nice quiet scroll wheel, specifically when he took the action of pressing down on the scroll wheel and releasing it. He does that a lot when using Sketch Up. Both of the spares have an audible "pop!" sound when the pressure on the wheel is released. Worse than any other mouse we have ever used.

No on both points. however it can save a step by step on the same drawing. this way you can remove layers on the completed drawing.

Absolutely. Right in the manual. I get the impression that maybe (and just maybe) earlier ones of this model did not have this option. If you have any problems activating this feature, just message me back or call or email Barska. You can also friend them on Facebook and they have answered questions for me there very promptly. The more I have mine, the more I appreciate getting it. And be sure to register several fingers and three or four angles on each finger. Makes for much more reliable openings on the first try!

I know what you mean. It can be frustrating. If you loaded the program setting properly, even then the pen sometimes has a mind of it's own. Sometimes it's how your holding it, but I never figured out what makes it act that way. When it does work, I'm relieved. Just some kind of tricky situation.

yes, the touch pad does not have a division separating it from the usual area along the bottom! usually you use the left side as the left side click of a mouse and the right side as the right side click button of a mouse. on this computer the whole touch pad is the same to the touch; if you want to click the bottom right side, you cannot feel the cross between it and the left side. they put a line in between the two but there is no touch sensation as your finger crosses the line; at least they should have etched the 1/2" line so you can feel it! I got around it by placing a small amount of glue on the line so I can feel it when I want to "click" the bottom right side of the pad.

It can affect things technically I suppose. The point that the pressure happens on the screen first shows up. If you are aware of it there is not a problem. You just can't rest on it really. I haven't had an issue with that. I think it reads fingertip and stylus better.

I have only one hand, the left one. So I can't say for sure but the wrist rest is in the right spot for me. The legs are adjustable for 3 angles. It's been a great keyboard for me.

no, it doesnt. i tested it on ubuntu and mint. it acts like the left button is always being pressed (or like you pressed the pen against the screen and never removed it from there).

Yes, my hand rests on it the whole time I'm drawing and I am a big guy (6'6'' 250lbs). No problems at all

As long your pen tip is close to the tablet your tablet will ignore other stimuli so it should be fine, but there is an option to disable touch sensitivity if you want to. It's what I did, I would too often lift my pen while drawing and accidentally make marks with my hand and it got annoying.

It's activated from the front Sarah, using your middle finger (applying) pressure on the "button" that's built into the grip, & the button is concealed internally. It's a little ironic that your middle finger activates it :-) I love mine it's not in the way nor does it leave an awkward grip of your hand or get in the way at all. Hopefully that helped you out.

the only programmable thing I have been able to do with it is, use a s-pen gesturing program to turn off the touch screen ( so only pen works ). as far as I know there is no way to program it on its own. it would be up to the art program you sue to let you apply a setting.

I held my object together pressing with my index finger counting to 10 and it held. If your object is large enough to clamp, you may want to do that and spare the pressure on your fingertip.

No it doesn't. As soon as the pen tip is near the work space, the pen is the priority so touching the pad when the pen tip is near the pad won't do anything.

I agree with the other reviewer as far as drawing or writing long hand. The rubber tip produces friction. However, it is much easier to use the virtual keyboard since there's more control over what key is being pressed.
