It's got a small drawing area (smaller than all the alternatives with the same price) and the only reason it costs so much is because you're paying extra for those bundled programs it comes with. Read affiliate disclosure here.I don't recommend the low-end Wacom Intuos. Personally, I find that the drawing tablet works best with the Draw Freehand Lines tool and the Calligraphy Pen, but it could also prove useful for other lesser-used tools like the Eraser. It’s perfect for when you make a bad stroke and want to quickly erase it without having to drop the pen and reach for your mouse and/or keyboard. As previously mentioned, I recommend programming them for undo and redo. The two buttons on the side can be programmed however you’d like. Pressing the tip of the pen against the pad performs the same function as a left mouse click. You will notice that the tip of your pen doubles as a button, and there’s also two buttons on the side of the pen. For example, if you hover the pen to the upper right side of the tablet, the cursor will move to the upper right side of your screen. You will notice the cursor on your screen moving along with it. Simply hover the pen an inch or two away from the pad and move it around. The pad/tablet represents the entirety of your screen resolution, and the pen functions how a mouse would. The tablet comes with a drawing pad, USB wire, and a battery operated pen.ĭrawing tablets function virtually the same way a mouse does.

It gives you everything you need - nothing more, nothing less - and the price reflects it. Since Wacom is one of the most trusted brands in drawing tablets, this Wacom Intuos tablet is the perfect mix of value and quality, and in my opinion, the best drawing tablet for Inkscape.
