I use just about 1/3 of my tablet.

Question of all those full area players out there. 1. How big is your tablet?
2. How the hell can you only move your wrist if your get a jump with a 4 corners of the screen? My wrist hurts when I bring it to the bottom right hand corner (my hand is around bottom middle-right hand side of the tablet), and my pen gets too high for it to register when I move my pen to the top of my tablet.

it really does depend on how you grip your pen

I tried full area for a couple of weeks before my break and after I picked up osu! again, but I didn't get comfortable with it and changed my area to a smaller size again.

Would it be better to have windowed game and full area or full screen game with smaller area on tablet in peoples opinions?

I have this 6x8" off-brand tablet blessed with the inability to make the working area smaller :/ full area for me.
I play 1024x768 windowed in the center of a 1280x1024 screen as well.

If you think about it the larger your tablet area the more accurate your movements will be. Your margin of error should go down, That said I play on a full tablet with a smaller window as with dual screen's stuff sometimes tries to open behind the game but won't appear on top so I have to spend ages doing Alt+Tab to get be able to Insert osu! to the hidden Icon's tray. This issue only happens on Dual screen's not sure why.

On topic

I use full tablet and hover. Learned to hover so that I don't have to buy nibs

Some people must be moving their pen less than two centimeters! At the same time, "full area" is sometimes too big... Really depends the your tablet. On my (slightly old) Wacom Bamboo - Medium, this area that I use is 11cm wide. I figured I would start at a reasonable size... One where it forced me to move my hand. Something that I read a while back about handwriting said that some people move their whole arm when writing and some just move their fingers... You're more likely to have messier handwriting if you write with your fingers supposedly. I write with my fingers but I try to force myself to a larger area on Osu so maybe it'll actually be useful to me one day with my drawing!

I'm pretty sure that small precise repetitive movements with your wrist is a fast track to RSI anyway.

1920x1080 btw. I've no idea what the benefit of having force proportions off would be. I don't like moving up and down my tablet as much as left/right so square would be a nightmare!

I'm still a noob but I find jumps fairly easy to hit accurately at this size. I'm struggling a little on smaller circles on some maps with HR so I can't imagine wanting to have a smaller tablet area!

So i figured out the Coordinates thing for the tablet (got the ctl 480 today). Basically 1 inch=2533 Counts so if you leave top/left at 0 then Bottom = Length and Right =Width. knowing this is useful for people who are trying to moving up to full area or just want to try other tablet exact areas.

Just a example i play 5in by 2.5in area so i would put.

top=0 Bottom=6332
left=0 Right=12665

Wacom CTL-470, 1024 x 768 fullscreen scaled
Full screen is simply too big, I only use it when I write something
And the sensitivity somehow feels slower on a larger area (correct me if I'm wrong)

I have no problem doing jumps or streams, the only problem is not being about to follow the beats properly
I do intend to increase the size, millimetre by millimetre when I have the chance to try it

Hi everyone, most tips to improve on osu! can be found here

trust me going up is the best feeling ever. you might feel slower and get tired easier, but the aiming pays off. i used to have a tiny ass area and was super inaccurate with my aim even if the speed was top notch. go as large as you can without it being uncomfortable/needing unnecessary arm movement. you could either up it a little everyday and get through the difference in warm up or start right over.

^what is that Windows XP

This is what I'm using now~

I think someone said that full area is better so I went for this with fullscreen osu!, I think large areas are fun, it sort of feels like the pen is dancing on the tablet when you're doing a fast song.

Just switched from mouse to tablet today.

It's pretty hard to get used to it, but it's definitely more fun to use.

Hmm idk I kinda like it like this cos when I played with mouse my sensitivity was pretty high so it felt weird having a bigger area. I guess i'll try increasing it a bit.
