Hello,

I noticed a possible difference in area depending on the two tablets I have. I'm currently using a One by Wacom, previously an Xp-Pen-Star 03V2. The latter could pair the mouse mode with the tablet portion, so I was able to test very small areas. My One, at a minimum, allows me to use 2.5cm by 2.5cm. My question: Can tablets like Intuos pro or deco pro reach even smaller areas? Like 1cm by 1cm.?

Thank you to those who will take the time to check. ^^

Qestion out of simple curiosity AND practicality. I alternate between my full finger sensi (2.5cm) and a more conventional sensi (4-5cm).

It's the One by Wacom small version, isn't it? I'm using Wacom's software, you're using another one. Logically, we have the same tablet, so the difference only comes from the software.

Thank you for your answers. I've heard a little bit about it, what are its advantages, apart from this one? Can we have both this software and Wacom's?

Download both, I don't want one to interfere with the other, and Wacom's probably comes with the tablet drivers, hence my question. ^^ ^^


Well, on the other hand, it's not possible to have a normal website, translated, with only one link to download this damn software.? I didn't understand anything. (X

One of the only ones I haven't tried. (X Thank you. since you use the same tablet as me I have a question:

is it true that the tablet scratches easily and that you have to change the tips of the stylus often?
I've had it for a week, and sometimes it feels like it's scratching, but there's no scratch, it's just an impression. I'm also doing tests on the bottom right corner of my tablet to make sure, so far so good. At least, I think so.

i would reccomending using the same area placement at all times (x and y placement always the same)
after some time the tablet surface gets smooth and stops devouring your pen nibs
also you probably dont need to change them more than once a week or even a month if your area is smoothened out already

I've heard there's less latency as well.?

Ok for the tips, that's what I was thinking too, and the tablet looks wear-resistant anyway.

While I'm at it: A reddit post stipulates for the size of the area, from memory, something like 12cm extra large area, 10cm wide, 8cm normal, 5-6cm small, 4cm very small.
I play in 2.5. (X And I don't think it's small, or imprecise.
There are top players using a very small area.?

extra large is something like 45 - 48 cm wide.

large tablets are maybe 35cm wide

medium tablets 20-22

small tablets 15 cm wide.

smaller than that ur extra small.

for art i'd recommend full area and zoom out in the painting program if you want to do tiny strokes

I can't see myself playing Osu at 30cm wide on a graphics tablet. (X
