Explanation
As most of you know, you can choose between two modes in your tablet driver settings: either absolute (pen) or relative (mouse). Short descriptions coming up.
- pen mode: No matter where you move the pen, the mouse pointer will jump to the position on screen relative to the pen's position on/over the tablet.
- mouse mode: You can put the pen anywhere, it will continue to move from the place it left off before. Move your normal mouse and you'll understand.
Backstory to this poll
While in school, my tablet with me, I discovered there is osu! on all the computers. So I immediately plugged the tablet in and... It's working as a mouse. I don't know the administrator password, meaning I can't install drivers, so I just had to deal with it.
Used the same settings as home, except it continues where it left off instead of jumping everywhere. It felt natural, like it would work normally. As stated before, the settings are the same and still, with the exact same effort I managed to achieve much better scores, especially with spinners. Now, I will just increase the sensitivity on my home computer (it actually always felt a little slow) and not change modes. Yet, I am very curious about the opinion of others on this, so that's the reason why I made this poll.
