The driver in Animator Pro was made for the (now) old SD-xxx tablets. These tablets did not have a pressure sensitive stylus with side switch. The user only had the choice between a pressure stylus without side switch or a click stylus with side switch. The supportet data format is WACOM II. The new tablets do have a pressure sensitive stylus with side switch. However, because the tablet (initialised by the rather old driver) runs in WACOM II mode not in the new WACOM IV mode, the user has to make a choice. Nevertheless, as the only pressure sensitve tool is the air brush, and this level of pressure support is quite humble, I used it as a click stylus with side switch. The advantage is, that you can call the popup menues with the side switch. Dieter
