KB Gear Pablo Tabet vs Moho v5.x under Mac OSX Tiger

Post by gswallow »

The issue look sto be one for the OS, but I am looking for any and all answers/ideas I can find.

Am using Moho v5.x on a Dual 1.8GHz G5 PowerMac running OSX 1.4 and have had this Pablo Tablet that I got during a close out. It came with Windows and Mac OS-9 drivers. Tiger sees the tablet and pen. Moho even recognizes 'Presure Sesitivity,' but button toggling is backwards.

I must let off the button to draw and hold to move pointer without drawing. Backwards and just can't get the knack to do this backward motion. Especially when moving across the desktop. Losed button picks up everything in ita' path and randomly drops around the office.

Thanks in adavnce for any ideas yo may offer.

Hmm, that's very strange. I'm afraid that I don't have any information about this. Do you have other programs that make use of pen pressure? If so, do they respond correctly to the pen? (Trying to see if we can eliminate driver problems.)

No other programs. I do believe it is a driver issue. Have posted support messages to Apple and an OSX sight with no luck. Will start looking into FreeBSD next, maybe someone there.

As for other programs, no others use pressure; e.g. Blender 3D. As is the table/pen acts as if pressure is left-click and button is right-click on the desktop: lightly moving pen as if mouse, pressure on pen as if left-click (drag), button on pen as if right-click (options menu).

Must also press Esc twice to clear the use of tablet and use my 4 button Marble. Tried reversing the marble configuration (in case of conflict) and no change in tablet behavior.
