Integrated applications
Some software applications may directly control ExpressKey or Touch Ring functions. When working with these integrated applications, the ExpressKeys or Touch Ring may perform differently than the function set in the Wacom Control Panel.
- When an ExpressKey setting is overridden by an application, the ExpressKey will automatically update, using either Application Defined or the new function name. Some or all of the ExpressKeys may be overridden, depending on the application.
- When an application overrides the Touch Ring, all Touch Ring modes are affected. If an application overrides only some of the available Touch Ring functions, the remaining mode(s) are set to Skip.
- An integrated application will control the ExpressKeys or Touch Ring only when that application is active and in the foreground. When you close that application or select a new application pane to work in, your Wacom Control Panel settings are returned to their previous state.
- To review the ExpressKey, Touch Ring, or pen settings for the current front-most application, set an ExpressKey to Settings and press the key at any time.
Applications that have been integrated will typically give you an opportunity to disable this functionality when first using your Wacom pen tablet with the application. Refer to your application documentation for specific details how to customize or disable this feature.
If that information is not available, you can use the Wacom Control Panel to create application-specific settings that will override the behavior of the integrated application.
