Click on Wacom Tablet to open the panel.
If no tablet is detected, you’ll be asked to Please plug in or turn on your Wacom tablet. Click Bluetooth in the sidebar to connect a wireless tablet.
Choose between tablet (or absolute) mode and touchpad (or relative) mode. For tablet mode, switch Tablet Mode to on.
In absolute mode, each point on the tablet maps to a point on the screen. The top left corner of the screen, for instance, always corresponds to the same point on the tablet.
In relative mode, if you lift the stylus off the tablet and put it down in a different position, the pointer on the screen doesn’t move. This is the way a mouse operates.
