Welcome to Making The Most Of Your Wacom, a 10-part series of videos full of tips and tricks for how to maximize your productivity and creativity with your Wacom, hosted by Pablo Muñoz Gómez. Pablo primarily uses ZBrush software, so many of the tips will be especially relevant for 3D sculpting! But they’ll also be useful no matter what creative software you use with your Wacom device. We’ll be covering everything from setting up and customising your pens to creating custom radial menus to using your Wacom accessories to the fullest.
Here’s what this series is going to cover:
- Tip 1: Mapping touch to a separate monitor
- Tip 2: Physically customising your pen
- Tip 3: Customising your pen buttons
- Tip 4: How to create custom radial menus
- Tip 5: How to use ‘Precision Mode’
- Tip 6: Creating advanced radial menus
- Tip 7: Mapping ExpressKeys to custom functions
- Tip 8: Essential Wacom tools for teaching
- Tip 9: Utilising other Wacom devices
- Tip 10: Backing up your custom Wacom settings
Tip #3: Customizing Your Pen Buttons
In Tip 2, Pablo showed how you can physically customized your Wacom pen. For Tip 3, he shares how he customises the buttons and functionality of the pens with the different software he uses to create his work.
From Pablo: “Iʼm also going to cover how you can customise different pens (in case you have older pens from other devices) with different shortcuts so you can have access to various features and tools depending on the stage of the process you are in.”
