Mouse is relative so moving mouse mat is a use issue. However, tablet is an absolute device so holding the tablet is a bit different. If you draw on a paper, you turn te paper to get your strokes to run conveniently for your hand. Thats something I do holding my tablet. I tilt my head and turn the tablet to keep the alignment. My tablet positioning tends to depend on what I do. Scetching, creative painting etc, I hold my tablet and align it as I need with the screen. Just using as a mouse, I set it down next to my laptop and keep my other hand on the keyboard, but I do that only about 20% of the time. Mouse is much more convenient for such interaction. -- --Alexia _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
