HEy

I just added a second monitor to my system, and this is really nice being able to move all the pallettes and all over to one of the monitors, and leaving the image full in the other. My problem is with my Wacom though (not really a problem, but I was wondering how others used this)

In the control panel, I can set the Wacom to control accross both monitors, or to only work in one or the other. My problem is when I set it to both monitors everything is stretched out so much (since the tablet is now mapping accross twice the width, drawing a circle is now a squashed oval) I ended up setting it to work in only one monitor, and I have to grab the mouse to quickly move to the second one.

So,... for those of you using a tablet with multiple monitors,... what do you set yours at, or did you just get used to the stretched out aspect?

Using it strecthed out really, really sucks. You can stack you monitors and turn your tablet sideways, though. Roundeye does that and says that it works well for him.
