New Wacom Intuos 3 tablet. Problem with the 'eraser'

[JonZ_]

I got an Intuos 3 4x6 tablet, but the eraser on the pen still act like a normal pen. I plug the Intuos 3 9x12 and there's no problem...

Any ideas why???

check your tablet settings, choose the pen and check if the eraser is set to "eraser"

cheers

edit: if you havent already :P

[JonZ_]

I have this problem sometimes too, and often when it does that it also stops recognizing the pressure sensitivity. This usually happens for me when I'm running too many other applications at the same time. Closing some (especially iTunes) generally does the trick. :/

Oh well, I just uninstalled the device driver reboot and reinstalled. And now it work. Looks like the two tablets cannot coexist in the same environment.

Thanks anyway fokes :)
