Wacom with two screens
Further to my question on two screens, would my tablet effectively be split, a half for each screen, or would it recognise the pair as one, or perhaps be rendered obsolete? Just a thought! Maybe need two tablets?

Re: Wacom with two screens
You would only need one tablet for 2 screens - like the mouse cursor can go from one screen to the next so can a Graphic Tablet's cursor.

As far as drawing across the two screens I don't believe that would be possible as it would require Photoshop, Illustrator or whatever drawing program you have up to be straddled across two displays which would be arkward to say the least.

One tablet, one desktop. If your desktop is extended over two or more monitors the tablet driver wouldn't know. It just has to translate the actual resolution of the tablet to suit the resolution of your (extended) desktop.

You'll notice that you have lost some accuracy. You have to move your stylus half as far to get it to move the same on screen.

It doesn't affect mice in the same way because they are relative and not absolute.
