tablet or spacepilot

I've got some wrist problems , so i'm looking for a wacom tablet or a
3d connexion - spacepilot , if anyone has either of these that they
don't use and are willing to sell, let me know, i could do with a
change from a regular mouse.

Thanks Mo.

 

Hi Mo,

spacepilot is only an addition for the left hand while using a regular
pointing device like a mouse in your right hand (or vice versa). They
advertise "50% less mouse clicks" but with clever key configs the
safeing is not that big. Anyway I also use a 3dx controler to toggle
and zoom my cad files and I like it very much. A graphic tablet might
do the job as a real mouse replacement, but be aware that speed and
precission while never be the same when it comes to selecting thin lines
or points in cad geometry.

Best hint for cureing you wrist:

work less ;-)


get well soon!

Hey John,
You might want to check out my blog on the subject of "tablet symbols" or
mouse gestures: http://wnc-swug.blogspot.com/2008/04/strokeit.html

as you can see from it I've found a replacement for the Bravo3 tablet
symbols that works pretty good.

Boy, that was a long time ago..I do remember tying them into some FIT
(flexible interface tool) programs I wrote. But I would be lost to try to
replicate that feat..

Have a good one,
Jeff
