disable right click erase option

Post by Joost »

Hi there,

Is there a way to disable the right click erase function?

I'm constantly erasing lines by accident.

Thanks in advance!

You could, in Edit>preferences>General
at Tablet, switch off wintab and set it to Ink


Or you could opt to disable rightclick in the Wacom Tablet Properties
by changing the front rockerswitch from "Right Click" to something else...

Thanks for your reaction Peter!

However: I don't see the options you are describing in the preferences.
I only see this

And I can't change it in the Wacom settings, since I need the right click for a lot of things in TVP :)

oops... taht is possible, our production is currently working in 11.0.8 i didn't realise that this function had changed in 1.5...
but those Tablet options don't do anything with regard to erasing?

Not, the Wintab options were not modified...

But which action is configured in your driver settings for the right click ?

Otherwise, you can also uncheck both options in the preferences :

Hi Xavier,

I didn't configure any setting for my right click button. It's just "right click".

I have unchecked both boxes, but the erase function is still there... Is this a bug then?
