Is there any way to change coordinate mode of any Huion graphic tablets on a windows computer?

0

Changing the coordinate mode from absolute positioning to relative is quite common in all graphic tablets. And even my huion h610 pro had this option on a mac. But I moved to windows and it doesn't seem to have this option in Windows.

A lot of users have been encountering this issue online and not a lot of answers - albeit one was told that the option is not available on windows by a Huion rep. I find it hard to believe since that option is available even on linux and is intrinsic to how a graphic tablet works. Hopefully, someone who managed to find an answer can help avoid sending the tablet back.

Also, personally I think the tablet is fine , its just a case of finding the right drivers to work with windows 7 since I found the relative/absolute mouse positioning to be working fine in my macbook but not on my windows 7.

was hoping the design people might have found a way around this as they use huion tablets daily and since no one on the internet, not even huion themselves, seem to have a clue. – None – 2015-03-19T18:39:29.813

but this is more a design related question than it is IT? IT people dont use graphic tablets. – None – 2015-03-19T18:41:50.157

I'm intrigued by the question, because I also own the Huion H610Pro. (and I didn't know about the relative/absolute behavior!) [Windows 8.1 x64] I looked around the Net, and found nothing too. But I found your question in DeviantArt too (Creativ9? :')

Try this:

  1. Close the tablet driver (its icon in the systemtray: rightclick> EXIT)
  2. Go to C:\Program Files\TabletDriver. That's Huion's driver location.
  3. Back up tabletconfig.ini
  4. Open tabletconfig.ini with your text editing program (Notepad, etc.)
  5. See line "SimlateMouse=1"
  6. Change 1 to 0 (zero).
  7. Save it! =')
  8. If you can't save it, Google how to unlock system files so you can edit and save it :')
  9. Unlock it... open, edit,.... then save it! =')

Some beautiful screenshots:

Config file, with "SimlateMouse" line

//

"Simulate Mouse" is checked, but greyed out

Now, check if the behavior has changed =')

"Simulate Mouse" is now unchecked!

ADD: make a shortcut link of that config file in your desktop or what's convenient for you. Tadaaa =')

It didnt work for me. See the problem is that if the .ini file has SimulateMouse = 0, and then when I open TabletDriver, its SimulateMouse setting gets changed to unchecked, ie 0, and the pen can not move the mouse on the screen at all. When I check it again, then the pen can move the cursor on the screen. – masterpiece – 2015-03-19T20:22:13.020

Also my GUI is different to yours and I downloaded the drivers from huion website today. i.imgur.com/WdcMuf6.png

Notice the option to check/uncheck SimulateMouse. When I uncheck it, pen cant move cursor on screen at all, and changing ini to 0 has that effect. Ini atumatically uncheck the SimulateMouse in GUI next time I restart TabletDriver if ini has setting set to 0. – masterpiece – 2015-03-19T20:22:17.407

:'/ Sorry. I couldn't check it on my side first. My Huion is in the office. Sorry I wasn't able to help too. Now I don't know if I should delete my answer or keep it here as a wrong answer. – Lorgen GR Magpantay – 2015-03-19T22:34:41.927

its not a wrong answer and I am grateful. But our softwares/drivers/GUI seem different so this answer may be useful to someone else. In fact, I dont understand why your gui is different to mine when we both have same model and downloaded from their website. – masterpiece – 2015-03-19T22:38:57.180

Thanks man, I appreciate that =') Well, I do hope it helps someone else. I'll try it also on mine. --Maybe the GUI is different depending on the system? I have WIndows 8.1 (pre-installed), so that may be why. Huion isn't very good at drivers and driver updates (based on what I've read in the Internet :'o) so the drivers are different depending on the Windows OS. – Lorgen GR Magpantay – 2015-03-20T08:29:45.730
