We will be able to navigate through the different menus of the operating system by touch, and, of course, we will be able to make any design in your favorite programs such as Adobe Photoshop among many others. Instead of using the typical mouse to move through the different menus, we can move directly with this graphic tablet.
The official Huion application allows us to configure advanced parameters, such as the sensitivity of the pointer, its speed, the stroke, the pressure we have to do to perform certain functions, or if we want to configure the integrated buttons of the 13” screens and 16”, in addition, we can also configure the mini keyboard that comes as accessories in the 24” version.
Of course, logically we do not have any compatibility problems with the main graphic design programs, such as the Adobe suite, in addition, it also supports GIMP without problems. It is not necessary to configure anything in these programs to be able to use the graphic tablet, we must bear in mind that what the manufacturer wants is for the artists to focus on their work, and not on making complicated configurations.
