Hello,

I am working with a European Keyboard Layout and hence do not have the square bracket function available to increase/decrease brush size.

Has somebody out there experience with such parameter setting on tablets i.e. XP-Pen Driver?

  The functionality should still be there. It's a matter of figuring out which of your keys it got mapped to. I would start with the keys on the European keyboard that are in the same physical location on the keyboard as an English language layout.

  Which language keyboard layout are you using?

  Qwertz, but must be same with any other keyboard.

   

  I cannot figure out the settings on XP-Pen Driver. I must be stupid! Once something works, the minute after all is blocked!

  I use an Xp-Pen tablet and have set up a couple of buttons to respond to the square bracket.  You can try typing them using "ALT" and "5 " / "ALT" and "6" (I think these are the equivalent keystrokes on a German keyboard) and then set up a pair of Xp-Pen buttons to respond to those commands. If this doesn't work you can set up the Scrolling controls in On1 preferences to adjust brush size and use the scroll wheel on a mouse. Using a mouse and tablet together works well for me.

  Did you mean QWERTY? Qwertz is not a language. What language do you speak?

  Thank you Paul!

  I figured out the ALT 5/6 for the square bracket. Unfortunately, it seems that this function does not even work on the european tablet....

  I am trying to figure out how to assign the commands as the driver seems to accept absoutely no programmed setting from me...

  I have tried this on my UK keyboard and got the correct result:

  [ "Alt+0091"
  ] "Alt+0093"

  What model Xp-Pen do you have?

  Brian,

   

  There is a difference between English (QWERTY) and German (QWERTZ) layout and even between German and Swiss-German and Swiss-French

  Paul,

  Deco Pro Medium.

   

  I had to restart my system, as the commands interfered with the os x, grrrr!

  Now there is one setting left which I programmed one hour ago and which the driver does not reflect in any way!

  What a BS!

  Ah, thanks Sascha. I couldn't find that in any of my keyboard layouts so I got confused. :)
