so does that allow you to toggle back and forth from pen to cursor. I have a specific situation where I use the cursor a lot but want to be able to add in the pen instead of drawing with the mouse cursor. the pen needs to take the place of the mouse cursor for the drawing part.
@@CdotForbes13 not on the same slide. So I press control +P and write then if i click the right arrow, it will move to the next slide (or animation) and toggle off from pen. (not sure if that helps)
Thank you so much for this information. I was having a hard time engaging my students in my classes just using presentations. You are a lifesaver. Cheers!!
I taught one-to-one on Zoom, daily, for almost a year, before biting the bullet and getting the Wacom tablet.I should have just done it a year ago. Thing is, I have an Apple Pencil (which is unbeatable in my opinion), but I prefer to use my laptop. Linking my iPad creates a third person in the meeting and we’re cut off at 40 minutes with free Zoom. Anyway, this works just great. No more writing maths with the finger pad on my laptop. It’s the perfect solution and at under £100, a must-have. I use it on the whiteboard, over PDF’s and PowerPoint. Love it!
The Apple Pencil is wonderful, but I'm glad you found a solution for when you can't use it! It makes all the difference, and a good price makes it even better. Enjoy!
this was a wonderful review!!! i was wondering if the tablet could be used as a mouse... and you answered my question with bonus tips! thank you thank you!!!
Good explanation! Question - Why someone use this Wacom tablet when they already have the Microsoft surface touch screen laptop as shown in the video? 😊
With a Surface rt other Touch Screen device, you can just use a pen! Not everyone has access to a touchscreen device so we wanted to show how easy it can be
@@jquin3 It's a cheaper alternative. I personally think it's really money-wasting to buy an iPad or Android tablet just for taking notes. Especially when you have a notebook that's still working good
thank you very much for the great tutorial. I wonder what tool you use to present the presentation as a background next to your own image. I' d be very interested in knowing that.
@@justinharris7572 Hi Justin. We use a tool like Screencast-o-matic, Loom, or Camtasia to record our screen while we present. In editing, we place both recordings together.
Hello! I am not super familiar with LibreOffice Impress, but any tool that has annotation tools built-in will work with the Wacom. It looks like LibreOffice Impress will work with it then.
can someone help me, my problem is when I used it with HDMI to present it to class, those toolbars for Inkhoe does'nt appear instead toolbars for presentation appears.
Hi Daniel, you can send an email to support@inknoe.com and they can help! You may be having issues with the mode you are presenting your presentation that causes the toolbar to disabled. Our support team can help.
Hello! I don't believe you can. To use the tablet on any application, the application must have annotation tools built-in, like the Draw tab in PowerPoint. Word doesn't have the same tools yet, so you can try downloading software that allows you to annotate over any window, page, or application.
Thanks for your video! Can you recommend an alternative app for class point that can be used with mac? I'd like to have my pen options at the bottom of my screen for my powerpoint slides.
Hi Kathy! I am not familiar with any of the Mac apps that can be used that are similar in that way to ClassPoint. We will keep everyone updated when ClassPoint expands to other operating systems!
Great tutorial! How do you record yourself while simultaneously having your computer screen contents appear behind you on the green screen? Seem like pure magic : ) .
Would it be possible for you to show a tutorial of how to do this? I am a teacher and I record videos for my students for online learning - it will be so so helpful for me to include myself at the bottom on the screen! But I have no idea where to start :(
Hi, thank you for the video! How do you show the red light under your mouse movements? I can't find a way to customize it and my students cant see where am I going to write next.
Hello! Thanks for watching. The red light is under the mouse because ClassPoint's drawing features are being used when annotating on the slides instead of PowerPoints!
Once we annotate using this pen during the presentation, how to remove it? I tried control-Z but it's not working. Pressing an escape button and discarding the changes is not an effective option. Please suggest. Thank you.
Hi Sagar, we suggest taking a look at your pen settings in the Wacom Driver. You can adjust the buttons on your pen to undo or to be an eraser. This should help you remove annotations more efficiently.
Would it be possible for you to show a tutorial of how to do this? I am a teacher and I record videos for my students for online learning - it will be so so helpful for me to include myself at the bottom on the screen for them to see me as I teach! But I have no idea where to start :(
Hi Michaela, you will need to record your screen with a screen recorder, and record yourself with a camera (camera in front of you, and green screen behind you). Now you have two videos, you just add these two videos in a video editor as two layers (make sure you are on the top layer). Camtasia is a good video editor for beginners.
can you still use a mouse simultaneously, like the cursor is the pen when and mouse at the same time? I have a specific situation I would like to use this for but still need to use the mouse at the same time. your insight is appreciated
We haven't had any of those issues yet. I do not always use the Wacom with the Surface though, because of the already existing features of the Surface.
Above your PowerPoint screen it says "Wacom One and PowerPoint - PowerPoint"... like, mine just says PowerPoint and I also have the One plugged in, although it's hardly useful to my PowerPoint... so forgive me if this is really obvious but, how do I get to THAT point where the two actually interact?
Hi Deborah, the "Wacom One and PowerPoint - PowerPoint" is the name of my PowerPoint file. The One by Wacom can be used to help annotate over your PowerPoint if you do not have a touch-enabled device.
Hi Youssef, here is Wacom's page on their compatible devices: www.wacom.com/en-us/comp. Check this out to see if your version of Wacom tablet and your device can work together
Hi Maureen, I am not super familiar with Classin App, but any tool that has annotation tools built-in will work with the Wacom. It looks like it should work tho!
How are you using the tablet without physically connecting it the laptop via the cable? I have been looking for ways to make it wireless as i hate the wires cluttering my workspace
Hi Jeswin! The One by Wacom is not wireless, you will see it is connected to the surface pro via USB. You can look for wireless devices to use if you do not like the wires!
Mam, I used wacom tab in power point after slidshow recording the vedio could be saved later I played that vedio I cannot see what I can write that slide, only able to hear sound and slides movement What is the reason ?
Hi there! When recording with the PowerPoint option, the annotations won't appear when you record in slide show mode. You can record using Loom, Teams, or Zoom instead and it will work out. Or, you can record through PowerPoint and annotate while you are still in Edit Mode of PowerPoint
I was trying to find the 'draw' tab in the powerpoint ribbon. After searching through microsoft help files, it seem the draw feature is only available for those who purchase a 365 subscription! That's crazy; I purchased a full version of Office 2016 and now I need to buy a monthly subscription on top of that??
Hi Barry, I am sorry to hear you will have to pay if you want access to the Draw tab in PowerPoint. Instead of paying for a monthly subscription, try out the free version on ClassPoint, you can have access to drawing capabilities when you present!
@@ClassPoint Yes my post was a bit premature. Seems there are other options out there. I've got Classpoint working now and it seems to satisfy almost all of my needs. It's just a shame that all my presentations are on Apple's Keynote platform. I will just have to export them to PPT as needed.
No need to calibrate for the One by Wacom. If you have a different pen and tablet, follow the instructions here:101.wacom.com/UserHelp/en/Calibrate.htm
Why she doesn't use the pencil function of the surface? This graphic tablet doesn't make sense in this case. To write directly on the screen is the way better solution and feels way more natural.
Great point, but normally we do use a pen when using the Surface Pro, but not all teachers are as lucky to have a tool like this so we wanted to show easy it can be!
Thanks for the video, any advice how the wacom works when you are presenting to a class. As i found that when you bring up the presentation in the screen where you can see the other Team options like participants and chat .. it does not work ?
Hi there, to use the tablet on any application, the application must have annotation tools built-in. For example, PowerPoint supports annotations but Teams does not. So you will not be able to annotate on the Teams interface. If the app doesn't have those tools, you can try downloading software that allows you to annotate over any window, page, or application.
@@ClassPoint Hi thanks for yur reply. So when yu teach online using team interface.. do yu open ppt seperately so can annitate and have the team interface on seperate window so can monitor chat etc
@@tahirnaeem4203 Yes, you can share you can open PowerPoint, share your screen and annotate on one window, and in another, monitor the chat. It helps if you have a second monitor so that you can see both at the same time.
@@ClassPoint Thank you. So, if I am using Powerpoint and I have my slide show on Monitor 2 and Monitor 1 is the "presenter view" and I have mapped the tablet to monitor 2, will I still be able to use the pen to click the slide advance etc on Monitor 1 or, if not, will my mouse still work for that?
@@barryrodgers1574 Your mouse should still work for monitor 1. Since the tablet is mapped for monitor 2 it will only be able to control what is on monitor 2
Hi there! It looks like you can use two fingers to rotate the ruler. You can find out more info here:support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/draw-straight-lines-or-align-things-with-the-ruler-in-powerpoint-6222c9b4-2fdf-48f7-a3fd-1687fbe2bf84
@@ClassPoint it doesn't recognize the stylos. When I move with the mouse it works, when I switch to stylos, it doesn't. I have double-checked that my device is connected (tried to work in Photoshop). If you find out, please let me know.
Do you have a video with tips for settings or lights you use with the green screen? I say that because you don’t have any bleeds and you move freely without being dark or a weird color and any tips on that would be appreciated.

why are you using a wacom table on a Windows Surface? is your surface touchscreen failing? I am looking for a wacom because I have been experiencing problems with my Windows Surface (I don't recommend windows surface btw, they are expensive and the quality is poor). Better buy a wacom.
Luckily we have a device with touch screen capabilities - some teachers do not have that luxury, but we still wanted to highlight how beneficial it could be for them!
