I can't get my Wacom pen to work. Is it because I'm in demo mode?

welcome Sierra, nice to see you again!
about being stuck with your pen, it's weird...
the trial version (demo mode) is supposed to work with the wacom pen.
have you the latest wacom driver installed on your system ?
and have you tried to check on/off the "subpixel" option in the preference panel ?
btw, what machine, and what OS ?

Thanks Fanany, you too.
You got it! It was the subpixel thingy that I had on that wouldn't let the pen work.
Here I am again having the benefit of your helpfulness. I have missed you.
After I found the pen works, I still can't get the sideswitches to be left mouse and middle mouse. I'll keep trying.

haven't you tried to update to the latest wacom driver (pro605-7_int.exe) ?
also I've read somewhere that the wacom pen settings should be the same for all the apps,
I don't experienced this sort of problem, because the only app I'm using with the wacom pen is TVPA .

I actually got it to work when I changed the subpixel command. Then I copied Paul's idea of reassigning the middle mouse button to a keystroke so I could get the rocker switch on the side of the pen to toggle the light table.
I am excited to get my dongle. I spent a whole day yesterday exploring the demo. What a great program!
