Re: [Linuxwacom-discuss] different mapping setting for touch and pen

[Qiang F. <god...@gm...>]

Thank you peter. I did it with the following commands, now I can sign my 
name from the tablet with the same size on the screen.
1 get device name with
xsetwacom --list devices
2 set mode to relative
xsetwacom set "device name" Mode "Relative"
3 find the width height ratio and fix the zoom factor with
xsetwacom set "Wacom Intuos PT S Pen stylus" Area 0 0 45600 28500
It works like the galaxy note!
Thank you!
Eric
