Stylus Usage

The Artist Ultra 14 comes standard with the X3 Pro Smart Chip Stylus and X3 Pro Slim Stylus. The X3 Pro Smart Chip Stylus comes with a silicone grip sleeve to reduce fatigue from long periods of creation. The X3 Pro Slim Stylus offers enhanced ergonomics for a comfortable grip, while its removable keys help minimize accidental presses.

Stylus Holding:

Hold the stylus as you use a regular pen or pencil. Then rotate the stylus to adjust the shortcut key position until your thumb or finger can comfortably press the key.

Note: During use, avoid accidental presses of the shortcut key to prevent unintended operations.

Stylus Storage:

When not in use, please store your stylus properly. To prevent pressure or weight from being applied to either the nib or eraser ends to extend the service life of the nib and pressure sensor, it is recommended to store the stylus in its included case when not in use.

Note: Do not place the stylus on the device when not in use. Otherwise, it may affect mouse operation and may prevent the computer from entering Sleep Mode.

Nib Replacement:

Replace the nib promptly if it becomes severely worn or develops sharp edges.

  1. Find the replacement nibs in the stylus case or product packaging. Please note that the nibs for the X3 Pro Smart Chip Stylus and X3 Pro Slim Stylus are not interchangeable, so ensure correct identification when replacing;
  2. Insert the current nib into the nib extractor inside the stylus case. Then tilt the stylus to remove the old nib;
  3. Insert the new nib into the stylus's socket. Push it vertically until it stops.

1.3.Touch Keys

Virtual tablet mode
image
Virtual tablet mode is a special feature that enables unified cross-screen operation across multiple displays.

Under conventional display settings (such as "Extended Mode"), the drawing display is mapped as a separate workspace, and application windows cannot be dragged directly from one screen to another. When Virtual tablet mode is activated, all connected displays are recognized as a single contiguous canvas. With just the stylus, you can freely drag windows, move the cursor, or perform actions across different screens-without the need to switch input sources or reposition the pointer.
image
This mode is particularly well-suited for scenarios that require multi-screen navigation or rapid content management, such as reviewing materials across displays or moving application windows from the primary monitor to an auxiliary one. Rather than being designed for fine-art drawing, it serves as an efficient multi-screen command and navigation tool, enabling smoother multitasking workflows.

Prerequisite:
Please ensure that your operating system's display settings are configured to "Extended Mode" (not "Duplicate Mode") in order to enable this feature correctly.

1.4.Floating Menu

The floating menu can display floating shortcut keys on the drawing display or computer monitor. You can set common operations on the floating menu. Then tap the button with your stylus, mouse or gesture to perform the set operation.

image

The floating menu supports horizontal and vertical layouts. Click the upper left corner area to switch between layouts. On the upper right corner, click the Show button. Then the floating menu is displayed on the desktop.

FAQ

1.How to fix a drawing display that is blank or flickering?

1) Please verify the power cable is securely connected. Due to computer power output limitations, when connected via a single USB-C to USB-C cable, the product may experience display flickering or blackouts. At this time, please use a second USB-C cable to connect the drawing display to the power adapter for power supply;

  1. Please check whether the video signal outputs normally. If it is connected to your computer's USB-C port, ensure the port supports DisplayPort signal output;
  2. Please refer to the Product Connection section to verify the correct connection method and cable;
  3. Please check whether the power indicator light is blue. If not, check the cables and restart the device;
  4. If the signal is unstable, check whether the cable connections are secure.

2.How to fix a device that cannot be recognized by my computer?

1) Check whether the USB port you are using is functioning properly. If not, try another USB port.

3.How to fix a drawing display not displaying 3840 × 2160 at 60 Hz?

  1. Verify whether your computer's graphics card and video interface support 3840 × 2160 at 60 Hz;
  2. Is another external monitor connected to the same graphics port? If yes, disconnect all other monitors first, then verify whether the drawing display's resolution can be increased.

4.How to prevent my OLED drawing display from burning in?

  1. If the same image is displayed continuously or repeatedly on any OLED drawing display, it may result in afterimage retention. Normally, the afterimage will disappear within a few minutes. This is a property of the OLED material, not a product failure;
  2. If you are not going to use the Artist Ultra 14 for a long time, it is recommended to use a screen saver or turn off the drawing display. You may also consider using the Dark Mode to change the menu bar in your operating system to a black background.

5.Will the OLED drawing display exhibit flickering?

1) The Artist Ultra 14's OLED display utilizes DC-like dimming. At higher brightness levels, the drawing display employs DC dimming to avoid flickering; at lower brightness levels, the drawing display employs high-frequency PWM dimming at 1,920 Hz.

6.How to use the touch feature in Photoshop?

1) In the Preferences > Performance settings, please make sure that the Use Graphics Processor checkbox is checked.

7.How to prevent accidental touches in drawing software?

  1. The product now supports Stylus Priority Mode, which automatically disables the touch feature when the stylus enters the work area to prevent accidental touches;
  2. You can customize the Touch Area via the product driver to limit the active touch area and prevent accidental touches;
  3. You can also wear the included anti-touch gloves to prevent accidental touches during drawing;
  4. Or simply press the touch switch on the top of the product to globally disable the touch feature during drawing.

8.How to prevent accidental touches in Krita?

1) Krita supports drawing with fingers on the touch screen. When using a touch screen-enabled drawing display, this feature may interfere with the stylus pressure input. Please disable it at this time.

To disable this feature, navigate to Settings -> Configure Krita -> General -> Tools to uncheck Finger Painting: Enable drawing input on touch screen.

In addition, when this option is unchecked, canvas panning remains available via single-finger gestures. To prevent drawing interference, it is recommended to switch to 3-finger gestures for canvas panning.

Navigate to Settings -> Configure Krita -> Canvas Shortcut Keys -> Pan Canvas View -> Gestures to switch to 3-Finger Panning.
