Does anyone use mouse alternatives, like a Wacom pen tablet, with PC Stitch? I have a bit of arthritis in my wrist, apparently, and between stitching and then using a traditional computer mouse, it gives me quite a bit of pain. I was thinking of switching over to a pen tablet or maybe a touchpad type device but didn't want to spend the money if they don't function well with the PC stitch program. In the meantime, I have switched my mouse over to be used with my non-dominant hand but it is already causing discomfort in that hand and is clearly not going to be a long-term solution. Thoughts and suggestions?
You would have to ask Mark (use the Contact Us) to find out if it is supported under other pointing devices. If they run on Windows, there is a good chance they would work. As far as I know, PCStitch is not designed to work with touch devices.
As for the pain -- I understand. I don't have it in my wrists but in my fingers. It's not the mouse that gives me problems. The keyboard shortcuts make my hands hurt -- like alt-right-click for color selection. If I keep my hands in the normal position, using the alt button gets to be a stretch. I have short fingers!
