Stylus Details 14
The Stylus Details configuration shown in Figure 14.5 displays information about the
stylus currently installed in the system. The current stylus details section provides
basic information about the stylus, such as the tip radius and cone angle. Below this
section is the stylus ID entered by the user at the time of the stylus exchange. It is
important to give each stylus a unique ID since the system keeps a history file for
each stylus installed in the system based on the user entered ID. The Tip History
button opens the stylus history file in a text viewer.
