Changing Pen and Input Device Options

If you have a Tablet PC or ink device, you can use the Pen and Input Devices utility (New!) in the Control Panel to set the options you want. You can adjust how quickly you tap the screen when you double-tap or the distance the pointer can move between tapping when you double-tap, and then test your settings to make sure they are what you want. If you want more visual feedback when you perform a specific pointer action, you can displays the ones you want. A flick is a quick stroke of the pen to navigate and perform shortcuts using your tablet pen. On the Flicks tab, you can select options to use flicks to perform common commands and adjust the sensitivity slider to set the right recognition level for your flicks.
