How easy is it to do CTL+ALT+Z while in tablet mode?

@crazychris0003 If you use gMote, you can assign CTRL+ALT+Z to a gesture. I can do most commands this way. The tricky part is remembering all the gestures, but it's nice that you can assign similar commands from different programs that use different command keys to the same gestures. For example, to undo backwards through history in Manga Studio is CTRL+Z and in Photoshop it's CTRL+ALT+Z, but with gMote both commands are a gesture I made that looks like a backward arrow.

I'm using the HP tm2 Tablet PC, which has both a wacom screen and touch sensitivity. MangaStudio runs well on it with the ATI Radeon HD option. For the best performance you'll want to install the free programs gMote (for gesture commands,) and Modlock (onscreen modifier keys). The pressure curve with the default HP pen is poor so I highly recommend getting an alternative dual-switch pen like the Axiotron (which looks and feels a lot like an Intuos pen,) or a dual-switch ArtZ II pen.

I stumbled upon this looking for a tablet pc/drawing video. I have used Manga Studio in the past. What tablet pc are you using? It wouldn't be a netbook convertible? I hope I hope I hope
