Troubleshooting
For PC users, if you get a message that you cannot email the image, check that: To select a default email application on a Windows XP system: You have an email account set up on your computer. You have selected a default email application. Your email program is open. Some email programs (for example, Microsoft Outlook) must be open before using this feature. Try the following: You can launch your default email program from outside of SketchBook. From the Windows Start menu, choose Run. Type the mailto: command.  Click OK. Go to the Internet Properties control panel (Start > Settings > Control Panel > Internet Options). Click the Programs tab.  Pick the default email application from the E-mail dropdown list.

If a new empty message window does not appear, then there is a problem with the configuration of your email application and/or account. For Mac users, if you get a message that you cannot email the image, check that: You have an email account set up on your computer.  You have selected a default email application.  You can launch your default email program from outside SketchBook. 

If your email program creates the email message, but cannot send the message, ensure that your email service provider is operational. (Refer to the documentation of your email program for further information.)

Changing the Maximum Number of Undos

Changing the number of undos only takes effect once a file is created or another one is imported. We recommend you restart SketchBook. Tap the General tab. Enter the number of undos in Maximum undos. The maximum value is 75, but we recommend a lower value for optimal speed and performance.

Change the brush cursor

In your Preferences, set the type of display for the brush cursor.

Remove the brush outline

By default, a brush outline appears for the sharpen, blur, and smear brushes, eraser, and other low-opacity brushes such as the airbrush. This outline lets you see the size of the brush before you start drawing. In your Preferences, this can be turned off.

Improve performance
Some users may experience slower performance when Enable Rotate Canvas is enabled. This can be corrected by changing a setting in the Preferences General tap, which turn off Enable Rotate Canvas.

Installing the latest drivers

If your Wacom device seems to work when you first plug it in, but you experience erratic behavior (for example, problems with stylus pressure or with drifting or offset of the brush stroke), you need the latest tablet driver. Note -  If you switch from serial to USB devices, try uninstalling the tablet driver and reinstalling it. For the latest Wacom drivers, go to the Support area of http://www.wacom.com. Install a tablet driver only after you have plugged in the Wacom device, uninstalled the previous driver, and restarted. Note - F  or PC users, do not install Wacom drivers on a Tablet PC. Only install those drivers provided by your Tablet PC manufacturer.

Using default tip pressure feel

If you find that brush strokes change abruptly from too light to too dark as you vary the amount of pressure you apply to your stylus: 1. For PC users, display the Wacom Tablet Properties window. Access this window from Start > Settings > Control Panel > Wacom tablet. For Mac users, find the installed Wacom drivers and double-clicking the Wacom Tablet icon to access this window. 2. T  o customized settings for other applications, add Autodesk SketchBook Express to the list of applications with customized tool settings, which applies the changes only to it. 3. Move the Tip Pressure Feel slider to half-way between Soft and Hard. The shape of the pressure curve in the More Options display must be a diagonal line. It takes this shape by default when you move the Tip Pressure Feel slider to the middle.

stylus responsiveness.

For information about using SketchBook with Wacom tablets, see the section to follow, Adjusting

Adjusting stylus responsiveness

Styli (pens) for various systems each respond differently to the pressure you apply. Stylus responsiveness can be changed. Keep in mind, this setting affects brushstrokes for all pressure-sensitive brushes. If you dislike the feel of your current stylus, do the following: 1.  Select a pressure-sensitive brush, such as the pencil. Note -  You cannot adjust stylus responsiveness, unless the current brush is pressure-sensitive. 2. Select Edit > Stylus Responsiveness. The Stylus Responsiveness window appears. 3. M  ove the slider to the right to increase the responsiveness of the stylus. As you move toward the Less end of the scale, the feel of the stylus becomes softer. You do not have to press hard to get dark and thick strokes. As you move toward the More end of the scale, the feel of the stylus becomes harder. Press hard to get dark, thick strokes. 4. Test  your stylus on the canvas. Experiment with different types of brushes. Note - The Stylus Responsiveness window stays up while you test.  eep testing with different responsiveness values until the marks on the screen look and feel K right. With heavy pressure, the markers and other heavier brushes tend to make dark, thick strokes. With light pressure, the pencils tend to make light, but visible strokes. Note - You may need to adjust the pen responsiveness each time you use a different tablet or stylus.

Adjusting stylus responsiveness for one brush

The Stylus Responsiveness window applies to all brushes. To create a brush that responds differently to the pressure you apply to the stylus, create a do-it-yourself brush and change its size and opacity levels. Note -  Brushstrokes can change abruptly from too light to too dark as you vary the stylus pressure. Setting the tip pressure feel to its default value corrects the abrupt changes.

Reset Preferences
Reset your preferences to their default state. Select Edit > Preferences and tap Factory Settings, then tap a Reset button and OK .
