I have a question that refers to the s2m.wacom-object: I want to use the Data of the Wacom Tablet "intuos 3 PTZ-431W" in my MaxPatch with s2m.wacom. But I don't want the Wacom Tablet to move my cursor. Do you have an idea?

I heard, there is a function named "local" or something like that but I couldn't find it.

Hi all,
I have a question that  refers to the s2m.wacom-object: I want to use the Data of the Wacom Tablet "intuos 3 PTZ-431W" in my MaxPatc

s2m-wacom

yes, [s2m.wacom] has a 'nopointer' message that decouples the pen movement from the system cursor. I used the Intuos 3 with the [s2m.wacom] for a long time on my old machine and it worked very reliably. Be aware, though, that the current wacom driver doesn't support the Intuos 3 anymore. You might be lucky and find an old version that still supports it and works on your machine. (version 6.3.15-3 worked for me on an intel-based mac).

Around the introduction of 'Catalina' security issues started to become a major problem. [s2m.wacom] couldn't communicate with the wacom driver anymore because automation processes, like sending Apple events, are blocked now by default. This renders messages like 'nopointer' non-functional. AFAIK this issue is still not resolved (at the moment I'm working on an updated version of [s2m.wacom] for arm64 (M1) and face the exact problem of blocked Apple events).

But there are still more troubles:

thanks for the very interesting and helpful information.

I will now use the nopointer message that works great for me!

 and it's loading in rosetta in max 8 ... but i didn't find any maxhelp file ... anyone have any idea for a maxhelp file? (this s2m.wacom does not have the same number of outlets than the wacom.mxo object that is not loading "due to incorrect architecture") ...EDIT: Damn, i just realised that there is not device-ID outlet on this s2m.wacom... and i use two pen at the same time (picture in my presentation alexbart.org) ...Nobody knows if there is a way to use the older wacom.mxo on Monterey on macbookpro-M1 ? 🙏
