I recently bought myself a cheap-ole Graphics tablet, good drawing size (30cm), decent sensitivity (for 50 bucks, IMO). Alas I've hit a snag. I run two monitors, which means that my tablet is effectively split in half (half for one monitor, etc), so does anyone know of a method or program to keep it in the one monitors range?

To any Graphics tablet users and multi-monitor users out there?

Ick. While I don't have a solution, I can confirm that would suck!
Looking around for you now, though...
Well, I asked my brother. He's been a designer for many e-commerce companies for the past few years...
I've never used a tablet myself. Well, I have...just not on a machine of mine...
I can't imagine that wouldn't be an option in the software it came with, but I guess not.
That's not cool at all.

Shame. Oh well, I'll keep an eye out for a solution. Thanks for asking. :)

Nah its a cheap n' nasty one. I didn't see the point in shelling out 100+ bucks for a good brand tablet if I was just going to try it out and probably discard it a few weeks later.

Search windows for tablet. There should be some options there.

Tried them, nothing about constraining it to one screen.

do you have your picture spit into two parts on on each monitor?
what type of video card are you using.

According to Windows 7, I have an extended display, unless you mean the picture I'm trying to edit, then no. And I'm using an nVidia GTX 275 graphics card.
