HOW TO SET US XP-PEN ARTIST 12 PRO!! (Setting Up Express Keys Tutorial) Customizing Express Keys!!

[@Mr_Mike97190]

Thank you!!! Finally someone takes the time to explain how to set up the express keys!! Even the smallest detail and going so far and letting us know we need the software to know what commands to put in!!

[@artadventures5880]

Absolutely! It's my pleasure! It took me a few trials. I'm glad that it was helpful for you!

[@CVB073]

you gave me the perfect tutorial. I saved it in my playlist

[@s_mai8970]

Seriously, thank you. You're right, most tutorials skimp over this part. You've explained everything in detail and in a way that's easy to understand. Godsend.

[@insideurwalls]

bless this man for putting an AMAZING UNDERSTANDABLE tutorial

[@IriaChannel]

I've been using my XP Pen 22 without any express key/dial other than undo since I bought it 3 months ago. You've changed my life. Wherever, whenever... if you need me, just beckon and I'll gladly die defending you. -Art Adventures has acquired the summon spell IRIA!

[@artadventures5880]

Haha! Thanks! I'm glad that this helped. I probably would have been in the same boat if I didn't research for hours!

[@thauart]

Hi! I don't know if anu of you guys will see this comment but I will give it a try. I also gave a XP Pen 22 and it just doesn't save the configurations. I use the latest drivers from the website. It just does not work. I wish you could inform me where you downloaded this version of the Pen Tablet driver. Sorry if my writing, not a nativa speaker and pretty desperate :s

[@vloggingwithtony]

Thanks heaps for this tutorial. I had no idea how to set up the various keys. This helped 100%

[@georginaevans8719]

Very helpful. Complete newbe to art tablets and didn't have a clue how to set the shortcut keys. Probably saved me hours. Cheers!

[@artadventures5880]

I'm glad it helped! I know I could have used a video like this to help me save some extra time myself! Thanks for watching!

[@nyxstarbright2590]

TYSM! I had NO idea that the drawing programme itself has its own default key customization. Also thank you for such a clear and concise explanation of how to customize and use express keys this tutorial is so useful! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@tompanetta2762]

Wow, your like the key that opens the mystery door! Thanks very much! Happy New Year!

[@billbowman8747]

Good video. The very first thing you should do, is add the application that you are configuring the express keys for. For example, I am currently assigning the buttons for Affinity Designer so I need to add that to the Applications list, make sure I've highlighted it, THEN start assigning the shortcuts to the buttons.

[@g.l.3124]

Thank you!! I had no idea how to get the right express key commands for Photoshop.

[@Yoongisonlywife]

this was so helpful.thank you.i just bought my first pen display tablet and was confused on how to set it up

[@artadventures5880]

So so glad I could help!

[@BIGSHUNN]

THANK U!!! I need all the help I can get with setting my Tablets up!!! Please do more!!! I'm at the whole thing in the Drawing Tablet setup. Please with saving the setting on each program!!! I will be watching all the videos!!! I've got to watch the video again!!! :)

[@dezzierez]

Omg thank youuuu! Finally a helpful video rather than unboxing video! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@dorothysnowdon6635]

Great. Thank you 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@KAl-vf1dz]

Thank you SO MUCH! I have a very poor working memory and instructional stuff like setting up shortcut keys gives me so much dread and frustration...your video seriously helped me be less anxious and understand what I'm supposed to do. You're amazing, man! 💞

[@Zombiemuffin.]

I'm SO SO SO SO thankful for your video!!!! I'm happy!!!! Thank you!!! 😃

[@SiouxDickson]

Great tutorial! I was able to make almost everything I wanted to happen, happen. But I still can't figure out the taskbar. I would be enormously grateful if you could share how to get the taskbar to pop up via the express keys.

[@Lu-xx2vn]

Thank you for this video it honestly helped a lot I just got my tablet and was lost as to how to set up the commands!! Do you think you can do a video explaining how to use sketckbook? I am new to the digital art world so some of the functions in sketchbook are hard for me to understand

[@artadventures5880]

Glad it helped! I will do my best to create a video on how to use Sketchbook. Being a teacher, I am in the final weeks of school, so it may take some time. Subscribe and stay tuned in to see when I can make a video like that. Have fun and enjoy!

[@gimax4689]

Excellent video !! Thank you very much for taking out the time & effort to make this. Super helpful !

[@katleennellas1686]

Thank you so muchhhh 😭

[@nn1146]

Man, I'd like to know if you figured a way around setting 3 buttons shorcuts. I mean, everything's fine as long as you use the "crucial" keys (eg alt, shift, ctrl, etc) as the 3rd one, the input will show a + sign amongst the keys. But for when you want to go with one of the crucial keys plus 2 regular letters it won't really ultimately function in the program and the input changes to a comma between the last 2 input keys. I hope this is understandable enough to get the point across, I wrote this with my feet

[@enyaratna]

Thank you for a helpful video! May I ask you what song plays at the end?

[@lisasparling2431]

Thank you! Great explanation!

[@jimc2888]

Great job! Thanks for the help.

Tysm sirr 😓😓😓♥️

[@nadiya9725]

thank youuuu !!!! btw do you know how to make pen display color the same as the laptop ?

[@simondarif1386]

My man couldn't find a useful video so he made one 🤣

[@boephco]

great tutorial! Do you know how to change the settings specifically for different applications? Such as if I want to use the XP pen for one note and then switch to sketch up or whiteboard. These shortcuts may be different for each application. I'd like to be able to switch to the different applications without having to reset up the shortcuts.

[@kodi9479]

Hey there! I just wanted to ask if you knew how to fix the problem of the pen not being accurate?? Like the cursor won't go to where the pen is, but instead stay's where it is. I can still draw, but it's just very slow, and not at all where I want it to be. (PS-I just got it today, so this is very distressing!!) -Thank you!

[@artadventures5880]

Great question, Dakota. There are a few reasons that this could be happening. The first thing I would say to do is to recalibrate your pen. When setting it up, it has you clicking the 5 points on the display tablet. If your pen is slightly tilted in any way, it could throw off the calibration of the pen. Second would be how many programs your computer is running while using your XP-Pen tablet and drawing software. (this could cause a delay, but not necessarily throw off the calibration of the pen.) Last would be is neither of those two help solve the problem, it could be a graphics card issue. Not a strong enough computer could cause a delay in the reactions you want to get from your pen/cursor. (again, this wouldn't solve the calibration, but the delay in the cursor.) I hope this helps. Let me know the results!

[@kodi9479]

@@artadventures5880 Thank you so much! I've managed to fix the issue and I'm so relieved :)

[@mana-yo8sw]

@@kodi9479 how? Did you follow those instructions? I’ve already done it but mine is still not accurate. I draw in one place, but it shows in a different place, and there’s not even lag, it’s just like that when I want to chose apps or options.

[@kodi9479]

@@mana-yo8sw I got my stepdad to fix it a while ago, but have you tried callibrating it? There should be an option to when you set up the driver :)

[@Alex-yb6vc]

please update this, they changed it and now its hard to use, pls help

[@fionalabay9449]

Thank you so much for this!! It really helps a lot!!!!

[@artadventures5880]

Absolutely! Love that I could help!

[@mellis966]

Thanks for that! I need to save the hairs on my head for later.

[@artadventures5880]

Any time!

[@MonroesArtStudio]

My shortcut Keys aren't saving no matter what I do. I can customize a key to do a certain thing , but it just does whatever it's default was instead. Like, I changed K5 to be my undo and it's default is save...so it just saves

[@greysonhatcher759]

do you know if there a hotkey equivalent in photoshop for on the fly brush opacity control ? thanks!

[@shinbeiisenpai5337]

Hello sir! i just bought my xp pen artist 12 2nd gen! Should i first connect it to my pc and install the drivers? what i did was i connected it to my android with all the right cables and the screen of my xp pen says " no signal" please help :(

[@NohBran]

you need to plug it into your computer and turn your computer on

[@KikiTheOne]

@Art Adventures I’m very grateful for the video you gave but I have a big question. What if I don’t have any short cuts to set it to? I use Ibis Paint X and it’s mainly a mobile app. The “short cuts” don’t seem to show for computer keyboard I I don’t have anything to switch it to. Is there I way I can make that happen?

[@henrycamacho1995]

How do you detect the pencil onto the tablet because it detect it in the setting but as I go to draw nothing happens

[@Aceon_Wolfhart]

Can i know what's the art app you're using cause I'm new to the xp pen that I bought a week ago

[@drawingsfromthestars2297]

You managed to go through everything and yet skipped the one thing I needed to know how to do.
