Wacom Tablet Support
The Graphics Agent for Linux supports Wacom tablets in two configurations: bridged, where peripheral data is sent to the desktop for processing, and locally terminated, where peripheral data is processed locally at the Anyware client.
Locally Terminated Wacom Tablets
Locally-terminated tablets have greatly improved responsiveness, and tolerate higher-latency (including 25ms and higher) networks.
For the best experience and most complete device support, use the latest available Anyware agent, Anyware software client, and Anyware Zero Client firmware. To find out when support was added for individual Wacom device, refer to the release notes for your client.
Caution: Using Wacom Local Termination on Ubuntu Cloud Hosts
Cloud-based Ubuntu hosts may fail to properly handle locally terminated Wacom tablets. When this occurs, pressure sensitivity and other advanced features will not work properly. To correct this issue, follow this procedure.
The following Wacom tablet models have been tested and are supported with local termination mode:

Important: Touch is not supported
Touch features of Wacom devices are not supported with local termination.
Other Wacom tablets may work, but have not been tested and should not be used in production environments.
Info
To ensure smooth and consistent drawing on Wacom tablets in high latency networks, see the Configuration Guide.
Bridged Wacom Tablets
Bridged Wacom tablets are supported only in low-latency environments. Tablets in network environments with greater than 25ms latency will show reduced responsiveness and are not recommended.
The following Wacom tablet models have been tested and are supported with bridged mode:

Note: Support for Other Wacom Tablets
Other Wacom tablets have not been tested, but may work.
Caution: Do Not Calibrate Pen Displays from Wacom Center
We recommend that you NOT calibrate your pen display from Wacom Center on the host machine. Doing so might result in the cursor getting offset when the tablet is used during a PCoIP session.
