Ubuntu guide

  1. Run xsetwacom --list devices to get your device name.

  2. Check out the button layout by calling cat -v /usr/share/libwacom/intuos-s-pt.tablet (change the .tablet file for the tablet you own)

  3. Button numbering can be different from layout shown.

For my Intuos P&T, the Button Map is as follows:

 #3                   #9
 #1                   #8
*-----------------------*
|                       |
|                       |
|        TABLET         |
|                       |
|                       |

My config for ITKSNAP

xsetwacom set "Wacom Intuos PT S Pad pad" Button 3 key "PgDn" (scroll)

xsetwacom set "Wacom Intuos PT S Pad pad" Button 1 key "return" (complete ROI and fill)

xsetwacom set "Wacom Intuos PT S Pad pad" Button 9 key "PgUp" (scroll)

xsetwacom set "Wacom Intuos PT S Pad pad" Button 8 key "Esc" (complete ROI and fill)

 PgDn               PgUp
 Return             Esc

|        TABLET         |
|                       |
