SP2, Graphier eraser still doesn't work.

[typingcat]

I've just installed OneNote service pack, hoping they had added eraser
functionality, but they haven't.

The eraser of Graphire still doesn't work on OneNote, nor the pressure
level though I checked 'Use pen pressure sensitivity.

Is it impossible to use these features in OneNote?

If it is, is there any shortcut for 'Pen mode', 'Mouse mode' and
'Eraser mode'? Clicking the toolbar button is so tedious. Thanks.

I'm guessing you're using this on a non-Tablet PC. The inking experience
is substantially deprecated if you're just running on WinXP Pro/Home
without a Tablet. You may be at the mercy of Graphire's built-in
drivers/software, in fact.

Yes, I'm using Windows XP Professional. If it is impossible to use
sensitivity and pressure on this OS, can you just tell me a keyboard
shortcut to switch between Pen, Mouse and Eraser?

To correct the way you should've understood... you're probably not using a
tablet pc, running windows xp pro tablet pc edition... thus, using a wacom
tablet (I have one too..) doesn't work the same way with onenote, as a
tablet pc would. MS went very specific with their design making, mainly
because the wacom usb tablets are inferior to the tablet pc.

If you press ALT+T you'll get the tools menu, then you can choose Drawing &
Writing Tools where you should be able to select pen or eraser.
