Solved Handwriting Input Panel keeps popping up

[perkinw]

Can anyone tell me how to disable the handwriting tool (image attached) that pops up whenever I place a cursor in text?

For example, if I open Notepad, the tool appears just below the blinking cursor and doesn't go away until I start typing.

I understand that this tool allows the user to enter text using handwriting, which is something I do not want or need.

FYI this tool began popping up after I installed an Intuos tablet. Regardless of whether the tablet is turned on or off, the tool always follows my cursor around.

Is there an option to disable the tool so that it never pops up? If so, I can't find it.

hi
I would start by looking in the settings for intous tablet.
if can't find anything their. then uninstall the tablet and see if it goes away. if it does then it might be something you cant get rid of when you have the tablet installed.
