I just got an XP-PEN Deco1v2, which I am trying to use in Inkscape.
In the dialog that comes up when Inkscape > Input Devices... is selected, there is a pull-down labeled "Mode." The choices are Disabled (I understand that one ^_^), Screen, and Window.
I'm sure the meaning of the second two are clear to most people, but I am baffled. I could find nothing in the Inkscape docs about it and nothing in the forums. What exactly is meant by "Screen" and "Window"?
Well, yes, but that video is about a Wacom tablet.
I get that there is Mouse (Relative) and Pen (Absolute) (my Deco 1v2 uses both of those term sets), but I don't see how that translates to the "Screen" and "Window" in Inkscape.
Can someone translate into one of the sets of terms I understand?

Thank you!
It's a variation on this idea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axu9ELhV5XM
which applies to most tablets on most systems.
