# Enable tilt for brushes

## Overview

Almost all drawing tablets send pen tilt data to the computer. Wacom consumer tablets are a notable exception.

Assuming your tablet is sending tilt data, you may want tilt to control what you draw. This document explains how to configure your application so it can take advantage of tilt.

## Drivers

First, make sure your tablet drivers are installed. Typically, they are necessary to take advantage of tilt.

## Tilt in Clip studio paint

Here is an example of how to configure tilt in Clip Studio Paint.

* A simple example is the **Calligraphy** brush in CSP.
* Open **Brush Settings**, then go to **Brush Size**.
* Click the **up arrow** at the end of **Brush Size**.
* A dialog called **Brush Size Dynamics** will open.
* There are four checkboxes that control what affects the brush size.
* Disable everything, then enable **Tilt**.
* Note: it is not required to disable everything, but it makes it easier to see how tilt affects size when only tilt is enabled.
* Once the brush is configured, you should see tilt affecting the brush size.
* After that, you can adjust other brush settings and have tilt affect other brush properties.
