Various Wacom Tablets (and other makes) have different methods of achieving the same results so consulting the maker's manual is essential to get the required result.

Some examples:

Wacom Intuos 3/4 users can configure the Express keys to be Control, Alt and Shift.

Wacom Intuos 3 users can configure the Slider Strip to be the Scroll/Zoom/Mouse wheel.

Wacom Intuos 4 users can configure the “wheel” to be the Scroll/Zoom/Mouse wheel.

Some Bamboo Tablets have Gesture or Touch Controls but this method needs verification by a user??
