 # Calibration 
-When using a graphic tablet, it is necessary to map the visual space and the hand space (unless using a device doing that for you (e.g., [Wacom cintiq](https://www.wacom.com/fr-fr/products/pen-displays/wacom-cintiq)). We want that: 
+For most experiments, the calibration is not necessary: the startup message could simply be ignored.

+However, it is sometimes necessary to map the visual space and the hand space (unless using a device doing that for you, e.g., [Wacom cintiq](https://www.wacom.com/fr-fr/products/pen-displays/wacom-cintiq)). We want that: 
 - center of tablet = center of display 
 - 1 mm on tablet = 1 mm on display 
 
 This is where the calibration is necessary: 
-- to know the real world size of the display, set `screenDiagonal` on the command line
-- to know the real world size of the tablet, set `tabletSize` on the command line as e.g., `311x216=62200x43200` 
-	- `311x216` is the size of the active zone on the tablet **in millimeter**
-	- `62200x43200` is the size of the active zone on the tablet **in pixel**, usually given in the device driver. If you cannot find the exact values, you can safely duplicate the values in mm.

 The tablet size will be represented in green on the display when the program starts.
