Lusco Fusco Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Since the last update 1.8.4 I am not able to work with my Wacon Intuos pen. Multiple errors, it does not restore the default size of the image when double-clicking, it does not displace the image when dragging it, some brushes do not work ... I hope you find the problem, otherwise I will reinstall the previous version. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArryC Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 HI! I have a similar issue with my Huion pen in that it wont draw with the brush tool (Still works fine in photoshop and seems to work in affinity to select etc, it just wont draw.) It eventually started to work yesterday after opening and closing affinity photo several times, but today I'm back to the same issue! My huion drivers are up to date, I haven't changed anything with Windows Ink (I have no idea even how to as I've never used it!), and like I say it works on my other software and was fine pre update! I saw that someone else had the same problem on the forum (can't find the post now!) but it didn't seem to have been resolved! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for custom mapping regions, I never had to configure them previously. And I don't see why I should alter the tablet settings when it works perfectly in the rest of my editing programs, as well as in the previous version of Affinity ... Rather it seems obvious that developers should locate the problem and fix it, doesn't seem to be so complicated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly why I'm asking you these questions. I'm just trying to work out what the problem is, so we can fix it or suggest a solution. We no longer support "Mouse Mode" by default, so you will need to supply the --legacy-wintab command line option to prevent your tablet from supplying high precision data to the application. By doing this, your pen will act like a mouse, but with the addition of pressure data.

Lusco Fusco Posted August 6, 2020 Author Share Posted August 6, 2020 6 hours ago, Mark Ingram said: so you will need to supply the --legacy-wintab command line option Meh. It worked the first time. After a while working, it starts to hang, I try to close it and it crashed. I open it again and it shows the same problems as before, in addition to the impossibility of working with the move tool, and several brushes ... Right now I can't waste more time. Uninstalling this version, installing 1.8.3 and I'll have a look around the forum waiting for someone to solve this problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilstefx Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Hi all. I am having basically the same issue. I also can't adjust the brush size and hardness using my Wacom pen. Very frustrating. I tried the --legacy-wintab etc. solution, didn't help at all unfortunately. 1.8.3 worked like a charm! Best regards Emil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
