Affinity Designer - pressure pen


Recommended Posts

Ok, well I know nothing about the Asus EP121 other than a quick look at what I could find on the internet. From what I found it's a Win7, Win8 era tablet? Since you're asking about a problem with the pressure pen, I'm assuming that you're running some 64bit version of Windows?

  • So from that have you checked to see if Asus current drivers for it?
  • Is it set to use Windows Ink?
  • In Designer, go to Preferences>Tools and what setting are you using for Table Input Method, Low Precision, High Precision, or Windows Ink<--Causes more problems than it's worth. If it is set to Windows StInk, try one of the others.
  • In Designer, with the Brush tool selected, look at the Context Menu (across the top), and what is the Controller set to? It should be set to Pressure for that to work for a pen/tablet.

Anyone who uses any tablets in AD, will not work pressure for the pen, for vector brushes! Because the Controller is set to None by default. 

And it resets to None every time you open a new document or start a program! I think this is a bug.

Set the Controller to Brush Defaults or Pressure.

According to your other thread, APL-147 is logged as an improvement issue, not a bug. :(

Now I realize that I don't understand anything.

I understand that QA/Dev think there’s room for improvement but don’t regard it as a bug. You and I disagree with that view.
