Hey keiichi77, 

I've just tried to reproduce this on our Intuos 3 using the August 2024 driver and I cannot reproduce it.

I've tried toggling the precision modes, enabling/disabling OpenCL in Affinity's Settings but nothing seems to make a difference. I can't quite guess as to why Designer seems fine for you but Photo isn't.

Do you have OpenCL enbaled in Settings > Performance? What graphics card and driver to you have installed for it?

There is no august 2024 driver for intuos 3, even the intuos 4 is out of support for more than two years at this time and no recent/relevant driver came out for these tablets. Maybe it is a typo. I will check it on the other pc and update the issue later this day, and I am also going to check this problem with an Intuos pro 2013 version.

Specs are Intel Core i7-10870H 2.20GHz cpu
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060

Hey keiichi77,

There are new drivers for Wacom, click here.

This is the German page where the drivers are listed.

Cheers

Yes, I have a Wacom intuos pro, and I know that there are drivers for new tablets. I said that Wacom no longer supports Intuos 3 and Intuos 4 tablets so these drivers won't recognize those tablets. I know, because I have an older Intuos 4 and I know that it doesn't recognize it, it pops up an EOS alert message.
