Description dragon_alycia 2016-08-20 20:11:32 UTC
Hello,

I have recently bought a XP Pen tablet series Star 03.
With the driver that came with it, everything worked fine, except the driver crashed several times. So I downloaded the most recent driver from the website and installed it. I configured everything the same, But with the new driver, I don't see my cursor moving over the canvas anymore, unless I draw. Which is quite annoying not to see where my pen is going to hit. Everything outside the canvas area works perfectly fine. Other programs such as Paint Tool SAI and Photoshop don't display any problems. I didn't have any problems with my previous tablet, a Wacom Bamboo, too. Neither do I have any problems with normal mouse usage.
All tickets I could find relating to this topic were signed as fixed, but I have this problem right now on my Windows 7 (64-Bit) system so I thought I'd report it. I have the normal Krita Gemini release from Steam, which should be 3.0 without the Lifetime Updates. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Krita Gemini
2. Move tablet pen to canvas

Actual Results:  
Cursor only moves when I draw.

Expected Results:  
Cursor freely moves over the canvas before I draw.

Running on Windows 7 Ultimate Edition SP1, 64-Bit. 
Initial driver for XP Pen Star 03 worked as expected, new driver caused the error to appear. (Driver had been reinstalled correctly, no problems with other programs such as SAI or Photoshop)

Hi,

Can you check whether 3.0.1.1 works? If you've got Krita on steam, you can find that in the beta channel, or you can download it from https://www.krita.org
