Description thomasazalea 2017-04-12 23:31:28 UTC 
My cursor is frozen within the canvas.  This is the same result for all of my files and new files. I cannot paint at all.  I cannot paint with the mouse or the pen. I am using Windows 10.  I have tried the following:
1. restarting computer
2. ensuring windows is fully up to date and then restarting
3. uninstalling, restarting, and reinstalling Krita

Thank you!

Try to disable opengl: I suspect you've got one of systems with an intel display chip and a broken driver. Please tell us the exact brand and model of your computer and version of the display chip and display driver if so...

It _is_ a bug in the driver, but for some of the reason, none of us developers have received a windows update with a broken driver :-(

When I paint on the canvas, it doesn't show, only when I minimize the screen and come back, it shows. 
I can't see my brush move, when I move my mouse, only when I go to the toolbar it appears again.

Please tell me the exact version number of your display driver (see http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/000005589.html). If the first number is lower than 15, it is outdated, and you should update.
