cursor doesnt disappear when i screenshot, doesnt move or show up when i attempt to draw

okay so when i hover my pen/cursor over the canvas, it doesnt show up. i tried restarding my computer, unplugging my tablet, and reopening krita but each time it doesn't work. gonna have to go back to old programs if this doesnt get fixed any time soon :  (

I bet that you're on Windows, not on Linux, that you've got one of the Intel display chips with broken drivers and that you didn't check the Krita documentation first:

https://docs.krita.org/KritaFAQ#Krita_starts_with_a_black_or_blank_canvas_and_nothing_changes_when_you_try_to_draw.2Fshows_a_black_or_blank_screen_on_my_Windows_system_with_an_Intel_GPU

Get the latest version of Krita (3.3.1, 3.3.2 will come next week, btw), and go to Settings/Configure Krita/Display and select "Direct3D 11 via ANGLE" in the for the renderer option.
