Description Peter Brand 2018-04-20 17:01:42 UTC

Pen-down on left side of canvas and drag across to right-side works perfectly and responds to pressure. Pen-down on right half of canvas jumps cursor to panel on right side of window (Color Selector or Layers).

I tried limiting the tablet settings to use only left-hand monitor (I have two), Krita gives notification that tablet settings disagree with windows, but runs. Still no difference.

Tried setting Krita's Tablet settings to Windows 8+, which makes the tablet work as mouse - positioning okay, but no response to pressure of course.

Tablet is an old Genius G-Pen 340, plugged into USB port directly on PC.  Tried the latest driver, but no difference. It was working correctly with PhotoShop trial version, but that has expired, so can't test further. Gimp doesn't respond to pressure, never has (could be some setting I don't know about).

Windows 10 64bit, WinTab32 5.3.2011.1014, Genius driver 5.2.2011.1107, Krita 4.0.1

My only work-around is to use Windows 8+ setting for Krita and use time instead of pressure, which is weird but workable.

I'm sorry, but this is a driver/system setup issue, and we cannot do anything about it.
