Please tell us exactly which version of ChromeOS and what hardware you are using. (In reply to Halla Rempt from comment #1) > Please tell us exactly which version of ChromeOS and what hardware you are > using. For sure. I'm using an official Google Pixel Slate. Latest stable version: Version 87.0.4280.142 (Official Build) (64-bit) For input, this happens using my built in trackpad, external Logitech mouse or the external Wacom Intuos 4 drawing tablet. There is NO problem if I use my official Pixelbook Pen. But the goal is to have the cursor removed when using the Wacom drawing tablet of course. At least I'm hoping this is possible. For reference, another contributor just added pen pressure sensitivity using a Wacom tablet. This is the bug where I was reporting back to the person. It JUST got resolved. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=429940 We actually have two Slates in the household. My wife (the actual artist) is currently using the Krita version from the Play Store. I (the tech guy) am using an experimental version 5.0.0-prealpha (git 21f70cc). It was given to me to test the pressure sensitivity for the Wacom tablet as per that bug report. Point is, more than happy to do any testing required. I can install these experimental versions if needed for testing. Thanks for responding. Thanks for your comment! Automatically switching the status of this bug to REPORTED so that the KDE team knows that the bug is ready to get confirmed. In the future you may also do this yourself when providing needed information. In case this matters, here's what just got published. https://gizmodo.com/wacoms-cheapest-tablet-now-supports-chromebooks-for-asp-1846128080 And another article with some different info. https://chromeunboxed.com/one-by-wacom-graphics-tablet-chromebooks Wacom support with Krita for Android on a Chromebook really sounds it may become reasonably popular! May be worth investing more time in supporting Wacom properly on Chromebooks. Regardless, thanks to everyone making Krita awesome! Sharaf, is this still the case? (In reply to Halla Rempt from comment #6) > Sharaf, is this still the case? Hi, original reporter of this issue. I have Krita 5.0.0 beta 1 installed on my Google Pixel Slate. I just tried the Wacom drawing pad again and same thing. Cursor is still there. Hello Luc! Could you please try to capture the Tablet Log (https://docs.krita.org/en/contributors_manual/user_support.html#gathering-information) for 5.0.0 beta 1 and attach it? I'd like to check what sort of events are passed down to Qt by Android. Also, because you can't change cursor for some device types. I want to verify if tablet events' cursor is something which could be changed on ChromeOS. Could you please test this [1] app and see if the cursor changes as you hover over the items. The app is from https://github.com/chromeos/pointer-icon-sample [1]: https://drive.google.com/file/d/115ZjKRIipMtqRUQwCTxWU8l5JI3YjvR4/view?usp=sharing Created attachment 141513 [details]
Wacom_strokes log
Hi again, attached is the log requested. I had a look at that github set of files, but I'm unsure how to install it since it's not an apk. I am NOT a master of Linux, ChromeOS, etc. But I can definitely do a few things with some guidance. I do have Linux installed, and was able to install an apk... but this github repository doesn't have what I'm familiar with. Note that I'm pretty sure the cursor wasn't there in an older version of Krita before pen pressure was added. But don't quote me on that... it's been a long time.

Oh, I have attached the google drive link where I have built the project into an APK. Sharing the link again: https://drive.google.com/file/d/115ZjKRIipMtqRUQwCTxWU8l5JI3YjvR4/view?usp=sharing I'm an idiot. Thank you. Installed and can confirm all the icons switch as I move my cursor over each one. Clever little "app". lol Thanks for confirming! Git commit 2fbcbaaed90ebf5987db926f75edd42ea1175d34 by Sharaf Zaman.

I've fixed the bug. Could you please test this APK: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XUz8YrYQRUs6C-xzrs19OH39XjTIOzqD/view?usp=sharing? I've signed it with my key, you may need to uninstall the previous version of Krita. I can confirm it works! I did notice that when the cursor moves into the grey area in between the white page and the menus, there is no cursor, just the brush symbol. The problem is the cursor almost disappears since it's extremely subtle on the grey background. Not sure if it's possible, but I'd suggest the cursor should switch when off the white page instead. Because right now, you lose track of where it went. Git commit 2d3c9ebdf3cc556d1023cfc7bbde82bece659e90 by Sharaf Zaman. Committed on 23/09/2021 at 08:32. Pushed by szaman into branch 'krita/5.0'.

Created attachment 135025 [details] Before and after required fix When using a mouse over the canvas area, the mouse cursor remains displayed while drawing besides the actual brush symbol used. The cursor is very distracting when drawing. Although most won't use a mouse to draw, a Wacom drawing pad behaves as a mouse even when using the physical pen. Recently, Wacom was just accommodated for pen pressure (hooray!), so this is an important piece of the puzzle to fully support Wacom tablets on ChromeOS. Obviously this should only be fixed when over the canvas area since we still need a mouse cursor for menus and such. Merci.
