Description iza 2025-03-01 04:00:01 UTC 
SUMMARY
I was trying to replicate the configuration that I use on blender where I use a drawing tablet(xp-pen deco pro medium) and my keyboard to emulate some mouse actions like middle mouse button with the help of kanata(https://github.com/jtroo/kanata)  I want to use middle mouse button to pan the canvas it works if I hold the key that emulates the middle mouse button and move the mouse, but if I hold the key and use the drawing tablet it doesn't work 


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. hold the key that emulates middle mouse button(with kanata)
2. move the pencil of the drawing tablet 

OBSERVED RESULT
Canvas doesn't pan

EXPECTED RESULT
Canvas should pan

Please first check with the tablet tester utility from the settings dialog whether the events actually arrive as expected: if not, it's Qt that doesn't get these events and then Krita cannot handle them either, of course.
