Created attachment 122563 [details] image 1 SUMMARY while previously working and still working in other programs and also in the krita scratchpad (image 2), brushes still produce blobby and unsteady lines on the canvas (see attached image 1). after uninstalling, reinstalling. uninstalling wintab and reinstalling, and restarting multiple times, bug still persists. after changing the pen driver from wintab to windows ink allows for one stroke to be smooth before going back to blobby. tablet tester shows that it has relatively consistent pressure recorded. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. I think this bug began after I switched on the temporarily save changes to presets. But still persists after turning it off and is not a consistent bug. OBSERVED RESULT images 1 and 2. EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: Windows 10 x64 macOS: N/a Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: ? KDE Frameworks Version: ? Qt Version: ? ADDITIONAL INFORMATION windows surface book, 16gb ram. using surface pen.

This appears to be a driver/hardware issue im afraid. Did you try all of the solutions in https://docs.krita.org/en/contributors_manual/user_support.html#quick-solutions ? Also if it is configuration related try to reset Krita configuration: https://docs.krita.org/en/KritaFAQ.html#resetting-krita-configuration Do you still get this in 4.2.6?
I'm not using a Wacom tablet so the quick solutions won't work. Though I did try to change the API in 4.2.5 and 4.2.6 and the problem still occurs. 1. Uninstalled 4.2.5 and went in to delete all previous Krita config files in %LOCALAPPDATA% (thanks for the link!) 2. Installed 4.2.6 3. Problem persists! Unfortunately, I don't think it is a hardware issue, after testing it in One Note, Sai, etc. and the brush specifically still working. (Interestingly enough, in Sai, there is a double click problem which might be related... but doesn't happen on Krita buttons.) ... However, I will revisit resetting my surface pen/touch drivers etc. because I'm not sure what else it could be at this point. Thank you for your reply!

@Alex have you restarted your PC after switching Krita to Windows Ink in Configure Krita -> Tablet Settings? While it might be unintuitive, I've heard on multiple occasions that simple switching Krita to the other API might not work immediately and need a restart. If it doesn't work, you can try reinstalling your tablet driver.
