Description Alexander Sanderson 2024-09-30 18:22:33 UTC 
SUMMARY
Using a Wacom Tablet (in my case I'm using the One by Wacom), if I were to hover over an item on my Task manager and then move the cursor back to a window or the main workspace, the Task Manager's window preview will still remain as if the tablet's cursor was still hovering over it.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect a drawing tablet
2. Hover over an item in the Task Manager using the tablet's input
3. Hover away from the panel

OBSERVED RESULT
The window preview from the Task Manager remains as if I hadn't moved the drawing tablet's cursor

EXPECTED RESULT
The window preview from the Task Manager disappears like how it behaves with a mouse

Can reproduce.
Comment 2 HPetrus 2024-12-03 23:25:51 UTC 
Can confirm that this is still an issue.  It definitely takes attention away from the art work at hand, sort of like having to constantly swat a fly out of the way.  Only with this, you have to tap on the app preview pop-up to make it go away.  This may still be a problem with other pop-ups, too; not just icons only task manager.

Also noticed this bug on Garuda with Plasma 6.2.5 using Huion H1060P

This is a possibly a  duplicate of a more generic issue "[Graphics Tablet]: When using a stylus, some tooltips on the panel do not get dismissed properly" (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=497585)
