No pressure sensitivity in krita/qt

I'm trying to get my graphire 4 to work in krita (2.1, 2.2), everything seems to work fine except the pressure sensitivity...
I've installed xf86-input-wacom and linuxwacom from aur (also tried linuxwacom-dev).

Hey Bryan,
I'm experiencing the same problem with the pen sensitivity in PS - although other apps work fine with the Companion.
The zoom in/out on-screen shortcuts also freak out when touched.
I hope we're able to resolve these issues soon,
All the best,
Steph

  • Wacom tablet pressure sensitivity, dont work outside canvas

    Hi.
    I wonder, if i'm the only one, who are having problems to start a stroke outside the canvas and follow it on the canvas, without the pressure sensitivity is all on max.
    seems the same is happing, if you have marked an area and start at stroke outside that area. kinda like the brush only start recognize the pressure level when on the canvas or marking.
    does it make sense?
    running windows7 64bit intous3 A4.
    tested in on my my laptop too on the intous3 A5, same problem.

    Hi JJMack
    thx for your comment
    - i'm on photoshop cs5, any brush thats pressure sensitivity, did it with both docked and floating canvas.
    I think i've fixed the issue.
    Apprently its a problem with the newest version of the wacom driver. And somehow it only affects photoshop.
    i've downloaded the march 2010 driver from wacom. And installed that. seems to be fixed.

  • Photoshop CS6 Brush pressure sensitivity not working on the Microsoft Surface Pro.

    I have just purchased a Microsoft Surface Pro in anticipation of running Photoshop on it.  I installed Photoshop and tried to do some sketches.  I created a new file and started sketching.  I Immediately felt like something was wrong.  I checked my brush settings and saw the pressure sensitivity was not available.  Everytine I tried to turn it on it was marked with an exclamation point. 
    Does anybody know if Adobe is supporting the new pressure sensitive pen from microsoft, or if there is some sort of setting that I am missing?  I have tried sketchbook pro 2011, and that works amazingly well with the pen.  I hope someone can help me along here, because if this tablet can truely run photoshop, it would be a Game Changer.

    Just curious.... has any of you tried the shape dynamics in photoshop and turning on pen pressure?
    and in illustrator to modify the size to pressure and variation to maximum? (and of course select that brush preset that you just modified and draw with it using SHIFT+B for blob brush or B for regular brush)
    I am also interested in purchasing a Surface pro so please report if this helps.
    what I recently discovered in other forums is that Sketchbook Pro works flawlessly in desktop mode. Sketchbook Express in the APP mode doesn't support pressure yet.
    there is no official confirmation that the surface pro uses a wacom digitizer, however a few artist friends of mine have gone to the microsoft store... brought their own wacom pens (cintiq 15x pen - older models that works with general tabletpcs) and the pro recognized it. which means that it is a wacom digitizer. it wouldn't make sense if a wacom pen works with a different digitizer board like N-trig.
    also read in another forum about adobe using wintab and windows 8 wintab drivers are not there yet.
    anyway... I'd be glad to know if this works or not
    thanks!

  • How do I get pen pressure sensitivity in Photoshop CS5?

    Hi
    There is no sensitivity to pressure in my Photoshop CS5. I have installed the driver for my tablet (Intuos 4), but it still doesn't work. I have also clicked the icons for both pressure and opacity in the bar at the top, but they made no difference.
    I see a triangle with an exclamation point in the brushes menu by the control options. It says "Control by pen pressure requires the use of a pressure sensitive tablet," so I take this to mean that my tablet isn't supporting sensitivity.
    The tablet works just fine, but the sensitivity won't. What should I do?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I figured it out! Pen Pressure is working just fine now. Here are the steps I used to fix my problem. Thanks for your help, Noel!
    Windows 7/Vista Pro Driver
    -Disconnect the tablet from the computer
    -Open your start menu and then the Control Panel
    -Open programs and features
    -Uninstall any listing here for Tablet or Wacom Tablet and then restart the computer
    -After restarting, download and install only the latest driver (6.16) from wacom website
    -Once the installation is complete, and the system is stable, connect the tablet.

  • Wacom pen pressure sensitivity with PS elements 9

    I was just using the free trial with CS6 and was able to get  it to ignore the pen pressure sensitivity, so that it was the same size no matter how hard i pressed down. In elements I'm having a hard time in getting it to ignore the pressure sensitivity. I have the pen settings in the wacom software on the softer side so you dont have to press down hard to get the full size of the brush in photoshop, but when I go to test it out in PS it doesnt ignore the pressure.
    Im using it on windows 7.
    Any ideas?

    With the Brush Tool selected in pse 9 did you look at the settings for the graphics tablet?
    It's a small arrow as in the screenshot below to reveal the popup menu to set the pressure options.
    Since you posted in the full photoshop forum you might post over in the photoshop elements forum if the above doesn't work:

  • No pen pressure sensitivity in CS3

    I am running both Photoshop versions CS2 and CS3 on a Macbook Pro with Leopard 10.5.6 installed. I have downloaded the latest Wacom driver for use with my Intuos2 tablet. Running CS2 the pen's pressure sensitivity is working fine. Running CS3 however, gives only 100% pressure on every stroke, regardless of the applied pressure on the pen.
    Can this be solved?

    Be aware that when running CS2 under Leopard, there are usability issues that Adobe will not correct, as CS2 is long discontinued.

  • Can i adjust pressure sensitivity options for tools other then paint brush?

    Greetings all, i'm new to Photoshop elements and this forum, could someone help me with this problem please!!!!!!
    Is there a way to adjust the pressure sensitve options opacity, scatter, hue jitter e.t.c for tools other then the paint brush such as the dodge and burn tool?
    I'm wanting to use the dodge and burn tools with say a chalk brush but set the pressure sensitivity of my tablet to opacity, i can do this for the paint brush by using the tablet options drop down menu but the option doesn't seem to be avaiable for  tools such as the eraser, dodge and burn and smudge tools.
    I've tryed the brushes from the Pressure Sensitive set but there is no chalk brush in the Pressure Sensitive brush set that effects opacity and you can't adjust what settings are effected for each pressure sensitive brush when using tools other then the Paint Brush.
    Can anyone help me with this as i've tryed everything i can think of.

    I guess the easiest way would be to select the paint brush tool
    and using the brush of your choice, set those options you want
    and save the brush.
    Then when you select a tool such as the burn tool, select your brush.
    The one option that won't apply is the hue jitter (you can't use hue jitter or
    color dynamics in the full version of photoshop either for most other tools
    aside from the brush tool)

  • Stroke thumbnail view in brush presets panel in CS5 doesn't represent pressure sensitivity

    Greeting.
    Have just installed the CS5 package. Unlike it was in PS CS2, that I loved very much, I can't see whether the brushes are pressure sensitive or not in the brush presets panel of the new PS CS5 version. See the image please.
    Any option that I overlooked?
    It's a PS CS5 64 Bit version at XP64. NVidia drivers are fresh. Enough memory and processing power.
    Thank you for your responses.

    Thanks Noel. That thread was a big help. I used the last person's suggestion and so far it has corrected the problem:
    "We are running the latest driver  (6.1.6-7) and can confirm the fix you are mentioning - rolling back to  the earlier driver (6.1.5-3) fixes the issue.  However, along the way we  also found a more interesting solution - loading a set of preferences  from an older driver seems to also resolve the issue!
    We  used the Wacom file utility to clear our preferences on a machine  running the older driver (6.1.5-3), then saved out our default set of  preferences.
    On another station, after confirming an  account had the issue on the latest driver (6.1.6-7), we proceeded to  load the preferences we'd saved out of the older driver.  Presto!  The  problem vanished.  We can replicate this by bringing back the issue if  we go back to the default prefs in 6.1.6-7.
    Thought i'd share in case this is helpful for any of you.
    For  us, it's a much easier fix than having to redo wacom drivers (and  perhaps have other issues!) across multiple academic comptuer  laboratories mid-semester.

  • Stroke thumbnail view in brush presets panel in CS6 doesn't represent pressure sensitivity

    Everytime I open photoshop the stroke thumbnail shows up with lost settings.  I can hover my pen over brush presets and press ctrl+F1 and it will change back but when i open up photoshop cs6 it does not show what the brush setting are with the stroke thumnail and I have to do it again. I know how to correct it temporarily but I would like a permanent fix for this as it is quite annoying. I have tried to open it with just my pen from my tablet and it does not help. I am running windows 7. cintiq tablet.

    Hey JJMack!
    Thank you for your response! Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be my issue. I actually think I may be running into a bug with PS6. It seems like the stroke thumbnail preview might not be receiving the information that there is pressure sensitivity turn on my cintiq.
    Here is an example below..
    As you can see here the brush I have selected obviously has pressure sensitivity and PS6 is recognizing that. But for some reason that information is not being communicated to the stroke thumbnail preview.
    What's even weirder is when you go into that brush's presets the preview below shows the stroke thumbnail fine!
    I am wondering if maybe I have some weird preference turned on hidden away somewhere... or if this is an actual bug with the program.
    thanks guys!

  • How to make a pressure sensitive brush in CS3?

    Hi!
    Is there someone out there who knows how to make a brush similar to this? I've been trying to figure it out for several hours now, but nothing works!
    Daniel

    Sorry but you aren't going to get something that looks like that from a pressure sensitive brush in Illustrator.
    The colors and groupings of blocks are too random to be a repeating pattern (a simple one, anyway) and the order is too consistent to be something like a scatter brush. That said, you *can* do this with a brush but it won't be pressure sensitive and it will require a degree of setup.
    Start by building a row of blocks. Mine is a simple pattern with a few pieces removed and not terribly interesting looking but hopefully it'll give you the idea of what I mean:
    Group everything and then go up to Effect> 3D> Rotate
    Set your X, Y, And Perspective parameters to taste. Keep the Z axes (the blue one) at zero:
    Go to Object> Expand Appearance You'll notice that Illustrator has put a clipping mask around your squares (transparent rectangle) Delete it.
    Take everything you have and drag it over to the brush panel and make a new Art Brush:
    Now you can select that brush and paint with it though you'll get better results by stroking a path you've drawn with the pen tool:
    A couple of things to keep in mind:
    You'll need to consider your ultimate length when creating the brush. Longer or more wavy lines will require more squares. My squares look a little skewed because I didn't bother to make my pattern very long. A longer row will improve the look of this but hopefully my example is enough to give you the idea.
    For generating the square colors, you might want to try the random fills script available from James talmage's page and then use live color to tint everything for you.

  • Change pressure sensitivity of the stylus?

    So my stylus sucks. I can be holding my stylus off of the screen about 3 cm from the screen and it will write on the screen. This makes actually writing on the screen nearly impossible as my handwriting is completely illegible from this issue. I have replaced my stylus multiple times and that never fixed it. Then a few weeks ago I was messing with the settings and found that I was able to adjust the pressure that it took to make the pen write. And my problem was fixed. I noticed the other day that the stylus had reverted to the old ways and so I went in search of the settings for the pen, and I can no longer find the settings menu where I was able to change the pressure sensitivity. This menu had a picture of the pen and also gave you eraser options (even though the stylus doesn't have an eraser) and calibration options. I have searched high and low for this menu and I have taken it to the lenovo people (my school has a special relationship with lenovo so we have like a mini computer fix it place in the school where we take the computers when we have issues which unfortuantely happens a lot) and they have not been able to find the menu again either. Does anyone happen to know how to adjust this setting or know a driver I can download or some way I can make my pen usable again? 
    I have the Lenovo Helix. I am completely up to date on software and this problem has been occuring since when I had windows 8. Currently running 8.1.

    Good day and welcome to the community.
    Sorry you're having difficiulties.
    It would be helpful to know which X series tablet laptop you're using, along with which OS. That may well help fellow community members assist you.
    Thanks.

  • Does it have Pressure sensitivity on touch screen?

    As the title says,
    I would like to know if this tablet supports pressure sensitivity on screen. Or if it supports wacom stylus?
    I am an Industrial Designer and would like to use it for my digital sketching.
    Thanks,
    Utsav.

    Hi. Unfortunately not. At least it's not mentioned in white paper so I wouldn't expect it to work.
    Only those finger emulating but it isn't what you are looking for. But you can always give it a try in some showroom.

  • "pen pressure requires the use of a pressure sensitive tablet" in WINDOWS 8.1

    old problem but different system
    "control by pen pressure requires the use of a pressure sensitive tablet"
    I have a problem with it. There is problem when i using my Intuos pro or Cintiq 22 and my version of photoshop is CC.
    Can somebody help me with this? hope for some simple solution ; )

    If I recall correctly I solved this problem by things I found on the internet. However this is for Windows 7 and it has been a long time ago...
    Don't know if it is still appropriate but here goes:
    Windows Prof:
    Run “gpedit.msc” (click start, in the box closest to the button type “gpedit.msc” without quotes)
    Click User Configuration, then drop down Administrative Templates, then drop down Windows Components, then drop down Tablet PC. Finally click “Cursors”
    Now double-click Turn off pen feedback. Click the radio button “enable” and click ok.
    Windows Home:
    circle1
    Press the windows key
    type "pen and touch" and press enter
    In the window that appears, left-click the entry "Press and hold" and click "settings".
    Uncheck "Enable press and hold for right-clicking".
    Click OK on both windows to close them
    circle2
    Press the windows key
    type "computer management" and press enter
    In the window that opens, Double click "Services and Applications" in the centre column
    Double click "Services" in the centre column
    Scroll down and double click "Tablet PC Input Service"
    Find the "Startup type:" dropdown box and change it to "Disabled".
    Click OK, then close the Computer Management window
    Restart your PC
    After your PC loads up again, one of two things should happen: either your tablet works happily and circle-free, or it doesn't work at all. If it doesn't work at all, you now need to download and install the proper driver for it (to replace the Microsoft one that you just disabled). If you use a wacom, you can find the driver for your tablet here.

  • Illustrator CC issue with pressure sensitivity and blob brush.

    Hello I ran into this issue yesterday and can't seem to find a way to fix it.
    When using the blob brush, pressure sensitivity with my wacom intuos 5 works as expected. However if I switch to the regular brush tool and draw with that tool then switch back to the blob brush tool, pressure sensitivity stops working until I open the Blob brush's preferences and change any setting then click OK.
    My machine:
    Retina Macbook Pro
    Core i7 2.3 Ghz
    16GB RAM
    Nvidia 650M 1GB
    OSX 10.9.2
    Illustrator 17.1.0
    Already tried:
    - Deleting Illustrator's preferences
    - Reinstalling Wacom Drivers
    - Reinstalling Illustrator
    Yet the problem persists. Any ideas? Is this a bug?

    I was having the same problem. I wanted to use the blob tool and it was set to 2 point from a previous session. Every time I went to use it I got a 5 point round brush with no pressure sensitivity. It drove me crazy for awhile until I finally tried setting the blob brush to something different. After that it was fine, and I could switch back to 2 point and it began to work as expected. It seems like there's a small hiccup somewhere.

  • Painting with pressure sensitivity on my wacom?

    Using a Mac, CS6, and a Wacom intros 5Touch PTH-450, I am using the 6D Art Pen Brushes:
    1. no matter how hard I press on the Wacom, it always displays the paint stroke the same. How do you get pressure sensitivity working?
    2. I changed my variable width profile, though when painting with the Wacom it does not seem to apply the variable width. How do you enable this with a Wacom?
    Thanks!

    I would first try uninstalling and reinstalling the Wacom driver. That has helped me before when my tablet wasn't working properly.
