GIMP :: 2.8 Does Not Recognize Tablet

Jul 25, 2012

I have been using bamboo fun with gimp(2.6 or older) for ages without any problems with either one. Today I finally managed to make it into the store and upgrade my tablet to bamboo pen and touch. Also found a new gimp version and decided to get that one as well. I uninstalled all old drivers and the old gimp before installing the new ones

So I got my pen tablet working and gimp 2.8 installed. Everything seemed to be just fine until I tried to add my tablet as an input devise. Gimp just does not show tablet on the list, it wont recognize it's pressure sensitivity or any similar things the tablet is supposed to do. I restarted my computer between installing the drivers and the latest gimp, I restarted after installing gimp. Heck, I've restarted my computer about a dozen times today and still nothing gimp wont find my tablet. I've deleted my old profile data from the .gimp2.6 folder in the uninstalling process so it cant be about that

I tried searching fixes and things that worked for 2.6 but none of those worked for me so here I am. I tried using both the latest drivers and the ones that came with the tablet but neither made gimp recognize the tablet that is working just fine with every other program in existence

I'm running win7

GIMP :: Recognize Tablet As Being Pressure Sensitive

Jan 7, 2014

As a new gimp and tablet user, I'd had some difficulty making my tablet feel like I wanted it to. After looking at numerous tutorials, I spent a day customizing a brush that would respond well to my tablet's innate pressure sensitivity. The brush worked perfectly that day! Since then, however, I've needed to customize my brushes everyday, and mess with my tablet until the brushes actually respond to pressure sensitivity.I guess the big question is: how do I cause Gimp to recognize my tablet as being pressure sensitive each time I launch it?

Photoshop :: CS6 Won't Recognize Tablet Pen Pressure

Nov 8, 2013

Photoshop suddenly stopped recognizing pen pressure from my tablet yetsterday. I'm using a Wacom Bamboo Connect tablet on a Windows 8 computer with Photoshop CS6
 
I've tried:

1. uninstalling the drivers
2. checking wintab files were gone from system32 and sysWOW64
3. restarting
4. reinstalling drivers
5. checking new wintab files are present
6. restarting

I updated photoshop (and repeated those 5 steps), reinstalling the drivers as an admin, reset the paintbrush tool, but no matter what I do, when I go to the Shape Dynamics option in Photoshop, I get the triangle with the exclamation point telling me that I need a pressure sensitive tablet.

I've tried plugging the tablet in and then opening photoshop.I've tried opening Photoshop and then plugging in the tablet.I updated the drivers for all of the hardware on my computer.
 
I've tried the pressure sensitivity in two other (non Adobe) programs and it works there, so it doesn't seem like a problem with the tablet itself.

Photoshop :: Won't Recognize My Tablet Stylus

Apr 23, 2006

I installed Photoshop 6 on a HP tablet computer and when I try to get photoshop to respond with pen size and preasure to the preasure I use to apply my stylus to the screen it acts like I'm using a mouse. I have a Wacom stylus pad and Photoshop can respond to preasure sensitivity, with the Wacom. How can I get Photoshop to recognize my HP tablet stylus?

GIMP :: Tablet Not Working With 2.8?

Aug 20, 2012

I have a Genius 8x6 tablet, and it worked fine with 2.6. 2.8 doesn't register the pressure on my tablet. I checked another thread about 2.8 not registering tablets, and it said to configure input devices and change the pen setting. I don't have a pen option on the devices list. All that shows up is is the core pointer/ mouse.

GIMP :: Tablet Won't Work In 2.8?

May 24, 2012

I just updated to GIMP 2.8, and my tablet -a digipro WP5540- does not work with GIMP unless it is in disabled mode under input devices. When "disabled", it works except with no pressure sensitivity. When "enabled", the tablet can be used to click on menu options and the brush will follow the tablet position at random intervals only when the cursor is not on the canvas.

GIMP :: Brushes Freaking Out When Using Tablet

Jan 28, 2014

Recently I have been noticing that while I am drawing on gimp using my tablet at times the brushes start to freak out and just keep rotating constantly.

I cant make a straight line using a rectangle shaped brush. And this happens to all the brushes. It just makes everything look really messy.

GIMP :: Set Keys Of Graphics Tablet On Pen?

Dec 11, 2011

My graphics tablet is Wacom CLT-470/K (pen) without buttons on tablet. But my pen have two buttons and i want to know, how to set up them. For example i want that when i tap first button, undo the last change occurred. Of course i can set in properties of tablet driver (then tap first button, ctrl+z occured), but GIMP (!) still understand that first button (near the pen tip) is right mouse button, and second is middle mouse button, ever after reload GIMP. In old version GIMP, like 2.2.17, gimp understand pen button in accordance to properties of tablet driver, but old verstion is too unstable.

GIMP :: Canvas Not Redrawing With Tablet Use In 2.8.4?

Feb 17, 2013

After updating to GIMP2.8.4 I am seeing a constant problem with the canvas not updating after any change unless I move the cursor out of the image area. It starts updating immediately but if I move the cursor back it stops even if it hasn't finished redrawing. This is not just for image changes; the selection outline does not update either unless I move the cursor out of the image area! There's another problem with the selection outline - sometimes it just stops displaying, period, and I ave to use quick mask or save and close GIMP.

GIMP :: Unable To Draw On Tablet In 2.8?

Oct 20, 2012

I had to restore my laptop to factory settings, which means I needed to re-install GIMP too. So I went to download GIMP on the site, and 2.8 was the only version there so I went for it. Installed my tablet too, with driver. GIMP recognizes the tablet, but whenever I try to draw, I get a semi see-through line, instead of a bold one - and there is no change in this when I change the pressure on the pen. When I used it before, it always changed the opacity of the brush in accordance with the pressure on the pen. But I don't know how to change this in GIMP now?

GIMP :: Pen Tablet Position Incorrect?

May 14, 2011

Using:
TB-5300 Slimline Design Tablet
Windows 7 (32 and 64 bit, problem occurs on both)

The problem I am having is that the X-coordinate for my pen tablet is incorrect. The paint brush appears to the left of the screen and doesn't move as far left/right as my pen does. By moving the position of the drawing area I have found that pressure works correctly. Strangely, the position of the mouse when being controlled by the pen tablet is correct, it's just the paint brush which is wrong.

I can correct this problem by uninstalling the pen tablets drivers, but then the pressure sensitivity stops working.

This problem fixed itself for about a few days, but then came back without anything apparently having changed in that time.

It's occuring in both a 32 and 64 bit version of windows.

GIMP :: Tablet Not Detecting Pressure Levels?

Oct 31, 2013

I'm trying to get the pressure levels for my tablet working right. I want it to increase hardness when I press harder, but instead hardness DECREASES. Is there a way to flip it around? The matrix just seems to be booleans, with only checkmarks or no checkmarks.

Actually, scratch that. Now the pressure levels aren't detecting AT ALL. I have the tablet enabled in Input Devices, and the pen is Pressure-Opacity but nothing changes based on pressure.

I tried this video but the fix did not work.

GIMP :: Tablet Pen Cursor On Dual Monitor?

Oct 1, 2013

I'm having the problem with pen cursor when i use dual-monitor.

Before I run GIMP everything work fine, The pen cursor can move in both monitors.But when I run GIMP, It lock my pen area into only the main monitor, even if I close GIMP. So I need to restart my PC to use both monitor with my pen.

It seems to be fine locking pen cursor area in a single monitor, But GIMP cursor IS NOT CORRECT with pen cursor. They both should be the same, But they are not. As you can see in the photo.

I've tried changing the input mode for tablet to Screen and Window. But it still doesn't work.

PS.I'm running GIMP in Window 7 (32Bit), My tablet pen is Kanvus Life H85

GIMP :: Tablet Doesn't Appear In Devices Menu

Feb 4, 2014

I have a new computer that has Windows 8. I have attempted this with BOTH Gimp 2.8 AND 2.6. I have a regular Wacom Bamboo Tablet.

I've been hunting online for HOURS, and all I find are the same answers that don't work for me. What I find are answers like "Enable the pen and eraser in the Devices menu" and such and such. No, that does not work. Only the core pointer shows up in the devices menu, and there is NO WAY to change that. In the Input Controllers menu, what show up are DirectX DirectInput, Mouse Buttons, Keyboard, and Main Mouse Wheel. All of these are activated. Despite every attempt I've made, nothing changes. The tablet pen and eraser DOES NOT SHOW UP AT ALL.

Again, Core Pointer is the ONLY device that appears in the Input Devices. All available controllers are active. The tablet is plugged in, and YES, I opened Gimp WITH the tablet. I'm an artist who uses Gimp, so not having the ability to draw is like not having my lifeblood.

GIMP :: Tablet Pressure Sensitivity Test

Mar 2, 2012

If there is a way of testing the pens sensitivity to pressure in real-time. I can hear it now. "Draw a line dummy."

To be more specific, any tool that can test number of levels of pressure sensitivity that a pen is capable of. I thought for sure I would find some downloadable software somewhere but no luck.

I'm using a Bamboo Pen and interested in how to verify it is in good working condition and reaching it's whopping 512 levels of sensitivity and also whether I'm pressing harder then I need to.

GIMP :: Tablet Pressure Sensitivity Not Working - OSX

Jan 7, 2014

I am using GIMP 2.8, and the brush dynamics do not seem to work. Whenever I use Pressure/Opacity, no matter how hard or light I press, nothing happens to the opacity.

I tested my tablet's pressure sensitivity using the built in pressure test. Everything seems fine. It works fine with Photoshop CS2, but I want to use GIMP.

Everything seems fine when I use Speed/Size & Opacity.

Additional Information:

OS: Mac OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard
Tablet: Huion H690
GIMP: 2.8.2

GIMP :: Wacom Tablet Eraser Tool On Stylus?

Aug 11, 2011

I'm having a problem with my Wacom tablet. The stylus tool works fine (gradients, pen, paint) except for the erase tool - it won't erase to full transparency when I select the erase tool then drag my stylus. This is weird, since the actual eraser end of the stylus works fine: I just hate using that end of the tool, and much prefer using the stylus' pointed end to do all my work.

GIMP :: 2.7.3 Compiled But Tablet Greyed Out In Input Devices

Aug 31, 2011

OS: Ubuntu 11.04
Arch: AMD64
Desktop Manager: Gnome 3

I recently blew away my Ubuntu 10.10 and installed 11.04. Not liking Unity, I figured I would try Gnome 3. After getting Gnome 3 set up, I downloaded babl,gegl, and gimp tarballs and proceeded to install all sorts of dependencies(required and many optional ones) via apt-get packages.

I then compiled babl(0.1.4), gegl(0.1.6), glib(2.29.8) gtk+(2.24.5) and finally gimp 2.7.3(note that all the above are from the gimp.org ftp site. Prior to compiling gtk+, gimp failed on the make with some really strange errors, which is why I compiled my own copy. Also note, ALL of the above were compile into a different prefix with :

./configure --prefix=/home/joefrazierjr/opt

Once I finally got GIMP compiled, I can see my tablet in the input devices, but they are greyed out along with all of the below:

SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad
Virtual core XTEST Pointer
Wacom Bamboo Fun 6x8 cursor
Wacom Bamboo Fun 6x8 eraser
Wacom Bamboo Fun 6x8 pad
Wacom Bamboo Fun 6x8 stylus

The ONLY thing that is NOT greyed out is Core Pointer.

The main reason I complied is because for whatever reason,the PPA package available does not also install Python(but does let the tablet work).

Note that I am comfortable with "using" the shell, but am a power user in linux, so assume that I know nothing about linux in any replies. Also, if I need to remove, any of the compiled code and recompile, I assume running "make clean"will fix it up correctly?

Note, my Bamboo Fun works fine in MyPaint(with pressure sensitivity,etc), so the issue is with either GIMP compile itself or GTK appsin general(If MyPaint is GTK or not). Also, I still have the build folders, so if I need to link to any of the config.log files, I will put on my dropbox.

GIMP :: Won't Recognize Images That Downloaded Using Nikon Transfer

Aug 12, 2012

GIMP won't recognize images I downloaded using Nikon Transfer. They are in the Pictures library and a Nikon Transfer file shows with everything else when I click File Open, but I can't bring them up to work on in a normal way. I was able to physically move one of the images, listed as DSC, from Nikon Transfer to the Gimp window and modify it normally, but the image was very tiny in a full-screen Gimp window, (which lately I can't permanently get back to the normal size). Saved the image as xcf and jpg and placed in a new file, but still can't work on it.

GIMP :: Making Tablet And Mouse Pointer Act As Separate Mediums

Nov 11, 2013

I don't know if the section I'm posting this question in is certainly correct but I just can't figure out one thing that "my" GIMP used to possess years ago, while I was using it for the first time. And which doesn't seem to occur anymore after some more releases.

Now, to the point:

I'm using a WACOM Bamboo tablet and -- I need to make my core pointer use decent brushing parameters than my tablet rubber and stylus. The effect I'm seeking is to enable using my mouse pointer as a rubber with increased brush size comparing to the thin brush I'm using while drawing with the tablet. The brush size seems to be the same regardless of which tool I'm using at a time, and it stinks, because if I could use them in a decent way, my work would be way enhanced. I just need to know how to make those two mediums behave adversely.

Photoshop :: Using A Pen And Tablet

Jun 14, 2004

I just bought myself a new digital pen by e3Works. It is pressure sentitive, giving greater width in response to heavier pen pressure. I don't always want this feature. If I am trying to paint an accurate mask, I might want the width to be consistent, regardless of pressure. This pen does not have a software interface of it's own. Can I make such a change within Photoshop?

Photoshop :: Tablet PC's?

Mar 30, 2009

Ive been interested in purchasing a Tablet PC for some time.
But one thing Ive always been concerned with is how feasible they were regarding serious art work.

Many Forums discussing Tablet PCs involve working with academic software.
Im trying to gather information from strictly the art side of things.

My major questions would be

1. Stylus Pressure sensitivity: (how accurate is this?)
Stylus response time: (any lag ?)

2: Hotkey assignments:
When the table screen is flipped over to draw, how does one access all those much needed hotkeys?

Photoshop :: Pen And Tablet

Aug 23, 2007

I've recently bought Adobe Photoshop CS3, I previously had CS2. In CS2, when I connected by pen and tablet, Photoshop would automatically detect and ammend all my brushes so they're sensitive to touch, etc.

However, with CS3, this isn't the case. Photoshop doesn't do anything to the brushes, I've tried the shape dynamics but have failed so far.
