Lightroom :: How To Reduce Wacom Pen Sensitivity
Nov 28, 2012
I prerfer to use my Wacom pen/tablet (wide A5 size; almost A4 in landscape mode) when working in LR4 but I find it far too sensitive when working in the Develop module. For example the smallest movement I am able to make with the pen can change exposure by 0.2 (EV, I assume). which can make a very big difference to the image. Even the action of lifting the pen off the tablet, having 'set' a value, causes the value to change by an unacceptable amount.
Â
Surely this is not how it should work, is it? I am having to use keyboard input to enter values to get what I want.

I followed the instruction in the Mudbox help > Appendices > Tablet Setup including installing the latest drivers. Everything seems to work fine except pen pressure has no influence on brush size or sensitivity. One other post mentioned he had to roll back to a previous driver version.

I got this issue since I got my new windows system.Â
Â
I do my daily Photoshop session with my Wacom Intuos 4, then randomly later, sensitivity of the pen turns off. The only way to recover the problem is to reboot Photoshop and sometime the whole system.Â
Â
why it doing that?
Â
I downloaded the latest Wacom drivers and Photoshop CS4 is up to date and the problem still persist.

I bought a Wacom cintiq 22hd online and before it arrived I imagined before it came that all I would have to do is plug it in and install the software and that would be it but no....Â
This turned out to be a real nightmare to use, first after I finished calibrating the tablet this annoying loading circle kept appearing around the point every time I tried to draw something, Then after I had been able to fix it from running around the internet looking for solutions the pressure sensitive feature stopped working I looked around again to find a solution and people were saying update the driver software and I did then after rebooting my machine it no longer works and every time i tried to view the tablet settings it kept saying "THE TABLET DRIVER WAS NOT FOUND"
I had to uninstall the driver and recalibrate it and the pressure sensitive feature still isn't working. Personally I think this is complete BS I can't understand why Wacom a highly regarded company would delibratelly make their tablets more complicated to use than they need to be, I really am clueless as to what I can do to fix this I don't think reinstalling the "WacomTablet_635-3" driver software. What I can do I am using Windows 7 64 bit
Well because i went to the wacom forum site to try and get some answers but when I went to go sign up for an account it kept saying that my criteria was invalid even though it wasn't another reason to loose faith in Wacom and their useless business structure and unuseful customer support.

I am using PSCS 3 and I have a wacom Intuos 2 tablet I used to use. Recently I hooked it back up as I am going to start doing more illustration (just been doing photography and using lightroom).
Â
PS is not reacting to the sensitivity settings. I downloaded the latest Wacom drivers today and when I open the wacom control panel the setting show the pen sensitivity is working. In the PS brushes panel I have tried "shape" dynamics and "other" dynamics both set to "pen presure" and still no effect. I've tried adjusting the sliders from 0%, to 50% and 100% all with no effect. Also for some reason PS does not recognize the eraser. It just acts like the pen. Again, in the wacom control panel when I look at the eraser it recognizes it (doesn't resond if I use the pen side).

I have a Wacom Intuos 3 tablet, photoshop CS6 and Windows 7. The pressure sensitivity of my tablet won't work anymore. Roughly, it said to uninstall my wacom driver, unplug the tablet, reboot, install driver, plug in the tablet and reset my preferences in photoshop. I've done this last night and it worked, I was thrilled but it was late, was exhausted,When I turned it back on and went in photoshop this morning it didn't work anymore, pressure sensitivity was gone again. I get this little warning in my brush settings when I try to put it on Pen Pressure or tilt or other setting that requires pressure sensitivity, The only way I can get it to work is with the process I mentioned (uninstalling driver, unplugging tablet, rebooting etc...) but I'd need to do this every time I shut down my computer and that's a bit of a pain..I've also tried installing different drivers, the latest one first, when that didn't work I tried older ones to see if it would make a difference to no avail.

I Bought a Wacom Bamboo Tablet when I first discovered Paint.net and then soon after they removed pressure sensitivity from the software. So now any plugin created for it so I can use my Tablet again.

i am trying to reduce the sensitivity of osnaps by changing the aperture. However, no matter how big or small I make the setting, my snaps are still way too sensitive. I can move my crosshairs across a whole line that's 48 inches long and I can only snap to an endpoint or midpoint (I want to just snap somewhere along the line). I have tuned on the option that shows the aperture, and it's definitely changing astetically, however the behavior of osnaps have not changed

In Photoshop CS6 (64bit), when using the brush tool (with a brush with pressure sensitivity activated), I quite often get a line drawn at the max width selected, as if there was no pressure sensitivity. Everything goes back to normal after I start drawing another line, and happens again after a few lines. It's quite random. Â
Â
I don't have this problem in any other software (Illustrator CS6 64bit, Painter XII, Sketchbook Pro, Zbrush, ...). I have already checked and I've found some other users on other forums with the same problem.
One example, with a picture of the problem: [URL] Another one, exact same problem: [URL] Some of those users seem to have solved their problem by installing an old driver (6.1.5r3), but they had that problem with Intuos TABLETS in the first place, not a Cintiq 24HD... I have tried that, but unfortunately the driver is not compatible with the Cintiq 24HD.
 Â
To test this out: I've been able to reproduce the problem 90% of the times I've tried. if I keep the pen at 1 inch from the display so that it's still recognized by the screen but it's not drawing, then wiggle it a bit, and then I slowly move to the screen and tap it (as if I was starting a line with very low pressure), the problem appears and it makes a large dot, as if there was no pressure sensitivity. As I said the test doesn't work every time, but almost.
 Â
This is an image of what happens when I try and make dots in Photoshop. These are done trying to push the pen with the same (low) pressure. The big ones are from when the issue appears: [URL]Â
Â
I have tried the pressure test in the Wacom utility software and it seems to work fine, it never jump to full even when I try the method I've just described. In the diagnostic page of the Wacom utility software the pressure is always correct, even when in Photoshop there's the brush sensitivity issue.
Â
note: I've already tried to completely re-install my computer + the Adobe software + the lastest wacom driver for my Cintiq 24HD, and the problem is still the same.

I'm looking to get a wacom tablet, but I'm not really sure what tablet it best for digital art and animation type stuff. I'll be using it with Photoshop CS6 and probably Toon Boom or some other animation software. I'm just not sure what the difference is between the tablets.

I have been using LR2 v2.6 along with wacom intuit 4 for several years. All of a sudden, several months ago, both started freezing up. In looking at the problem details it shows that the tablet.dll is unloaded.

Lightroom 4.2
Windows 7
Wacom Intuos 5
Â
When using the Spot edit tool and my Wacom stylus it freezes lightroom for several seconds on certain files. Same file types and locations may not have the problem, but some do. Has happened on TIFs, PSDs and cR2s. The cursor disappears and will not show when placed over the LR window. I can access other windows and the cursor works fine. It does not tell me the program is not responding, but I can't do anything with it. After 30 seconds or so the cursor shows up and I can work. However, if I try to use the stylus and spot edit tool again on the same image, it will cause the cursor delay again. If I use my mouse, no delay. Sometimes it does not happen with Wacom stylus. From user stand point appears to be random which files it happens and which it doesn't.

I've been using Photoshop 6.x with my Intuos 5 for almost a year and it's been great. I recently purchased Lightroom 5.2 only to discover that when I use the spot edit tool that it freezes when i use this tool as a brush. It starts off smooth, but after brushing across my area i want to clone/heal, Lightroom seems to freeze up, and the spot edit tool is unusable. I can lift my pen off the tablet and a few seconds later Lightroom comes back, but the tablet is basically unusable to me. The mouse works perfectly fine.
Lightroom version: 5.2 [922700]
Operating system: Windows 7 Ultimate Edition
Version: 6.1 [7601][code].....

I make heavy use of image stacks. After some time I want to clean up my catalog. Therefore I'm looking for a "reduce stack" feature like in "Photoshop Elements Organizer" that keeps the top image only and deletes all other images of the stack.
Â
Is this feature available in Lightroom 5.2?

For pictures taken in low light, I manually edit noise reduction levels.
Â
Is there any plugin that reduces noise automatically (or semi-automatically)?
Â
Long time ago, I used a separate tool that automatically reduces noises, but I'm wondering why LR still doesn't provide this feature.

I have an image that I took in RAW with a Canon 5D. I then masked a large portion of the image using the adjustments brush. The result was what I wanted but the image is now very large. I exported the image to a DNG to retain editability. The resulting DNG is 53,679 kb. If I export the image to a JPG at 25% quality limiting the size to 2000 pixels on the longest edge I still get a 7,795 kb image.
Â
I have had this problem with masking before. Is there any way to get rid of the bloat that the masking caused?

I would like to e-mail about 50 photos to someone. I can reduce the size of the photos in "Export," but even if I compress them into an archive file, the file is too big to send. I tried compressing just 10 photos at a time... the archive file is still too large to e-mail. Is there another way to e-mail large groups of photos from Lightroom? I have Lightroom 3.

LR4.1 on OSX 10.7.4.
Â
For the D700, LR has several "extraneous" camera profiles that I don't care about: a half-dozen or so D2X profiles(?), and both pre-v4 and v4 versions of the five standard ones (standard, landscape, etc.)
Â
I would like to get rid of the extras, i.e. take them off the list, to make choosing the profile I want easier. IOW, I would like there to just be the five v4 profiles on the list.
Â
For LR3.6, the profiles were in /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Camera Raw/Camera Profiles/Camera. I zipped up the profiles I didn't want, then deleted the individual files, and everything worked great, i.e. LR only showed the five remaining profiles.
Â
However, 4.1 apparently doesn't use that location, because it still shows the entire list. I poked around a bit and found the profiles apparently embedded in the app directory, i.e. LR.app/Contents/Resources/Camera Profiles/Camera. That seems … odd. (Do both Photoshop CS6 and LR4 have them embedded in the respective apps, thus duplicating all of those files?) In addition, it makes it harder to do what I'm trying to do, because OSX complains that LR.app can't be changed.
Â
So, is there a "valid" way to do this in LR4.x?

Is there an ability to archive photos from Lightroom 5 to reduce the size of your catalog? For example, if I have a wedding I shot where I have several hundred photos but I've delivered the final pictures to my client, should I/can I archive these photos out of Lightroom as I'll probably never look at them again but don't want to delete them just in case.Â

I'm running Win 7 on an 64 bit OS machine. LR 4 doesn't display the App control buttons in the upper right hand corner controlling CLOSE, REDUCE and MINMIZE the App. Clickingblindly in their location does nothing either. I can find no way to get them to be functional.

I have 279,94 GB in pictures files and my lightroom catalog backup file is about 272. I tried deleting older backups but had to put them back because Lightroom crashed and had to recover. I moved the Backup folder to an external disk, but seems that I cannot do anything about the files that are in the fomer folder in my computer.

I have only 15 GB left in my 1TB Hard disk iMac !!

I am having problems with my brushes in Photoshop CS4. Everything was fine till recently. I use XP on a PC. I am using a wacom tablet and the brush sensitivity is not working in Photoshop CS4. When I go to the brush drop down or the brush palatte, the brushes are not pressure sensitive for opacity or size as they should be. Yet I have pen pressure selected in shape dynamics & other dynamics. I tried in CS3 which I also have installed and it works fine there and I can use the pen pressure. I spoke with wacom and we updated the driver. Adobe said to reinstall CS 4 which I did…and I still have the problem. BTW, there is a gray exclamation mark next to the shape and other dynamics control drop down window. No one seems to know exactly what this means.I assume it isn't the wacom driver or hardware, as it works fine in CS3. It makes sense to me that the problem is with CS4, but I still have it after reinstalling. Any ideas. I have talked to wacom and adobe multiple times and can't get this resolved.

I have a Calcomp DrawingBoard lll with pressure sensitive stylus which works fine in other applications like Painter 11 but loses its pressure capabilities in CS4 (both AI and PS). The stylus behaves like a mouse but in shape dynamics the pen pressure settings show a warning sign and in AI they are grayed out. It performed correctly in CS3.
