Photoshop :: Wacom And Other Tablets: Which To Get?
Jun 13, 2006I'm thinking of getting one of these drawing tablets - but thought I'd ask you all about them.
Plenty of reviews in magazines, but I'd rather hear from people using them everyday.
Who here uses which tablet? What do you recommend?
NB I use a G5 Mac running OSX (10.4.6)
Photoshop :: Looking At Wacom Tablets...
Jul 25, 2005I apologize if this is posted in the wrong forum, but it seems to apply to techniques, so...I'm looking at Wacom tablets and hoping to buy one soon. My primary use would be for digital painting in Photoshop and the 6x8 size seems to be about right. Can anyone make any suggestions about whether I should go with Intuos or Graphire? I'm leaning toward the Intuos3 6x8, but that can get a bit pricey, even with academic discounts.
So I guess I have two questions. a) Does the Graphire series have what it takes to allow high-quality digital painting? b) Is there some way to find tablets for a lower price (I qualify for most academic discounts)?
Photoshop :: Eraser Tools With Wacom Tablets?
Apr 22, 2013Would like to add improvement to assit drawing in Photoshop
Â
1. flipping wacom pen to pressure sensitive eraser photoshop switch to eraser tools, but the top menu did not switch to eraser properties
Â
* would like switching to eraser tip, top menu also change to eraser options together, when flipping back to pen's tip, photoshop auto switch back to previous tool options this implies current workflow would be drawing and erasing with toolbox or shortcut B, E together with wacom pen tip rather than quick switch to eraser side. (if you need to change eraser options)
 Â
2. Photoshop CS5, CS6 for windows, while using wacom eraser tip to change Size or Hardness slide bars from the top, would remove the integer number inside the dialog, it causes a dialog would pop up with "An integer between 1 pixel and 5000 Pixels is required. Closest value inserted."
Â
Click OK and popup will disappear, Size/Hardness would be filled with correct selected number again, it is troublesome, as size and hardness changes a lot while drawing. have to keep clicking OK on every changes.
(on screen opacity and flow slidebars works fine)Â Â Same changes to Size/Hardness slide bar work with normal pen tips side, and if using pen tips alone, (not using eraser tip) it is wonderful with new brush size & color picker shortcut added from CS5
Â
#2 has been tested in mac version photoshop CS4, both Size and Hardness slider works fine without problem.
Â
#1 + #2 made me work with pen tip + hot keys B,E all the time,  eraser side is almost not in use, except erasing with the same size & hardness from last used
Photoshop :: Difference Between Wacom Bamboo Create Tablet And A Wacom Intuos
Nov 2, 2012I'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.

Mar 6, 2005I was just wondering how many of you use tablets to do your photoshop work. I think I have come to the point where I could really use one to enhance my abilities. I did a search on here and came up with the Wacom name and I researched them a little bit and it looks like they have a great product. But I'm not really ready to pay 100 bucks for the smallest one. I'm looking more in the range of 40-50 bucks tops.

May 11, 2004I just got in my Kodak DX4530 5.0MP Camera and Wacom ARTZII 12"x12" graphics tablet (256 levels of pressure). They are both setup and working fine!
Luckily enough the Kodak Camera is an easy "plug in play", in that I can plug it in, turn it on, and WinXP automatically makes it a "removable storage" device. Go in, pull images off, open in PS:CS, good to go.
My question is, who here uses Graphics Tablets. I've been told by SO MANY people that though they are odd and hard to master, once you do you'll never want to go back to mouse. Where I'm sure that nothing could COMPLETELY replace the gool ol mouse, such a tool for tracing, and perfect replication of the handwriting and drawing must come rather useful at many times.
Who here uses a tablet? What kind is it, and what can you recommend for someone starting out with one? How durable are these overlays? I noticed the stylus was battery and cordless.

View 3 Replies View RelatedGIMP :: Pressure Sensitivity For Tablets?
Jun 9, 2013I have a Digipro tablet that I'm trying to use with GIMP on Mac OS X. I cannot get the pressure sensitivity to work. I've tried:
1) Setting the Quartz Pen in Input Devices to Screen Mode (also Quartz eraser) so that it will detect the pen.
2) Creating a new dynamic and adjusting pressure settings. The pen is detected but pressure settings aren't applied. Preset pressure dynamics don't work, either.
3) Making sure the pen pressure is working; it works fine in photoshop.
Does GIMP 2.8 not support Digipro?
Photoshop :: PS CS4 + Wacom In XP
Apr 29, 2009I just got my wacom intuos A5 USB a couple of days back and its working perfectly on my mac. No issues at all but I tried using it on my desktop and im having 2 major issues. 1. I have only "other dynamics" checked and opacity controlled by pen pressure. If i am making light strokes with the pen i get a few low opacity strokes is i should but I suddenly get a full pressure (100% opacity) stroke even though im hardly applying and pressure. These are sudden pressure spikes and are completely random. 2. The pen tilt is not working. I set color dynamics to pen tilt but the color doesn't change as i tilt the pen All this works perfectly on my mac so I know theres nothing wrong with the tablet but how do I solve these issues. Im hoping someone here will help me out. P.S. - I have an Intel 2.5 Quad Core, gigabite Mother board, 4gb ram, nvidia GeForce 6600GT - 256mb. I also have a beetel router connected to my desktop.

Jun 13, 2012I am on the creative cloud and have down loaded and successfully installed PS6. I am a professional illustrator and use the Wacom tablet. My concern is with the pen pressure effect not staying on. I have went to option on PS6 and checked for updates and down loaded them with no results and called support as well .
I went to the Wacom sit as well to check to if my drivers are updated and they are, and called their support as well with no results. I understand that PS6 is a new product and that I may have to wait for patches, that is fine.

Apr 16, 2009I can't get pen tilt working in Photoshop CS4. If I choose pen tilt option in brush shape for shape dynamics it works as if the control would be set to pen pressure sensitivity. Diagnostics in driver options show tilt is detected. Tilt only works for angle control in CS4. And I'm using the latest update for CS4. In spite of this, i tried my intuos4 in corel sketchpad and it works great, just as expected. It detects pressure, tilt angle and tilt direction. I don't know what could be the problem. Can someone confirm having tilt working in CS4?I'd like to use tilt for roundness control.

Photoshop :: Wacom Tablet?
Jun 18, 2008I use my Wacom Saphire CTE 430 for all my software. Recently I decided to move from Corel PhotoPaint to CS3. However, I am experiencing a very strange problem. If I use the mouse none of the photo shop paint tools work. If I use the pen the paint tools work but others do not. At first I thought is was my ignorance of PS and that I just needed to configure something. I eventually discovered that if I disconnect the tablet Photoshop works fine. I have downloaded and installed the latest Wacom Vista drivers as suggested by Wacom but it has not fixed the problem. PS is the ONLY program experiencing problems with the tablet. I run AutoCad 2008, Sketchup Pro and CorelDRAW X3 suite and they work flawlessly.

Jun 12, 2008I'm currently using Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Windows XP with an Wacom Intuos 3 tablet.
The problem I'm having is that when I use the tablet pen to click anywhere in
Photoshop, the cursor essentially locks in place and does not move. On the canvas, this means I can only place dots. This happens whether I'm clicking on tools, scrollbars, etc...
I used to be able to use it fine in CS2, but then it stopped working on day, and I thought that maybe upgrading would solve the issue. However, this has just left me with the same issue.
The pen does work normally in all other programs, such as in MS Paint or when clicking and dragging to select icons on the desktop. Also, clicking and dragging with a mouse works normally.
Photoshop :: Wacom Pressure
Jan 16, 2008I'm using CS2 and a Wacom pressure sensitive graphics tablet that's about ten years old. I've noticed that the pen's pressure sensitivity only works on brushes that have a hardness control slider. I would love to use the smudge tool with certain brushes but I can't because most of the brush shapes don't have pressure sensitivity with the Wacom pen, Is this normal? Is there any way to get all my brushes to have pressure sensitivity with my Wacom pen?

Photoshop :: Wacom Driver In CC On OSX 10.9 Mavericks
Aug 14, 2013Using Wacom Bamboo CTL-460 on my i Mac and have noticed strange Photoshop CC (and CS6) behavior since the first beta of OSX 10.9 Mavericks. After a couple of actions with brushes, colors, moving layers and zooming in/out, my PS gets stuck. It shows brush tool, which can move, but I can do nothing till I switch to another app and then get back to PS. Shortcuts don't wort either.
There are some messages on Adobe forums about PS shortcuts not working properly on 10.9. I thought it might be a bug in OS with it's all-new memory processing, correlating with PS engine somehow, until I plugged my mouse in... everything worked just fine with it! Double-checked this on i Mac and Mac Book Pro: all the same on both machines.

So Wacom driver is definitely causing the issue. The latest driver update does not solve it.

Photoshop :: Wacom Intuos 5 Not Recognized In CC?
Sep 3, 2013I recently became a subscriber to the creative cloud as well as recently getting a wacom intuos 5. The problem is, my new photoshop cc, does not show that I have a pressure sensitve tablet.
Is there a new driver from adobe that I need to install? I checked the Wacom site and as far as I can tell I have the newest driver available. Also, I do have photoshop cs5.5 could these two versions of photoshop be causing a problem when it comes to the tablet?
Photoshop :: Wacom Pen Pressure Not Working?
Feb 20, 2013Whilst drawing in either photshop or SAI, the pen pressure sensitivity would just randomly fail and draw solid thick lines as if drawn with the mouse.See image:
What I also learned, is that once the pressure sensitivity falls out, it doesn't recover until I lift the pen away from the tablet, and then back again, as seen in the following pic:Sometimes it would fail on the 2nd brush stroke, others on the 100th. It's completely random.
Â
What I have tried to fix the problem:
Â
Complete removal of drivers and Bamboo dock, then fresh install from the bundled disc.
Complete removal of drivers and Bamboo dock, then fresh installation from the lates driver download (PenTablet_532-1)

Photoshop :: Wacom Tablet Not Working In CS4
Dec 14, 2008I have Wacom Bamboo Fun with latest drivers, use Vista 64 and run PS in 64bit mode. I uninstalled CS3 before installing CS4. The tablet worked in CS3 as expected, but CS4 ignored pen pressure - it always worked like mouse - with maximum pressure. In order to fix this problem I uninstalled and reinstalled Wacom drivers and cleared PS preferences by starting PS with Alt-Ctrl-Shift. Now Photoshop ignores the tablet completely - the cursor won't move and I need to use mouse to navigate in Photoshop.
