I have an older Graphire model Wacom tablet. With PS7 I had option to get a "magnified" pen movement mode where moving the pen across the full tablet moved the cursor on the screen only a small distance.
Was great for detail work. Now that I have upgraded to Vista and downloaded the new driver I can not seem to find that option. Am I not looking at right spot in Wacom setup, or is it not available with this combination?
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'm using OS 10.6.8 and the latest Epson drivers for the 3880. I have re-installed both PS and the Epson drivers. If I print from Acrobat Reader everything seems to work fine, this only is happening in Photoshop CS5.
For some reason while in text mode, all letters stay locked in Cap mode. My cap lock key is not on?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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 penAll 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.

I’m not sure about the current “annotation scale” in case of lay out mode.
Annotation scale option is displayed only in the model and viewport mode but not in the lay out mode (attached)!
Based on what annotative objects living on the lay out but neither in the model (or viewport) are re-sized? At this mode, there is no option to choose the annotation scale?
On other words, how to choose the annotation scale in the lay out mode?
I 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.
I need some input on buying a Tablet, I am looking at the Graphire2 and the Intuos2, I understand that the Intuos2 is better but does the Graphire2 work good with photoshop?

I have a chance to get a small Wacom tablet, its a older version ,screen size 4x5, It comes with all the software, Also has Elements 2.0 My question is,can I also use it with CS3?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI 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)?
I 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.

recommendations in this area?
I 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.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'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.
I'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?

I just got a wcom bamboo capture and I'm trying to use it with photoshop 5 and when i try to draw with the tablet it only draws straight lines. When I draw on the laptop touch pad it'll do any curved line i want.
The tablet recognizes that im moving the pen in a curved motion but no matter whati do it only produces straight lines.
Using 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.
50% of time I do this the style menu come up instead.
With mouse, no problem, with Wacom pen, this happens.
I don't see a right click option to change a layer name, maybe I don't see it?
I 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?
Whilst 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.
What I have tried to fix the problem:
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)
Updated nVidia drivers.
Updated motherboard drivers.

I 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.

Just been fiddling about with cs4 and realised there is no pressure sensitivity in the brushes -
It does it with the previous and latest driver.
Well, I just hooked up my old Bamboo tablet (the medium size) and downloaded
the new drivers. The reports of issues with the pen tablet are well founded.
For me I have several issues...
1. If you press to hard on the pen you get this animated ring and then a
brush adjustment dialog pops up. I hate this thing but can't figure out how
to turn it off. If this is supposed to be useful it isn't at least not for
me, it is so annoying. I don't know if this is a Photoshop thing or a Wacom
thing but I hate it. If anyone knows of a way to turn this off please let me
know.
2. The brush is very choppy when you are painting, etc. What I have noticed
however is that as you paint even if you never pull the pen from the tablet
surface Photoshop is creating dozens of history states as it does this
Photoshop must be doing something with memory or scratch space because it is
during the rapid creation of history states that it causes the pen to pause
making it seem choppy. I have no idea why Adobe would set it up this way.
When I create a single stroke no matter how much area I cover that should be
one history state and not dozens.
I'm a CS3 user, but just downloaded CS4 for trial. Unfortunately based on my experience so far it's unuseable. The problem is that Clone, Healing, Brush tools do not respond to my Wacom Mouse (I can move brushes around, but can not apply any corrections).
 If I use the Wacom pen, it works fine. I've seen a few posting on the Internet from others with the same problem, but can't see any solutions identified. I have Vista Ultimate 64, Intuos Tablet/Pen/Mouse, 8GB Memory and latest tablet drivers.
I am getting ready to bite the bullet for a Wacom Cintiq 21 ux or wx. But I am unsure as to what the current consensus (if any) is relative to the normal or wide screen.
I currently have a 3 monitor system with a 21 inch wide screen in the center surrounded by two 19 inch screens.
has anyone heard of any other models Wacom may come out with?
