Photoshop :: Wacom Cintiq 24HD Touch Broken In CS6?
Jan 31, 2013I have upgraded to Windows 8 using Adobe Photoshop CS6 (latest Dec update). I have the latest Wacom drivers installed (Nov1) and Photoshop does not respond to pinch to zoom and rotate and it recognizes my hand touching the screen as pen input when using the pen at the same time. Even without the pen I can draw with my finger. Others have reported this under Windows 7 as well. I have an iPad, I don't need this 4K screen to work like an iPad!
This did not happen with older wacom drivers and Windows 7. I need to know how long I am going to have to wait before Adobe acknowledges the problem and when to expect a fix for this. All of us with Photoshop and Wacom Cintiq 24 HD Touch are screwed at the moment. Most other programs are working correctly with both touch and pen (i.e. Painter 12.2, Sketchbook Pro, etc). Most users are resorting all the way back to CS3 with older drivers or turning off Touch input all together to get the pen to work.
Photoshop :: Wacom Cintiq 24HD / CS6 64bit (Windows 7 64bit) Brush Pressure Sensitivity Often Fails
Jul 11, 2012In 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.
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.
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.
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]
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.
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.
Photoshop :: CS5 For Windows Not Working On Dual Monitor Setup?
Nov 19, 2013If I try to open Photoshop CS5 while my second monitor is plugged into my laptop (via VGA cable), it loads normally, but won't display any opened images. I get a gray background and nothing else. [URL](I can even see the tiny image preview in the navigator, but not the image itself.)
However, t'll work just fine if I open Photoshop with the second monitor disconnected and THEN plug it in, so it's not a problem with the dual monitors in general...just when first opening it. It's annoying because, if I'm working on a project and realize I have to make a quick image tweak in Photoshop, I have to unplug the monitor and then rearrange all my windows after Photoshop's done loading and I can plug it back in.
I can't seem to find any information online that specifically mentions this issue. For reference, I'm using Windows 7 on a Lenovo laptop.
Photoshop :: Short Brush Stroke Lag CS6 In Dual Monitor Setup?
Apr 4, 2013When I use a brush or any of the clonehealing tools the brush start lagging when I do you short and quick strokes.
Longer and continuous strokes don't have any lagging going on.
I have reinstalled the driver and tried a few different versions as well but the issue persists. I also tried different settings for the Graphics Processor in preferences but no change.
I am on an Intuos5 L and before that I had the Intuos 3 A4 and I had the problems with that tablet as well.
I am on i5 iMac Quad-Core 2.5ghz, 32gb ram Radeon HD 6750M 512 MB - Mac OS X 10.7.5
Update:After a few testing I realized this lagging appears to happen only when I am on Dual monitor setup.
My main monitor is an Eizo CG222W I have Photoshop setup whereby all my tools and panels are on my iMac and the main window with the image is on my Eizo.When I only use my Eizo with tools and panels then the lagging disappears.
GIMP :: Not Working On Dual Monitor Setup?
Jan 21, 2013I have a laptop running on Windows 8 and have a dual monitor setup with the desktop extended to my LCD monitor(main monitor).
GImp 2.8.2 opens on my main monitor BUT the icons/menu etc don't register my mouse clicks, though I can move and resize the windows, highlight things etc
When I move the Gimp window to my Laptop Screen everything works fine on that screen only?
I have used this setup with Windows Vista with no problems at all and even tried Gimp 2.6 on this setup and it works fine too...
Photoshop :: Jagged Lines With Cintiq 24HD / CS5 - Other Programs Are Fine
Jun 14, 2013Setup: Windows 7, CS5, CIntiq 24HD
I just bought a Cintiq 24HD and tested it in Photoshop CS5. Unfortunately the lines are jagged. (I'm using the brushtool and on my wacom intous 3 everything was fine.) This only appears in PS, Painttool Sai is fine and has great line quality.
At first I thought it might be the second monitor, as this was mentioned in forums, but I moved and unplugged it and nothing happend. I tried other solutions as well like unabeling windows tablet components etc.

Photoshop :: CS6 - Wacom Cintiq / Intuos4 - Pen Drawing Lag
Feb 20, 2013I consider myself to be an advanced Photoshop and computer user. I have worked with Photoshop for several years on a daily basis as a concept and texture artist.
Whenever I draw in Photoshop on either my Cintiq or Intuos4 I experience some rendering lag of my brush strokes. I can draw a line and it takes sometimes about 1 second for it to appear on the screen. The problem is quite frequent and appears on a regular basis. It is quite an annoyance since it kills the illusion of drawing on "paper" and hinders me somewhat from being creative since I have to think of how I draw rather than having my pen being an extension of myself. I have tried everything from resetting Photoshop back to default by holding down CTRL+ALT+SHIFT before startup, but the problem did not disappear. I have also tried to increase and decrease the performance settings under preferences, but it had no positive effect. All my software's and drivers are uptodate and I have consulted Wacom about this issue as well and they say it cannot have anything to do with the drivers since they haven't heard of this issue before. It cannot have anything to do with that the brush I am using is too heavy and is therefore slow to render because even the most basic brushes are slow at times.
I usually work on bigger files with a pixel dimension of 3840x2160@300dpi to 5760x3240@300dpi. I have used the same dimensions for years but never had a problem on for example my laptop, which has only a Dual Core Processor with 4 GB Ram, the only thing the laptop has going for it is the graphics card which is a Nvidia Quadro card. But since it is about 4½ years old, I do not think it is any better than my current graphics card which I have in my stationary PC.

Photoshop :: CS5.1 64-bit Crashes Whole System When Using Wacom Cintiq 13HD
Oct 13, 2013I'm using:
- Windows 7 Premium 64-bit with Service Pack 1
- Intel i7-267OQM 2,2 Ghz CPU
- Nvidia GeForce GT 635M 2GB
- 8GB RAM
- Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 64-bit
- on an ASUS N55S Laptop
My new Wacom Cintiq 13HD runs just fine while just browsing on the internet, with Adobe Illustrator (so far...) and Easy Paint Tool SAI.But everytime I open my Photoshop it's just some minutes before my system freezes for a second, than blue screen appears.
I tried all drivers Wacom has available but it still happens. I updated my Adobe Softwares, my BIOS, my graphic card, I restarted countless times,but nothing seems to work.
Photoshop :: Wacom Cintiq 22hd Pressure Sensitivity?
Mar 25, 2013I 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....
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.
Photoshop :: Sudden And Regular Crash Using Brushes / Wacom Cintiq?
Aug 11, 2012I'm using Photoshop CS5 Extended 64bit (12.0.4) on Win7 Professional (64 bit) and recently have had an issue using my Cintiq 12WX tablet in that using the brush with the tablet (whether I'm using the tablet as the monitor, or my laptop as the monitor) causes Photoshop to crash, usually within the first 30 seconds of usage. This has become so regular that I expect it to crash and no longer can trust it to use, but at the same time I depend on its use to get work done, so an expedient solution is absolutely necessary.
Does not crash if I use brush with a mouse, but that's not exactly a solution either, as you can imagine. I have been using this tablet with this Photoshop for a long time without incident, and I can think of no changes to the system I've made in the period when this began happening.
All drivers for the Cintiq are current.The entirety of the crash report reads as follows:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Application Name: Photoshop.exe
Application Version: 12.0.4.0
Application Timestamp: 4d9d8f8e

Sep 5, 2008I read something about a fellow who uses the 6x8 Wacom on his wide screen monitor, but had to adjust the position of his image so he could access the whole image with the Wacom. (I think he was lamenting about not springing for the 6x11 Wide Format Wacom instead of 6x8, which would have covered his whole screen surface.)
My concern is that neither the 6x8 nor 6x11 will work "well" for me on dual monitors. I usually have the main Ps window with editing image on one monitor, and the palettes on the second monitor. (I do this with Illustrator and Fireworks as well.) I'm concerned that I'll be stuck with "use the mouse to access palettes" / "use the Wacom to draw", wasting my time switching between the two, and benefiting little from either.
Photoshop :: Dual Monitor Lag In CS6
Feb 8, 2013I've been running CS6 on my laptop for the past month with no issues regarding lag.
Today I decided to start using an old monitor as a second display, but whenever it's plugged in there is a huge amount of lag within Photoshop - so much lag that it is pretty much unusable.
From what I can tell, most other programs run fine with this setup (I've tried Sai and After Effects, and both are lag free).
I've tried searching this issue - and there's a lot about configuring refresh rates on the individual monitors so they're the same. Tried that - makes no difference.
Any settings within Photoshop I could tweak to make it run better?
Photoshop :: CS4 With Dual Monitor
Jan 15, 2009I have a dual monitor setup using one video card, and it is configured so that the desktop extends to my second monitor (monitor right).
In CS3 the application with palettes, etc. is on my left monitor and my working document (image) is on the right. Anytime I open an image, boom, it automatically opens on the right monitor. It remembers that the right monitor is where I last had an image document open, so the next one opens there automatically.
In CS4 I can't figure out how to do this. Every document I open shows up on the left monitor and I have to drag it over to the right where I want it. This continues to happen even if I uncheck "Open Documents as Tabs".
I have "Remember Panel Locations" checked, too.
how to change this?
Photoshop :: Dual Monitor

Aug 26, 2008I recently setup a second monitor on one of my pcs, both monitors i have had for a while and both are Dell 19" LCD (the primary monitor is an "ultrasharp" and the second is a standard one)
Both monitors work fine and display as expected... except when using Photoshop. The black in any pallette on the second monitor is displaying as a horrible brown colour but only on the second monitor. If i fill an area in black on the primary and drag the window over to the secondary, while i have the mouse button pressed and dragging, the colour on the second monitor is still black. As soon as i release the mouse it turns into this horrible brown colour. This is also affecting the colour picker dialog.
Unfortunately it's worthless me posting any screen shots of this as the image turns out fine - its just the photoshop interface. Although the black on toolbars and the like are fine, only colour pickers and the actual drawing area are effected.
Its clearly not drivers as the second monitor displays everything else fine. And it's not my Photoshop install because it works fine on the first monitor. - Also if i remove the first monitor - the second one then displays fine again - only seems to be an issue as a dual monitor setup.
I understand that it's all probably as clear as mud - but I just wondered if anyone else had experienced this and/or had a resolution.
Photoshop :: CS5 Mac Dual Monitor Color
Sep 12, 2012Gear: MacBook Pro, Photoshop CS5, Wacom Cintiq 12WX as second display, Mac OS X 10.7.4
Problem: Photoshop seems to only use the Monitor Profile of the main display (i.e. the one with the menu bar in System Preferences>Displays>Arrangement) - some people say yes, this is the case, some people say no, Photoshop uses independent profiles for each display.
Manifestation: If I set my MacBook screen to the main display, color looks good in Photoshop on the MacBook and terrible on the Wacom and vice-versa. However, in Lightroom and other applications changing the main display makes no difference to the output on each display.
Preferred solution: I would like to have my MacBook as my main display with menu bars and dock etc, but then I want the Cintiq to be the display I use in Photoshop, for obvious reasons. In my workflow, I would like to have my image open in 2 windows, one on the Cintiq for retouching and one on the MacBook to check progress and color etc
Curveball: I have a trial of CS6 and the problem seems to be fixed.
Photoshop :: Dual Monitor Question...
Aug 13, 2006After reverting back to one monitor with Photoshop 7.0, I can no longer see pop up menus (for blending options to be specific). The pop up is somewhere, but not where I can get to it. I have to press Enter to get back to where I was working.
I have tried Window-Workspace-Reset pallet but pop ups are still way out supposedly on my non-existant second monitor. I never saved my workspace from the dual monitor times so there is also nothing to delete. Any help would be much appreciated....I have a job to finish.
Photoshop :: Dual Monitor Question
Mar 11, 2009I'm really liking the dual monitor with Photoshop. My question is when I have PS open, I put my pallets on the right monitor and the work files on the left. When I have an image open and click on the maximize tab on the uppper right corner of the image, it expands to both monitors. Is there a setting to where it only maximizes on the left monitor instead of across both monitors?

When I run photoshop WITHOUT the second monitor, it tries to pop up certain windows where the second monitor should be, and I can't get at them. I end up having to kill photoshop and open it again. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there somewhere I can tell photoshop not to try to use the second monitor?

Photoshop :: CS4 - GPU, OpenGL, Radeon, Dual Monitor...
Mar 22, 2009I installed CS4 on my Windows XP system. I immediately updated all the components to the latest versions. When I tried to run CS4, I got repeated error messages about GPU problems. When I tried to open Preferences, CS4 crashed, but only on the General and Performance tabs. I called tech support and they suggested getting the latest drivers for my video card. I did that (for one of my two video cards) and now I can run CS4, but no OpenGL.
Here's my system:
Antec P182 case
PC Power & Cooling S61EPS 610W Power Supply
ASUS P5E motherboard
Intel Q9450 2.66 Ghz CPU
Zalman 9700 CPU cooler
Mushkin 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) RAM
Visiontek Radeon HD3850 512M video card (primary) PCIe
Sapphire Radeon 9250 256M video card (secondary) PCI
HP LP2065 monitors (2)
Western Digital WD6400AAKS 640GB hard drives (3)
Samsung SH-S223F DVD burner
Windows XP Home
I was able to update the video driver for the Radeon 3850 card, but there is nothing new for the Radeon 9250 card. With the newer Radeon 3850 driver, I can now run CS4, but in Preferences > Performance, the GPU setting is now grayed out for Enable OpenGL Drawing and it says "No GPU options available with Photoshop Standard."
When I remove the Radeon 9250 card and just use the Radeon 3850 card, the Enable OpenGL option is there and CS4 runs with it enabled. I conclude from this that the Radeon 9250 card and its driver don't support what CS4 needs, but the Radeon 3850 card and driver do.
I use two video cards because I use Colorvision Spyder3 Elite to calibrate and profile my two monitors, and it is my understanding that I need two cards to separately profile each monitor.
Questions:
1) What features in CS4 am I missing by running it with OpenGL Drawing disabled? CS4 seems to work similarly to CS3 when I edit an image, so maybe I don't need OpenGL... just wondering what OpenGL would give me.
2) Can someone recommend a video card that will run CS4 with OpenGL ... AND ... that will allow dual monitors to each be profiled separately? Or, perhaps I can simply replace the Radeon 9250 PCI card with a newer card that supports OpenGL. Suggestions?
3) I do not have the latest BIOS for my motherboard. Would updating the BIOS help with the OpenGL issue, or is this just a video card/driver issue? My system runs perfectly so I hesitate to update the BIOS -- if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

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.
