Hello! I just got my new Wacom one and wanted to test it out in Gimp but ran into the problem that pressure sensitivity (of the pen) is not working. I ran into similar problems before with my last tablet so I tried out a few things:
- connect the tablet before opening Gimp
- check that I was using pressure opacity or a pressure-sensitive setting when using pen or brush
- go to the setting where you can check that gimp recognizes the tablet and put the tablet as "screen" and save.
I also checked whether the problem may be the tablet by downloading a random drawing program and testing it out. There the pressure from the pen works.
I also downloaded the newer 2.10.2 version of Gimp thinking that maybe the older version is not compatible.
If anyone got an idea what I might have to do to make this work I'd love some ideas, I enjoy the new tablet a lot and would love to be able to paint and draw. Please be aware I'm not very knowledgable about the technical sides of Gimp
Thanks in advance!
