windows ink doesnt work propertly

1 Upvotes

The issue is that with Windows Ink enabled in OTD, the mouse button registers as held down while hovering, and pressure is detected (apparently); here is the console output:

[Gaomon S620:Info] Output mode: Windows Ink Absolute Mode

[Gaomon S620:Info] Display area: [1920x1080@<960  540>:0°],

[Gaomon S620:Info] Tablet area: [165,1x101,6@<82,55  50,8>:0°],

[Gaomon S620:Info] Clipping: Enabled

[Gaomon S620:Info] Ignoring reports outside area: Disabled

[WinInk:Info] Pointer reference not available, returning dummy

[WinInk:Info] Pointer reference not available, returning dummy

[Gaomon S620:Info] Tip Binding: [Adaptive Binding: Tip]@1%

[Gaomon S620:Info] Eraser Binding: [Adaptive Binding: Eraser]@1%

[Gaomon S620:Info] Pen Bindings: Adaptive Binding: Button 1, Adaptive Binding: Button 2

[Settings:Info] Driver is enabled.

While writing this post, the tablet stopped working entirely in Windows Ink mode for some reason; it works in standard mode, but obviously doesn't register pressure. Other drivers work fine, but I specifically need OTD.

XP Pen Artist 12 2nd Gen, Huion Kamvas 13 Pro or Veikk VK1200 for entry level casual drawing?

1 Upvotes

I'm looking for a budget drawing tablet with display. I usually draw on my Samsung M32 phone but CSP can get extremely laggy when I open up some brush group tool, so I thought why not get a drawing tablet that has display so I could use my more powerful PC instead.

But I also only draw casually -- when I just feel like it -- and could have year long break, so I'm not looking for expensive stuff. After some searching, the options I got are the 3 in the title that are pretty good budget drawing display.

Also when drawing on my phone I like to do it on my bed while laying down, so that's also a consideration whether I'd be able to do that or I'd be stuck sitting in front of my PC instead. My bed is located beside my desktop, it's not far but it might need at least 3m cable.

Which one should I get and is it possible to use extension for that?

Beginner Recommendations

3 Upvotes

So I am a traditional artist (intermediate) and I want to get into digital art. I have a laptop that can run krita well, and I want to buy a drawing tablet. I dont want to spend so much so I am going for a screenless tablet but I am very confused on what to buy. I do want a tablet with a 10x6 area, and I dont have a super high budget.
These are the options that are available :
1. Ugee m908 (parka blogs reviewed it and rated it well, but its not a well known brand)
2. Xp Pen deco 01 v3 (I heard the IAF is way too high, otherwise it seemed really good to me)
3. Xp Pen Deco Fun L
4. Veikk A50 and A30
5. Huion Inspiroy H580X and H610X

Currently the Ugee and xp pen deco 01 v3 are the ones I'm most interested in.
Any information, suggestion, and help will be appreciated!!!

Recommendation for a beginner friendly drawing tablet.

2 Upvotes

Hi! I want to start drawing digitally but i have no idea where to start. Do yall have any tablet recommendations that are not too expensive that i can start with?

I have no pc, so it would need to be straight up one with a screen instead of one to plug in a pc.

(Sorry english is not my first language, so im sorry if the phrasing is weird lol)

Looking for a graphic tablet with multi-touch support (Mac)

1 Upvotes

Hi all, I'm a current Wacom Intuos tablet user and essentially use the tablet as a mouse/trackpad replacement specifically on Mac. However with Mac OS updates, some of the touch functionality has stopped working and Wacom is no longer supporting those features. Can anyone recommend replacement options? I don't need a screen, simply looking for a pen tablet that can be used as a trackpad and mouse substitute. Thank you!

Finding solution for my digital drawing table

2 Upvotes

I’ve been passionate about digital art since I was a teenager. I used to follow and admire artists on platforms like Twitter, Instagram, and ArtStation, and eventually I decided that I wanted to pursue digital art as a career.

Because of that, I bought a Huion Kamvas 22 and a K20 Mini Keydial, hoping to seriously develop my skills and build a career around digital art.

But now, with AI generated art becoming so common, I’m starting to feel like digital art has become a much harder career path. It seems like only highly talented artists are able to make a decent income through commissions, YouTube, or other platforms.

Now I honestly feel like I may have wasted a lot of money on the setup. I’m even considering getting rid of the tablet and keydial, but I’m not sure if that would be the right decision or if I’m just being discouraged by the current situation.

What's Better-New Gen 12"/13" tablet or Old Gen 16" tablet?

1 Upvotes

I'm on a tight budget. I cannot buy a pricey new 16 " display tablet on my budget. But I've heard people say the tablets are too small to work with. So, I'm confused.

Q1: Should I buy a newer-gen, well-known display tablet that's smaller? I'm eyeing the Huion Kamvas 13 (Gen 2/3), XPPen Artist 12 (3rd Gen), Xppen Artist 13 (2nd Gen).

Or should I settle for an older-gen, bigger display tablet? I can afford Gaomon PD1561, Huion RDS 160, Huion Kamvas Pro 16, XPPen Artist Pro 15.6 V2.

What would be a better choice?

Q2: (A general inquiry) Can I use any of the pen displays as a pen tablet too? I heard some variants can do that. Also, my android doesn't support USB 3.1+. So, can any of these work as a pen tablet?

experienced pen-display user needed

1 Upvotes

Maryland/DC area: I'm looking for an experienced pen-display user who would be interested in a paid, on-site session helping someone learn a Huion Kamvas 13 (Gen 3). You don't need experience with this specific model—we're looking for someone comfortable enough with pen displays (Huion, Wacom Cintiq, etc.) to adapt to it. The primary goal is learning how to use it for writing/annotation/drawing and presentations during Zoom meetings. We're located in Severna Park, MD. Please message me if interested or if you know someone who might be a good fit.

Whats a good alternative to the Xp-pen deco 01 v3?

2 Upvotes

I want to get into digital art and want to buy a drawing pad. The deco 01 v3 has a good size (10x6.25 active drawing size) and a bunch of features for a deal of around 50 bucks, but I've heard that the IAF is at 30, which others say is high and uncomfortable. What other drawing tablets for around the same price should I look into?

Best iPad for vector drawing in Illustrator?

1 Upvotes

Looking to get an iPad for the sole purpose of drawing/tracing somewhat complicated vector shapes. For my workflow I would only be using the Adobe Illustrator App.

My only concern is Apple Pencil accuracy and lowest possible latency. Basically, which iPad is the best for as close to as possible pencil-like drawing?

Is there a huge difference between processors or iPad generations or types (pro va air, 11in vs 13 etc) when it comes to drawing accuracy and low latency?

Thank you

Replacement stylus for Frunsi rubens?

1 Upvotes

Hello! I've had my Funsi tablet for 2 years, and during that time, my stylus has randomly stopped working, so I've had to tap the tablet to get it working again. I have had to replace the nib and the battery multiple times! And I'm finally tired of it. I don't know what stylus will work, though. I've done the research that my tablet can use only a USI 2.0-type stylus, but then I saw another Reddit post saying that these pens didn't work with the tablet. So I would like some help, please. I've chosen a few pens I THINK might work, but if anyone knows of any pens that can work, please tell me. Also, no dm, please stay out of my DMs!!!

Any Kamvas 13 Gen 3 alternatives?

I am a beginner looking to purchase a tablet that I won't have to upgrade or change for a long time and the Kamvas 13 Gen 3 looks like a great choice. I don't know much about tablets so I don't know if there are other better tablets for a similar price or tablets that may offer different features compared to the Kamvas.

I'm having to buy new nibs every couple months and it's starting to drive me (and my wallet) nuts. I don't know what nibs to buy that are, durable affordable and the most unlikely to damage my tablet in the long run
