Pen Tracking

Wed Dec 30, 2015 8:04 pm
I have a Wacom tablet and so far it integrated with Krita pretty well. However, there is something weird going on with its tracking. Let's say I drew a rectangle and trying to fill it with a single quick zig-zagging stroke. In Paint or Gimp it works as expected. In Krita the stroke is sort of compressed todwards the middle of the rectangle and doesn't reach its edges.

This is especially noticeable if I'm trying to write. In other editors the letters looks like my normal handwriting. In Krita everything is distorted in a very particular way. For example, cursive 'e' looks more like cursive 'l' or 'i' without a dot.

It feels like the tracking of the pen is lagging and there is some algorithm that tries to compensate for it by ignoring the finer motions. Is there a way to fix it? I have a pretty powerful computer, so hardware shouldn't be the bottleneck.

Check that you haven't enabled the stabilizer mode.

Indeed, I had weighted smoothing enabled for some reason. I disabled it and tracking became instant and completely proportional. Awesome.

Thank you for the quick reply.
