In the past i had trouble to get the M708 Ugee tablet to work on krita but now it works and not just as a mouse, Problem is and i dont know if this is a bug on krita or a compatibility bug but i can only use the upper right part of krita to draw. like 3/4 of the screen down and 3/4 to the side. I dont know if i cant fix this in settings or whatever but it is annoying since in Photoshop i can use the full screen. Please fix this apparent bug

This kind of problem is always either a driver problem or a problem with the driver settings. Yes, even if another application doesn't show the problem; tablet drivers keep per-application data and are often only tested with a few applications, instead of being programmed to conform to the api specification. Update your driver, or downgrade the driver, reset the settings.

That's a known issue with some versions of the Ugee driver, too, I'm afraid.

Well that sucks, anyway krita could compensate for it in a future update since Ugee is the tablet solution for people with a thin budget as is krita for drawing software

We cannot work around all driver bugs... Especially when they change all the time. And Ugee is, after Genius and Trust, the worst with drivers. Huion is rather better, and not much more expensive.

We also sadly can't because we cannot figure out automatically how to prevent the connected lines thing. It's an issue of ugee's driver just not telling us when you pull the stylus up and without that information, we cannot figure out whether you are drawing really fast or whether it is this bug. Detail work, like eyes, have situations which could be both!
