Hello, I have been reading forums and documentation for the past few days, to no avail.

I have a Wacom Intuos PT S CTH-490 tablet, which worked fine on Windows 7 with two monitors.

Now I am on a new machine with Windows 10 and the same tablet.

Here is the issue :
Using Wintab, I have pressure, but my pointer jumps if I get close to the canvas border when not drawing. (while drawing I can go all the way to the border).
Other than it being very annoying, Clone tool can not function properly, because it does not pick where I want, and then jumps all over the place when I try to use it.

After trying many solutions offered here and there, I found that I can solve this issue by switching to "Windows 8+ pointer input". However, when I do that, I lose pressure, it is like using a regular mouse.

Once, in all my attempts to correct this, I managed to make it all work, briefly, by switching from Win8 pointer input to Wintab, without restarting.
It worked perfectly, until I restarted Krita.

I have started Krita with the mouse and pressed shift while taking my stylus near the tablet, and try various settings, which did not work.

The only way I can make Krita work as expected is by disabling one of my monitors, which is not convenient.

An idea, anyone ? Please ?

I have found a sort of workaround just now, but it is not perfect : When I press TAB to hide the ui, it all works fine... So I guess I can press TAB again to access the brushes and tools, back and forth.
Not very convenient.

Have you tried to
use the “Wacom Tablet Preference File Utility” to clear all the preferences. This should allow Krita to detect the correct settings automatically.

Warning

This will reset your tablets configuration, thus you will need to recalibrate/reconfigure it.

Thank you mvowada, I had tried that too, no luck.
What I have not tried yet is installing an older version of Krita and/or Wacom driver.
