The title basically sums it up. I have an XP-Pen Artist 15.6 and I use Windows 10 and Krita 4.2. I recently started using Krita and I've been breaking it in. I absolutely love it, but there are a few things that get in the way of my workflow. The main one bugging me right now is this thing with the stylus buttons. In my other art programs I have the bottom button on my stylus mapped to the space bar, so when I hold it down it activates the pan mode and then I can pan by moving the stylus on the screen. In Krita, this works normally when I just use the space bar and pan with my mouse or tablet, but when I hold the stylus button down it doesn't work. The cursor turns into a hand, like it's going into pan mode, but when I touch the stylus to the screen it switches back to whatever tool I was on previously. I assume this is an issue with Krita cause this doesn't happen with my other programs. I've tried using a different key combination, and I've tried disabling windows ink, but I'm still having this problem. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Hi, is it the same if when you press the stylus buton, you don't touch the screen with the stylus (i mean if you use the pen "over" the screen without contact) ?

It does work if I don't press the stylus to the screen. I can hold down the button if it's mapped to say the middle mouse button, which works okay as a workaround but isn't ideal.

ok, you can pan canvas with middle mouse clic in Krita, maybe you can try to affect this event to your stylus button instead of "space" if you just use it to pan canvas...
