When tablets attack
8 years ago
So, something odd has been happening with my tablet and I'm not sure how I can fix it, maybe someone out there could lend a hand? See, it's been doing this weird jittery thing lately. much more frequently this past week. And by jitter I don't mean "oh crap, I messed up that line" I mean it's like I'm trying to draw on morse code. Dots, dashes, dots lots of dots and dashes. I've looked into solutions but they only seem to work for a short period before it just decides that dots are fine. Sometimes I can force it to work again through some repetitive drawing and it'll work for a while longer, but always ends up being poopy.
Any suggestions would be great, as I'm out of ideas for this darn thing.
Edit: temporary/permanent solution obtained! thanks, dudes. <3

srsly tho, tried the usual checking of the physical connections, drivers, and making sure Windows isn't doing weird shit again?
Also, have you tried opening up the services window and stopping and restarting the Wacom Consumer Service and Wacom Professional Service on there? That usually clears up any issue for me when it shows up, at least for a while. You'll have to close and reopen your drawing program after you do it, though.
And finally just for the sake of being thorough, are you running a lot of videos or doing any ram or cpu heavy things at the same time? Modern photoshop seems to be a ridiculous resource hog compared to earlier iterations and it gets pretty frustrating.
Thanks a lot, man!
I will say that most of my usb slots seem okay so it shouldn't be a problem to switch stuff around. The ones on my case which.. I don't use for anything important on the other hand, 3/4 of them work so it's possible things might be confused in the ol computer. :X
For your last question it hasn't been an issue in the past, though I do tend to do some cookie pruning every few days to keep ahead of it. I was resetting my drawing program a couple times a day just to keep it from happening, but again! I really appreciate the suggestions and the help, guy!
