Description of the issue (you can include screenshots): I made this post before and no one responded to it, but also there’s a new issue. So there’s a brush offset like only a couple centimeters from my cursor, sometimes I’ll load Krita and it won’t have an offset. More often than not, the offset is there, though. Now, for whatever reason, when I draw, it makes these weird connected tear-dropped lines. Please help, I have no idea what’s going on with it, as all I did was update Krita to the 4.3…!
Did you fix the tear-drop lines problem by switching between Wintab and Windows Ink?
A simple update to krita should not make any difference to the internal tablet settings of krita. Did the problem happen as soon as you updated to 4.3.0 or some time after that (or before that)?
It may have been a Windows update affecting your tablet settings at the Windows driver side.
It would be a good idea to run your tablet driver setup/control utility to make sure all setting look reasonable and believable.
Your tablet driver setup/control utility may have a calibration facility that could be used to deal with the cursor offset problem If the Advanced Wintab settings don’t help.
The offset did happen after I updated to 4.3.0, though. Everything seems to be fine off Krita, there’s no offset or anything. I’ve checked all the tablet settings I could think of.
I realized that the window does what is shown in the picture whenever there’s an offset. I hadn’t seen it until just now. It looks like the window squished up into itself. No matter how I try to fix it, it won’t fill the entire screen.
Ah yeah, your Krita UI is scaling to 200%. You can disable that under Settings > Configure Krita > General > Window and turn off Enable Hi-DPI support, then restart Krita. You may find the default UI size a bit small for a 15.6 inch tablet, however.
There was some recent enhancement in Qt (the toolkit that Krita is built on) for better fractional interface scaling (like 125% or 150%) on Windows, but I don’t know if Krita is able to take advantage of that yet. One of the developers would know.
You can check that scaling factor in your Windows settings under Display.
