Wacom movink pen offset

Type of device* : pen display
Brand and version of the device: wacom movink
System** : windows 11

* graphics tablet/display tablet/2-in-1 laptop/Android tablet
** Windows/Linux/Mac/Android, + version (you’ll find it in Help -> Show system information for bug reports)


Description of the issue (you can include screenshots):
I’m trying to use the wacom movink in krita but i noticed that on the canvas there is consistent brush offset that is only on the canvas.

After you have made the general setup for your tablet according to the manual, like mapping to the size of your monitor and so on, do the following:

In your Wacom Control Center, that is found in the Windows Start menu, you should create a profile for every app you use, in case you don’t know how ask the Wacom manual or their support for help.


In Krita, in the dialog you get to via ‘‘Settings’’ >> ‘‘Configure Krita’’ >> ‘‘Display’’ >> ‘‘Canvas Acceleration’’, you can change the renderer for your application. If there stands behind “Preferred Render” Auto (Direct3D 11 via ANGLE), then change it to OpenGL, and if there is OpenGL selected, then change it the other way around. Confirm that setting via the OK-Button in the lower right corner of that dialog and restart Krita. And do not forget to restart Krita in case you have to revert this setting!


Another source of issues can be the following (which I initially thought is the issue and wrote the following opera :wink: ):

After you have created the profile for Krita, you have to disable the setting “WindowsInk” in your Wacom Control Center, in most tablets this is found with the pen settings, confirm that setting like required in the manual.

As next open Krita, in Krita via ‘‘Settings’’ >> ‘‘Configure Krita’’ go to the tab ‘‘Tablet Settings’’ and set the radio-button in front of ‘‘WinTab’’, confirm that setting using the OK-Button in the lower right corner of that dialog and restart Krita.

Now it should work.

If it does not work as you want it to work, you can check if the other option, e.g. ‘‘Windows 8+ Pointer Input (Windows Ink)’’, will work with your setup, therefore you have to repeat the above but with enabling ‘‘Windows 8+ Pointer Input (Windows Ink)’’, and do not forget to leaf the dialog in Krita via click on the OK-Button in the lower right corner of that dialog and restart Krita.

In case both settings, the Renderer and the WindowsInk thing, did not do the trick, then please report back and describe briefly but exact what you did so far and where you are stuck.
Furthermore, name the version of Krita you use, we need the exact number, it is shown in the upper right corner of the splash screen when you start Krita.
Also, name from where you got your copy of Krita. Thank you.
