Hi Sirati! Have you tested this in Chrome? You would want to disable windows ink since that’s mostly for text fields, though I’m not sure why disabling it didn’t have an effect. I would recommend tinkering around with your tablet settings to see if something might be causing it to not work on Firefox.
@SkritterMichael Do you have any ideas what might be causing this?
I assume that enabling windows ink input does not literally mean only windows ink, but instead windows API for pen input.
I made a video for this was well. This time i did register the input, but did not register when i stopped contacting the graphics tablet with the pen. it works for other webapps
I tested skritters behaviour in Ungoogled Chrome 87.0.4280.67-1: Binaries for Windows 64-bit
In windows ink mode:
chrome appears to interpret the pen as touch input resulting in scrolling, the mouse disappears while this is active. no input visible at all in skritter.
I was able to reproduce the issue in Chrome and will look into it for a fix. In my testing, it did work in Firefox, but I also don’t have your specific brand of tablet, so hopefully a fix for Chrome will also fix your device in Firefox as well.
In the meantime, turning the “Let me use my pen as a mouse in some desktop apps” option on/off in the Windows pen input settings might improve the situation.
I would also recommend to make sure you have the latest version of the driver for your tablet.
It is not released yet, but we’ve got it planned to get a fix released in the next couple of weeks.
In our initial testing, we could only reproduce similar input issues on a Wacom tablet without the drivers installed, and other touch and pen input methods worked as expected on Windows, so while it could be a bias of our device inventory, this does appear to be an edge case limited to some brands of tablets.
