Ernest Burden III Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003 Do any of you have a Wacom Intuos2 attached to an XP box using Photoshop 7 -- and does it work properly? PS reads the tablet data just fine in term of cursor movement, but not the pressure data. It had work flawlessly on my other computer with the same version of PS but W2K. I had DL'ed the newest driver and it worked with pressure the first time, but never again. Uninstall the driver, re-install, same, no pressure. I have tried setting up PS as a targetted app in the Wacom control panel, and tried it in generic mode, too. Any ideas? Does yours work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nisus Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003 Hi Ernest, I use an intuos2 with ps7 on XP without any problem at all. - Did you use a pressure sensitive brush? - Have you configured the wacom accordingly? - Do you use pen mode? - Do you switch between other programs while using it? (In my case, when working in ps and starting another application at the same time, causes an full pressure brush. Change back and forth to ps and it's fine again) rgds nisus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernest Burden III Posted June 9, 2003 Author Share Posted June 9, 2003 I would have to say yes to all--all I did was move a working Intuos from one computer to my new one. And as I mentioned, it did work ONCE. Anyway, you answered my basic question which is that it SHOULD work. If I know it's possible, I can try to find a solution.

nisus Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003 Maybe try to deinstall all drivers, disconnect and let XP find the new hardware by itself? (but you've probably did this before...) nisus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kid Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003 I have an Intuos 2 on Win2K Pro and have the same problem to some extent. I had no problem with Photoshop 5.5 then I upgraded to Photoshop 7 and it very rarely recognises pressure sensitivity. I usually have to launch photoshop 4 or 5 times testing it each time until it launches recognising sensitivity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nisus Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003 really? You should post/mail this to wacom. I've met a few guys from wacom and imho they are very helping rgds nisus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernest Burden III Posted June 20, 2003 Author Share Posted June 20, 2003 I talked to Wacom techsupport. They had me delete the tablet prefs, then Photoshop prefs (no fun resetting these), still no pressure data. The last option was to re-install Photoshop. This seems to be working. But now I have to go find the serial numbers for my plug-ins. But so far...pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
