XP-Pen pen or tablet or both of them won’t turn on for some users when attempting to draw using the XP-Pen pen or tablet. Some of you then proposed a question “why is my XP Pen stylus not working?”.Įspecially, XP-Pen pen pressure not working in Photoshopor XP-PEN pen not detecting the tablet occurs to the computer suddenly. You may even notice an error of the XP Pen pen not detecting the tablet. When you were trying to use XP-Pen graphics drawing tablet tablet with a Stylus pen on a computer, you found that the XP Pen tablet was not detected, or sometimes, your XP-Pen pen cursor wasn’t moving at all. The tablet i am using is an xp-pen artist display 13.3 pro, if that helps.Your XP-Pen seemed to work well although it crashed from time to time. What is going on and is there a way to have both at the same time? If i go into the input device options and set the tablet back to 'disabled', i can use the shortcut buttons on the side of the tablet, but i lose the pressure sensitivity again. but as soon as i bring the tip of the pen close to the screen of the tablet, it switches over to tablet input and loads a different set of tool settings, and for whatever reason, the shortcut buttons on the tablet stop working.

What happens is that, with the tablet plugged in, i can move the mouse around and select the tool options and whatever i care to do, and while using the mouse, the buttons and scroll features on the side of the tablet work fine. apparently what is happening is that gimp registers the mouse and the tablet inputs differently, so that one could use the mouse for one tool, and the tablet for another.

However, when i did that, it also disabled the hotkeys on the tablet. when i did this, the pressure sensitivity started working. i looked around and found that i needed to set the tablet to 'screen' mode under 'input devices'.

I started gimp and got the hotkeys on the tablet all set up, but found that pressure sensitivity wasn't working. it has hotkeys on the side that can be programmed to do various things through the tablet software.

I got a drawing tablet and hooked it up to my computer.
