CS4 And Pen Pressure
When drawing with the brush or the clone stamp brush now and then strokes are drawn at full pressure even though that is not the case. The next strokes are ok again for a while and then again... a few strokes like they there was no pen pressure. Very annoying when retouching masks.
I already installed the latest Wacom driver but no joy.
What else could I try?
My graphics card doesn't have OpenGL capacities so I don't think that's the problem or could it?
Also CS4 is much slower than CS3 in updating the screen. Related?
I am a long time user of Photoshop (since 2.5) but I think CS4 will be the first upgrade
I will skip although I love the new adjustments and masks panels...
Windows XP Pro, 4 Gigs of Ram, Matrox Millenium card, plenty of sratch disk space.

Can't Get Pressure Sensitivity
I am having problems with my brushes in Photoshop CS4. Everything was fine till recently. I use XP on a PC. I am using a wacom tablet and the brush sensitivity is not working in Photoshop CS4. When I go to the brush drop down or the brush palatte, the brushes are not pressure sensitive for opacity or size as they should be. Yet I have pen pressure selected in shape dynamics & other dynamics. I tried in CS3 which I also have installed and it works fine there and I can use the pen pressure. I spoke with wacom and we updated the driver. Adobe said to reinstall CS 4 which I did…and I still have the problem. BTW, there is a gray exclamation mark next to the shape and other dynamics control drop down window. No one seems to know exactly what this means.I assume it isn't the wacom driver or hardware, as it works fine in CS3. It makes sense to me that the problem is with CS4, but I still have it after reinstalling. Any ideas. I have talked to wacom and adobe multiple times and can't get this resolved.

Pressure Sensitivity Not Available In...
I have a Calcomp DrawingBoard lll with pressure sensitive stylus which works fine in other applications like Painter 11 but loses its pressure capabilities in CS4 (both AI and PS). The stylus behaves like a mouse but in shape dynamics the pen pressure settings show a warning sign and in AI they are grayed out. It performed correctly in CS3.

Cs4 Pen Bug?, (pressure Steps)
I'm trying cs4 TRIAL. And I get bad steps (look by the arrows) when LETTING GO of pen pressure. Normal? NOTICE!! Both are drawn at 25%spacing which I want, because the pressure gets easier to control. http://tinyurl.com/6nlqop [img]http://tinyurl.com/6nlqop[/img]

Pen Pressure- With Brush
I've just started using CS4 and the pen pressure when drawing using my wacom tablet seems to be sporadic at best. It doesn't matter what brush size I pick, when I start drawing, however lightly, the brush will frequently, and it appears randomly, just draw a line to its full thickness. It's annoying because it sort of responds to the pen pressure but then will just suddenly stick a big thick line in for no reason. Things I have already tried to fix this: •adjusting the flow % •playing with the pen presure slidey bar in brush menu/ shape dynamics •adjusting the pen sensitivity in the wacom tablet setup. What's really annoying is have been using my tablet with photoshop 5 for years and it's worked perfectly. CS4 seems to be quite buggy though. It crashed today after telling me something about gpu enhancements (?) and zooming using the wacom slider sometimes decides not to work.

Pen Pressure In CS4 Vista 64-bit
Even through all other applications on my PC were able to respond to tablet pen pressure, CS4 running in Vista 64-bit did not. I was able to get the pressure to work when executing the 32-bit photoshop.exe found in C:Program Files (x86)AdobeAdobe Photoshop CS4Photoshop.exe. I'll continue to use the 32-bit program until Adobe solves this in the 64-bit version. It was good of Adobe to automatically install both a 32-bit and a 64-bit version of the program.

Wacom Pressure
I'm using CS2 and a Wacom pressure sensitive graphics tablet that's about ten years old. I've noticed that the pen's pressure sensitivity only works on brushes that have a hardness control slider. I would love to use the smudge tool with certain brushes but I can't because most of the brush shapes don't have pressure sensitivity with the Wacom pen, Is this normal? Is there any way to get all my brushes to have pressure sensitivity with my Wacom pen?

Pen Pressure Not Working
I was using my brush with pen pressure, but now its not working!! I have no clue how that happened either!!I keep trying to apply the pen pressure to the brush tool, but it doesn't show that there is any sensitivity to the brush! :OI don't think its the tablet that is acting up, cause it seems to be working normal.So I have no clue whats wrong with it!! I don't have to change the size jitter tho right? Cause I never had to before.I had put in the control box at the top that I wanted to have pen pressure so that couldn't be the problem either.I tried resetting the menus, and then setting the pallets back to defult,

CS2 Pen Pressure No Longer Working?
My penpressure is no longer functioning at all in PS, but works everywhere else. In the preview, it just shows it at a normal setting, penpressure is the only thing that doesn't work - I can change angle/jitter/opacity and all that jazz. I reaaally don't want to have to uninstall, or move to a different program... (Could adding a large game to an already loaded computer cause some things in PS not to work fully?)

Tablet Pressure - Broken
I have a Wacom Intuos3 A5 Wide, but PS CS4 doesn't recognize nor use it and instead shows a warning next to the pressure sensitive features saying: "Requires a pressure sensitive tablet." I'm running Vista x64 Business and PS CS4 x64. Pressure sensitivity works in PS CS3 and PS CS2. I'm really saddened to say that I find PS CS4 the slowest and most troublesome release yet. I start to regret ordering an upgrade from my beloved CS2 (which had a broken Vista support).

Simulate Pressure Will Not Work
when I try to stroke a path with the pen tool and select simulate pressure it will not work. I was using it last night and it worked just fine, and I can't seem to figure out why it isn't working. It is only when I try to use the brush and simulate pressure that it doesn't work. I can do it with pencil and all that.

CS4 Brushes Not Pressure Sensitive With
Running on Vista Business 32bit, Phenom 9550 Quad Core, 4GB RAM, Nvidia 7600 GT. I just tried my WACOM tablet and the brushes were very slow, missing the start of some strokes and most importantly no pressure sensitivity. I did a little searching and someone suggested switching off OpenGL and this has fixed my problem. Does anyone else have a similar experience ? Also, is my 7600 GT card not powerful enough ? When I moved to CS2 from 7, I had to upgrade my graphics card - which was running just fine with 7.

Brush Pressure Sensitivity Is Not
I'm using a Cintiq 18sx, and its pressure sensitivity is working great in programs such as Flash, but when it comes to photoshop, there is absolutely no brush sensitivity. I have gone into the brush shape dynamics settings and set it to pen pressure, but finds nothing. I'm not exactly sure what to do now. This has been a problem since I began using CS3.

Healing Brush And Pressure
I know that there must be a button staring me in the face but I can't find it. My healing brush is pressure sensitive for size, but I don't want it to be. I've turned all the options off in the brush palette but it makes no difference. I cannot see any option on the option bar for this either. PS8

Pressure Sensitive Brush Width
In Illustrator CS2, is there any way to set the width of a tool to grow when more pressure is applied (talking about for use with a tablet) I know it's under PSCS2 under brushes>shape dynamics>size jitter>control=pen pressure. Is there any equivalent for Illustrator?

I have PS CS2 & CS3, at first, when I used the pen tool in CS2, it would't do the simulate pressure. When I got CS3, at first I was delighted to see that here the simulate pressure DID work! But after just one use, it my joy collapsed, again the simulate pressure does not work!

Erratic Pen Pressure With Wacom Intuos
Very light paint strokes on my Wacom Intuos 3 produce a full force stroke in CS4 every 3 to 15 strokes. Anybody else have this problem? This does not happen with CS2. Also, using the Wacom diagnostics, I can make endless light strokes and never see the pressure go above 16%. I'm using CS4 11.0.1, Wacom driver 6.1.1-3, Nvidia GeForce 6800 with drivers updated, Windows XP.
