Tested on my Linux machine, and it works fine. Must be a Windows specific issue.

Hi! I've a Wacom pen, but it will be really hard to get a tablet to test this. If I prepare several special version (to log messages/events/behavior), would you like to be the beta tester?

Sure I'd be happy to, but I don't have a Windows machine at home (my "main machine" is Linux, first post was a typo). I wont have a chance to look at it for a couple of weeks, I think.

An update: I'll be able to test a build next week if you want me to.

I would be happy to help as well. I have a Windows machine + Wacom tablet at home.

I'm really interesting to test this feature, any builds are downloadable ?

Fixed.

Status: Fixed

Has this bug reappeared, because I'm running into something very similar on 1.13 and beta7.

@sam-baker what operating system are you running? windows? macos? what specific OS version? I don't have other reports about this on 1.1.13 or beta7

Windows 10 with Wacom Bamboo tablet.

There is a momentary pause when the stylus touches the tablet. The length of the pause seems to be related to the distance the stylus travels, rather than the time spent pressed down. It appears to act the same at close magnification as far, except that it's more noticeable when zoomed out because that pause covers more real estate on the screen. I'm including a gif of the behavior http://i.imgur.com/fM21zcC.gif I tried to keep the motion fluid so you could see when it freezes.

I've had this problem with Bamboo and Cintiq tablets before with other graphics programs, and found it to be a problem with Wacom's settings.

At the time, I found a solution with the same instructions as this issue report, although this is not the exact solution I used (it was a long while ago, so..).

Anyway, you might give this a try if you haven't done something like it already.

Hope that helps!

@oceanhahn Thanks. Those settings were already set, though. I've also check the behavior in few other graphics programs like photoshop, and it only happens in aseprite.

@sam-baker some time ago people had issues with Wacom tablets, but they were related to the "old backend", some possible solutions are in the FAQ: https://www.aseprite.org/faq/#i-have-a-lag-using-my-pen-is-there-any-solution

Anyway, are you using the regular Aseprite.exe right? or the Aseprite-old-backend.exe? The new backend (Aseprite.exe) tries to load wintab32.dll from your system, which is a dll used to get events directly from the Wacom tablet (which should avoid this delay that you're experiencing).

@dacap That was it. Thanks. Option in the Wacom properties called Use Windows Ink in the mapping properties.
