wacom tablet usability issue - accidently rotating canvas.

[HannahRage]

If the buttons you're pressing aren't actually doing what they're supposed to, then something may be messed up in the Wacom preferences.

Check the following things:

1. That the shortcut works as intended using a keyboard (if it doesn't, then it's nothing to do with your tablet)
2. That the button is set to the correct key in the Wacom Properties panel.
3. That there is no odd custom profile for ArtRage in the Wacom Properties that might be changing things


If you can't find an obvious issue, try:

1. Changing the shortcut to a different one to see if that works (maybe there's an issue with a very specific key)
2. Deleting/clearing any custom Wacom preferences and starting fresh (often this can get corrupted)

And if you're still stuck, come back and let us know (here or via [email protected]) what your set up is currently using (shortcuts, OS, that sort of thing) and we'll keep troubleshooting. It might just be a wonky tablet driver issue.

Hello jman0war,
As promised you can find screenshots of my settings in the Tip & Tricks area here: https://forums.artrage.com/showthrea...177#post518177

I realised over the weekend why you were getting odd tools activating.
You said that for the pen button you had type Shift in the Keystroke entry field.
So when you pressed the button later, what this will have done is to send 5 successive commands to AR, one for each letter. Any tool or feature in AR using those letters as shortcut keys will have been activated in turn!

Ha, it's always something simple. Good catch, markw!
