#drawingtablet

Spent some time working with Weylus to connect my iPad to my Linux laptop to act as a drawing tablet. It works really well!

I do need better wifi though - screen updates on the tablet in Krita or Inkscape or whatever are fairly laggy - usable but laggy. I know my wifi maxes out at around 14 Mbps in that room (thick stone walls, down the hall) so work to do re: an AP if I want to do artwork in that room. It's where the TV is located so absent minded doodling is a thing...

I'll try it in my office in the other building tomorrow. It should be better with a wifi AP in the same room.

Amazingly, as a non-video drawing tablet there is no real lag though. Maybe using it a bit more will make latency more apparent.

Immensely surprised plugging in my cheap Huion WH1409 drawing tablet into my Plasma 6 DE on openSUSE Tumbleweed and I can just program the buttons on the drawing tablet via System Settings > Drawing Tablet.

I will be trying to dogfood this instead of my mouse for a few weeks to work out the kinks. #Linux #DrawingTablet

I have managed to save and it is finally time to buy a drawing tablet with a screen. I would like to have a medium/big-sized one with a stand to place it inclined on the desk. I usually use the keyboard to do all the commands, so I don't care if the tablet has many or few buttons. But I want one that has many pressure points and that detects the inclination of the pencil so that the sensation is as realistic as possible. What do you recommend?

I recently bought a #Wacom #DrawingTablet for my #Laptop. As with other #Hardware or #Peripherals that has been around for a while, there is no need to download and #drivers for it under #GNU #Linux as it’s detected automatically and everything just works without any fuss. #Programs such as #Xournal++ detect variations in #PenPressure and draws lines of varying thickness depending upon it. It’s taking practice but the results are quite precise in terms of position too.

@KatM @selzero well, #Adobe at least has some competition at hand (unlike say #Autodesk!), but in the end, regardless if #AffinityDesigner, #Photoshop, #ClipStudioPaint, #CorelDraw or #Krita - like with a #wacom drawing screen or #iPadPro - these are mere Tools to #GetShitDone...

In the end, it's about setting up a workflow and providing the correct tools for the end user to do so.

Even if that means basically buying half a dozen keyboards and then use a custom dongle to remap all the keypresses to allow a shitton of macros to be mapped on said keys...

It's what I did in terms of #SystemsIntegration and what takes quite a lot of time to get done...

  • So yeah, #wacom owns the #DrawingTablet & #DrawingScreen market because everyone else isn't even halfassing copies to the point of forcing wacom to even consider price cuts at all...
