Question

Huion tablet moves instead of drawing

I have an issue with my Huion Kamvas 13 tablet where sometimes the move tool activates on its own and I end up moving the canvas when I'm trying to draw. I know there have been many posts with the same issue, but they're all from 2018, and the solution that's given is for Windows while I have a Mac.

 

It's actually not selecting the move tool, rather acts as though I'm holding down command. I have one of my tablet hotkeys set to "B" and when the cursor was acting up and I tried to switch it back to brush via that hotkey, the color balance panel opened. Since the shortcut is "command+B" for that panel, it seems my pen "holds down" command sometimes. I didn't see any other posts that had that realization and I'm wondering if my issue is therefore different. Any solutions for Mac?

It seems the latest updates from Adobe messed up whit tablets. I have a Huion 16 pro and after a while when I try to move my canvas for some reason The software push me to the left, like I try to make 1 step to the right and it forces me to do 3 to the left (near it's exponential), and when I try to use the lasso tool it does a multi-point selection when I only click once... I spend over 3 hours with my computer remote, several installations and they didn't manage to fix it.  Forget it, Adobe product are not made to work with tablet, every new version comes with a new issue regarding tablets and pens.
My tips? Try to get your workflow in Clipstudio paint or Affinity Design/Photo (and they are one-time purchase)
