Wacom Intuos/pen windows 10 button click and drag issue

I am having a very annoying issue with the wacom pen on windows 10.

One of my pen buttons is set to pick existing color from the canvas. But every time I click and drag holding the pen button, I experience an initial drag.

So the color is sampled first time which I click on the canvas (holding the button). But when I drag the pen to sample adjacent color it does not pick the new color. Only after significant movement it starts to sample new color as I move the pen.

Hope this was clear. Appreciate any help on this as this becomes very annoying to work with.

Thanks!

Hi there, try this, if it's not working 100% let me know.

Wacom Tablet Properties - Mapping - Untick "Use Windows Ink"

Hi, I was having the same problem in google chrome, I couldn't select any text neither drag a tab out to be a window.

I'm adding this because with older wacoms (I have a Wacom Bamboo CTH-470) the route is a bit different

Wacom preferences/Pen/Tracking/Pen Mode/Mapping

and there disable "Use Windows ink"

If after that you loose the pen pressure in Photoshop, here are the instructions:

One more thing, if you are doing a right click and you get a circle and everything is stuck in your PC cause you can't select a thing, here are the instructions to fix that error:

Sounds like a Windows Ink issue with the Wacom driver. It doesn't like to get along with Windows 10 and Photoshop. A lot of issues in the past few months
