Question

Illustrator Press and Hold Right Click Issue

Currently I'm using a Huion graphic tablet. Everything works fine outside Illustrator, including Photoshop.

In Illustrator, once I enable "Support TabletPC" in the driver section for pen sensitivity, holding down the pen causes the circle to appear as well as the right click menu once I let go.

I have disabled "Press and Hold" in the control panel and I don't have this issue anywhere else except Illustrator.

I'm not sure if there's a setting inside Illustrator that I need to change in order for it to work.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

As well Monika has already said, the problem may be caused by the driver, try checking and reinstalling the latest driver Download - Huion

Huion has always had a problem with drivers.

Funnily enough, the most current drivers actually cause even more problems (including this one). The pen has times where it'll just let go even when its pressed down.

I have tried literally every version from 8-12 and all of them have this specific issue.

I will check again, as v8 drivers aren't loading up well (since they're from like 2013). Hope v8 can somehow fix my problems.

Try and install a Wacom driver on top of the regular driver and see if that works. You might need to try a little, which driver works best. And of course this is a hack that might not work at all. During the past years it has worked with Huion tablets.

Please: whatever the outcome is, post it here and tell us which tablet model exactly you have and which driver exactly helped or if it didn't help at all. This in turn will help others with the same issue. Thank you.

I currently have a Huion H690, which is essentially a larger and better version of the H420 (they both use the same drivers and everything).

I have tried using the drivers on Wacom, and they haven't fixed the issue. Tablet still works though, so drivers don't conflict.

Would this be a driver issue if this only happens in Illustrator? Seems like Illustrator just responds to touches differently. Photoshop does fine.

I'll go looking around for different drivers from Wacom.

Thanks for the help!

Illustrator just behaves best with Wacom tablets.
