Hello,
I am having problems with pen pressure on latest Illustrator and Mojave.
I did check the System Preferences - > Security & Privacy -> Privacy -> Accessibility and Automation options and while it works fine on Photoshop, it doesn't on Illustrator.
My pen tablet is a Wacom Bamboo CTL-470 and Its drivers are up to date.
I've already reinstalled Illustrator. Is this a known issue? What can I try to fix this annoying problem?
Thank you.
I got a mail from this forum regarding Illustrator (CC). I followed their instructions and it works.
First you uninstall Illustrator (CC). Then you uninstall Wacom. After that install Illustrator again and after that the latest Wacom-driver.
It should work.

Hi there,
Sorry to hear about this. Could you please confirm if your Wacom driver version is 6.3.31+. As per Wacom, only these drivers are compatible with Mojave, please check out this link: Wacom Customer Support | Wacom

This is the latest driver available on wacom website, for this tablet (BAMBOO CTL-470)
I can tell you it worked fine with latest Mojave beta, but now it is not with final version. It's strange because it works fine with Photoshop, and that makes me think it's not an OS problem.

If it worked fine with the Mojave beta, but not with the final Mojave version, then maybe you should ask Apple about it, because Illustrator didn't have an update in that period of time ...

the same thing happens to me, it does NOT detect the pressure of the pencil of my NEW Wacom Intuos CTL-6100 tablet!

Have you tried adjusting the pen pressure settings in the Wacom control panel? It may be that they have been reset back to the defaults?

It's not a pen problem. It works fine everywhere (with pressure). Only Illustrator don't recognise it.

Hi Everyone,
Sorry about the delay. I would request you to please uninstall the Wacom driver completely and then reinstall the latest driver. We tried the same thing at our end and we were able to resolve it.
Do share your observations. We are looking forward to your response!

Hi Srishti, I just did what you suggested and it didn't help. Illustrator is still the only software that don't recognise pen pressure after the Wacom diver removal and reinstall. Any other suggestions?

Hi there,
Sorry to hear about this. In Photoshop its a known issue and here is the workaround: Known issues - Running Photoshop CC on macOS 10.14 Mojave
For Illustrator issue after the Mojave update, I would also suggest to Uninstall Illustrator completely using the cleaner tool(Use the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems) and then Reinstall (Learn how to download your Adobe Creative Cloud apps )
and then uninstall the Wacom driver completely and then reinstall the latest driver.

hi, I'm sorry to inform that I updated Illustrator and it isn't working again. I can't keep uninstalling everything and installing again on each update. Any suggestion or fix, please?

I think I've the answer: open system preferences, goto 'security and privacy', Select 'Privacy'. Select 'accessibility'. Allow WacomTouchDriver and Adobe Photoshop to control your computer. Restart your mac and try again to use the wacom.
It works for me.

Hi there,
You are absolutely right. That the first thing to be done as mentioned in the link(Wacom Customer Support | Wacom ) above. It has to be allowed from the accessibility setting.
Thanks for sharing this.

That's right, I did that from the first day for Photoshop and the pencil of my Wacom works at 100, but in Illustrator it does NOT work to do it. -_-
