Wacom Intuos PTK 640 and pen will not move Lightroom sliders. I can tap the slider but can't slide it. Windows 10 and lightroom are all up to date. Uninstalled and reinstalled my Wacom and no luck. Any other thoughts? BTW Windows Ink, disabled or enabled..no difference.

    Just checked Lightroom Preferences and changed to allow Graphics Processor and all is good again.

    For me worked going into Windows settings for "Pen & Windows Ink" and checking box "Let me use my pen as a mouse in some desktop apps".

      my fix was as follows-

      In the wacom tablet pen setup, under the mapping tab, uncheck "use windows link"

      All is good now.

        Fabulous! As a Wacom newbee, this was bugging me when I was working in Lightroom. Thanks for the solution.

          This has to be my answer because this is my exact issue but I'm not finding anything in preferences to "allow graphics processor"

          Using lightroom cc in windows 10 please help.

          Thank you

          The solution suggested above is not working for me, Sliders are very hard to move, when I use my mouse it works fine, with the pen, not so much, very frustrating
