I am still getting used to using my Wacom Tablet with PhotoShop. The BIGGEST annoyance is when the canvas rotates when every I rest my hand on the tablet while using the stylus. It usually happens while I am using a brush or clone stamp. It drives me INSANE that I cannot simply lock the rotation. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I am not touching any keys, it is happening when I apply pressure with my writing hand.

I'm having the same problem  I have the Wacom Intuos Pro; however my tablet properties do NOT have the checkbox for Enable Touch Input.  I don't know how to stop my canvas from rotating intermittently when I'm using the pen tool.

I have the same issue with the canvas rotation while using the pen tool. This has driven me insane. I waste so much time. I have searched online for an answer. I also do not have the checkbox for Enable Touch Input. I have the Wacom Intuos Pro as well. Has anyone found a solution to this yet?

Currently I have 6.3.42-1. The most current driver for a Mac OS is the one I am using. For a Windows OS is 6.3.42-2. The screen shot that Jeanf posted above is what my screen shows currently as well. Perhaps an updated driver is needed for Mac computers. Is there anything else you can recommend that can be done to fix this? Thank you!

Sorry I can't - I think you will need to contact Wacom and ask for the same checkbox on the Mac

I have an Intuos Pro as well, for me what works is to go to : 

 

Touch Settings / Standard gestures / Rotate

If i tick out the rotate gesture, then it stops rotating when my arm is moving on the tablet. 

 

Hope this helps.

Go to Photoshop -> Preferences -> Tools --> Remove the tick at "Enable gesture"

It works for me
