WACOM problem on mac

Has anyone else noticed that recent versions of the Unity Editor are unresponsive to smaller movements with the wacom as an input device? For example if you drag a value slowly, or move something slowly to adjust the finer positioning it is completely unresponsive.

I thought it was just my old wacom intuos3 but I tried on another mac with a new wacom intuos pro and it exhibits exactly the same problem! (shocked this has not been reported as a major bug!)

Really need to know if other people are experiencing this problem, if so will try and get support to fix this bug.

Does this problem exist on Yosemite? It wasn't a problem on Mountain Lion.

 

I noticed exactly the same thing (in Yosemite), and came upon this thread while Googling for a solution. I'll post a Unity issue about it I guess...

 

Have you tried updating the driver? I have one Wacom Intuos 4 - model: PTK - 440 and it does not do the problem described above. Even with the newest version of Unity it's working perfectly. By the way, I'm still on the Mountain Lion... usually the Mac OS updates will bring some big headaches.

 

I have a macbook pro (2014) on Mavericks, and I am using an intuos 3 - although I also have the same issue when using an intuos5. Horrible lag when manipulating objects in the editor. The wacom drivers are current. It's very frustrating...I have to juggle between the tablet and mouse. Large general movements with the wacom, then fine tuned movements with the mouse. Back and forth....Really poor & slow workflow. I think this phenomenon appeared with unity 4x, as I don't recall this happening when i first started using unity. I had used this setup on Windows 7 and Vista without any issues as well.
One thing i noticed when playing around with wacom settings panel - if you do a custom application setup for unity (which you would probably do anyway to customize how your buttons work), you can set it to run as a mouse instead of pen. This seems to alleviate the responsiveness issue. Unfortunately, this is not a good setup if you are using a second monitor, as you will get crazy cursor acceleration issues and the tablet won't really maintain it's screen mapping. This might be less of an issue if you are only using one display (just a laptop screen, for example). It's worth trying out. At the very least, it might be a clue as to how to implement a proper fix? It's strange that unity seems to treat the tablet input differently than other applications. I have no issues with photoshop, flash, maya, zbrush, etc...
I would be very grateful for a fix, and I'm sure other artists using Unity would be as well.

 

I've posted an issue (http://fogbugz.unity3d.com/default.asp?664552_hlvsuap3v2anf542), and I have the latest available driver. I use my tablet in left handed mode and I've also noticed that switching to Mouse mode fixes the problem.

 

Had the same issue.
I have an intuos 5 pen and touch tablet. OSX Yosemite.
The only way to handle/fix this is installing an old driver. I installed version of the intuos 6.3.8-2.

Awesome!
Thanks SrNull, that seemed to work!

 

SrNull, thank you for this , it's useful .

I just upgraded from xp-pen Star G640 Sketch Tablet a to a wacom intuos pro Drawing Tablet . I was really missing a scroll wheel and now I've got it, as well as 6 customizable shortcut keys.
