Dear fellow users,
when I use the freehand function (in Sketch mode), the program zooms in and out from time to time while drawing. It keeps drawing the current line while doing so. For clarification see attached video.

Updating and using the brush-mode of the freehand function helped a lot but it still happens every 5 minutes. I'm using v17.2.4 now. The drawing tablet is a Wacom Intuos Medium.

The tip of the pen is not set to any special functions aside from the normal 'mouse left button click'.

Thanks a lot for every help, I really love your work so far.

The problem is none of us own a Wacom, we can't test this.

So it's not a common problem with drawing tablets in general? Or is the use of drawing tablets so uncommon?

It's not a problem with any tablets we've tested with. We don't test specifically on drawing tablets, since it's not a drawing/sketching app.
