I recently purchased a new Wacom Intuos 3 tablet and am having problems with the "grip pen" drawing. When I place the pen on the tablet to draw, it freezes in place. If the pen is lifted off the tablet it moves around normally over the workspace. If I hold the lower switch ON (right click function) and then move the pen, it draws a staight line from the start point to the end point - regardless of the overall path I traversed to get to the end point. The pen works normally on the Win XP desktop (I can select and move folder icons, etc around and drop them elsewhere), in the Windows Paint program it draws lines as expected and also draws lines in Adobe Illustrator 8.0. Why is this a problem only in Photoshop CS? I've uninstalled and reinstalled CS - but no change. Anyone have an idea?

Wacom give great support, ime. And they have details
on conflicting drivers and such.

have the latest wacom drivers? ps set up in the wacom control panel?
Dave:
Is that a specific call to photoshop.exe or does a general 'all programs' option cover it?
Ta!
Excellent!
Your wealth and assistance easily outweighs your word count
