Graphic tablet wacom doesnt work

[Michaël BODAR]

Graphic Tablet Wacom Intuos doesn't seem to work with inkscape.

The tablem works perfectly with other softwares (photoshop Elements 6.0, Corel Paiter 4.0, and so on) but not with Inkscape.

I'm working with Windows Vista Basic Family Edition and with the latest found version of Inkscape (i.e. version 0.46).

Thank's for troubleshooting solution.

King Regards,

This is probably bug 168646 again.

Thomas Bleeker's explanation of how to fix it by patching libgdk-win32-2.0-0.dll with a hex editor is here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=496958#c24

Or use can just get the patched version here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/178823/comments/3

Or you can use the latest official GDK DLL, which incorporates Thomas Bleeker's fix. See the explanation here: http://www.inkscapeforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=1091&p=5346 (The title of this is a bit misleading, as it should work for all Wacom tablets, not just Bamboos. However, nobody has yet told us whether it works at all - so if you do try it, please post there and tell us.)

Or use a recent development snapshot - Wacom support should work with these (but other things may be broken if you pick a bad day): http://inkscape.modevia.com/win32/?C=M;O=D
