Strange behaviour with Wacom Tablet: L5 randomly flips to another tab

Hi ...

Not sure if this is a Wacom or an L5 issue, but I wonder if anyone else has encountered it. I'm running Win7x64 and the latest L5.1 beta.

I've noticed sometimes when working in a resource e.g. highlighting text etc with the Wacom that L5 sometimes flips to another tab in the same group, as if I've pressed <Ctrl>+<F6> or <Ctrl>+<Tab>, but I haven't.

Not sure if my Wacom Bamboo is getting old, or is faulty in some way, but I can't track down the cause, but its a real pain when I'm trying to work in a text, to have to keep flipping back to the correct tab.

Has anyone else come across this\found the cause or the cure?

Thanks
Richard

    Hey Richard,

    I don't have a Wacom Bamboo, but I've used my Wacom Intuos with Logos a little bit and it behaves beautifully from what I can tell. I tried it again just now to be sure. I was not able to replicate the behavior you're seeing. Have you checked the settings, programmable button settings? I'm not as familiar with the Bamboo setup.

    Hi Shayne

    It's only recently I've noticed this happening - I've used this setup for quite a while without any issues, so I'm beginning to wonder if it's a hardware or driver issue maybe. Every so often the Wacom driver just bombs unexpectedly in Win7, for example. Will take a look at the settings but they haven't changed since installation.

    Cheers
