[Bug 790130] Re: no pressure sensitivity with wacom tablet in inkscape

The 'sudo apt-get remove overlay-scrollbar' workaround works (except
pointer-stroke dislocation) in Ubuntu 16.04 but I can't set mapping to
'Screen', only 'Window' works. I mean I can set it to 'Screen' but it is
not effective. When I close the settings window with 'Screen' selected
and reopen, the mapping is set to 'Off'. Only 'Window' stays on. This
looks like Inkscape is reading cursor position using Screen mapping but
Stylus position using Window mapping -- thus the dislocation. Hope that
helps.

  no pressure sensitivity with wacom tablet in inkscape

Status in inkscape package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: inkscape

  I am using inkscape 0.48 with a wacom pen & touch (CTH-460/k)

  I have been using this combination before and everything was working
  fine, but - probably - since the upgrade to natty pressure sensitivity
  does not work any more, whereas it is working fine, e.g. in the gimp.

  I have double- and triple-checked the settings. The tablet is
  recognised and everything is enabled and set to "screen". Yet, no joy.

  
  I'd like to work with this again, as this is a productive envrionment...
