Wacom tablet invokes right click instead of drawing

Using Wacom tablet on Windows is easy. Just plug in the tablet and draw. It works, but sometimes stylus changes its behavior.

Problems:

  • You want to draw a line, but stylus waits for 1-2 seconds and then it starts drawing.
  • You want to drag item, but mouse pointer does not move on the computer. Computer displays just wheel and then it displays context menu right click.

That’s quite annoying.

This behavior could be disabled. Press Windows Start, search for Pen and Touch application.

windows-pen-and-touch

Change behavior of “Press and hold”. Uncheck option “Enable press and hold for right-clicking”

windows-pen-disable

That’s it :)
