Problems with external drawing tablet and tattooing

Question

Hi, this might be a bit of a niche issue, but I am curious if people have a solution nonetheless. I am an artist, and I use a huion drawing tablet that plugs into my computer through a USB port. When Businesses and Hobbies came out with the custom tattoo option, I was (and am) super excited about using that tablet to design some really cool tattoos. However... every time I put my stylus to the tablet to start drawing, the CAS camera starts spinning at top speed!

What's even more frustrating is that it let me draw with my tablet, once. And now it won't work. I don't know if this is the Sims or my tablet, though everything seems to be in working order on that end. Please share your thoughts and ideas!

Update: The same thing happens when I try to use my tablet and stylus with terrain paint. The camera just spins

I have the same issue! I have been searching to see if anyone else has posted about it or come up with a solution. My tablet is a Wacom Bamboo, though.&nbsp;I am playing on Windows.&nbsp;

I am updating to add that I may have figured it out! I was poking around on my PC on my tablet preferences. I noticed that there was a toggle option for "Tracking": Pen Mode, Mouse Mode. I switched from Pen Mode to Mouse Mode and the spinning has stopped.

Of course, I've been struggling with this for weeks and only after I posted on the forums do I think to try ONE MORE THING. 😁 But it seems to have resolved it. Good luck to the other tablet users out there.

Laceanddoodles Good luck, I hope something similar will fix it for you!
