What version of MyPaint are you using please? Also, what version of the Wacom drivers (you can find it in the about box in the driver's configuration tool)? |
(If you can, please report the full version from the MyPaint about box - it's longer, and more informative. Thanks!) |
If i understood you right, in mypaint eraser on tablet don't use eraser mode. It uses brushes, you need to choose your favourite eraser from brush list. And eraser mode binded to keyboard. I don't remember, mypaint have default eraser brush for erasers on pen or not? If not, maybe mypaint must set default eraser brush to eraser on pen, however i don't know is it possible. |
@zb13y If the (software)device's name contains the pattern Line 373 in 5cc2da4
The "eraser end" of a (physical)pen should normally present as a different (software)device from its "normal end". I know this works on both Windows and Linux, with correctly configured proprietary drivers / up-to-date kernel and open source Xorg drivers. It doesn't work entirely reliably for every (physical)device on the market, because not every (physical)device's firmware provides a useful name, and also because GDK often gets its guess wrong. There are a lot of different tablet devices out there! (Wacom tablets should be fairly well-named and well-known though.) @pieero are you able to open a brush group in the sidebar, and then pick an eraser-brush with it? That should persist after you close the program. |
My Paint : 1.2.0-beta.1+gitexport.a7012b4 I've been to the diagnosis panel of wacom control panel, and get the same result about button association, I mean both tip and eraser are shown as button 1. I don't know how photoshop or gimp make the difference. Gimp has detected two input devices : Wacom Tablet Eraser, and Wacom Tablet Pressure Stylus |
MyPaint allows you to have different brushes for different device identities. Please try this:

@achadwick Still I manage to lose the association, when I switch from tip to eraser again and again. Anyway this bug is invalid, |
No problem, really. We should probably make a FAQ entry about it at least, and document the feature! Flagging as needing docs writing.
Anyone can edit either ☺ |
Made a comment in #484 that the pattern matching for The Surface 3/Pro 4 Wintab drivers show up as an "Eraser" instead of an "eraser" like my Thinkpad Helix does. |
MyPaint v1.2.1 is now out, and the Windows build contains several fixes for tablet recognition. It also contains a bundled GTK3-Demo program, configured to open on the tablet tester page. Can you get me the name of your devices/pen ends as GTK sees them? |
The pen eraser is not switching the application to eraser mode.
I saw in shortcut editor, that tip and eraser are both seen as button 1.
eraser is working fine in Wacom control panel, GIMP and photoshop.
How can I help trouble shooting this ?
I'm using a Wacom graphire 2 usb on Windows 7
