Flash brush problems with Wacom

[CraveintheBox]

Hi

I am experiencing a weird problem in Flash CC 2014 (I also tested this in older versions of Flash and on another machine - and the same problem seems to appear).

Sometimes, when I am sketching (or writing) using Brush Tool (with "Use Pressure" enabled), some strokes won't get drawn. It's a bit hard to explain, but sometimes, when I begin drawing a stroke, that does not appear - and my pen is still touching the surface of the tablet - then, no matter how hard I press on the screen - while still "drawing" - nothing appears. It seems like something in Flash negates some of these brush strokes (prevents them from appearing) and it could be because Flash isn't done smoothing a previous stroke/line.

When I am deliberately trying to trigger this problem (brush strokes not appearing) by drawing different shapes in a somewhat frequent tempo, the problem is usually not there. But when I relax and start sketching/writing, as if I would on a paper, the problem is most likely to appear. When I am sketching/writing quickly, the problem is also most likely to appear.

When I am using Sketch Book Pro, there is no problem. When I am using Photoshop CC 2014 the brush strokes seem to lag / appear late. I think it has something to do with drivers, settings, new Flash engine, dual GPUs or a bug.

Before I begin writing all of my specs and settings, I want to hear, if anyone else is having this problem.

(Short version of my specs; Tablet; Cintiq 21UX, Driver: WacomTablet_6.3.9w5, OS: Win7-64bit, Laptop with Nvidia and Intel GPUs)

Any help is appreciated

have you tried cs6 and lower versions? because cc brush is new way! you need to be patient, slow and releaxed! try it!
I am not a patient person! so going back to cs6!

UPDATE:

It looks like it happens when I accidentally double-click with my pen, while drawing lines. When "Use Pressure" of Brush Tool is enabled, you can't even see the failed lines, but when I turn it off, the failed lines end up as being dots on the screen. The problem is happening in several versions of Flash and it is happening whether I use a pen or a mouse. Let's say, that I double-click (in the work area), and immediately after that, I start moving the mouse (or pen). The only thing that gets drawn is a dot (and not a line). But if I single-click and move my cursor, the line is drawn fine.

Can someone please verify/test this?

Bump. I suspect, that this problem is caused by my dual-GPU-laptop (laptop with both Nvidia and Intel graphic cards).

If someone had this problem and fixed it, please let me know. This problem is preventing me from doing anything. I can't work when my brush strokes / lines randomly disapearing. This is so discouraging.

I've had this issue too. Did you ever find a solution to it?
