Hi everyone!I’m new to the XP-Pen Community and recently got my Deco 640, absolutely loving the build quality and drawing feel so far! I’ve used it for sketching, shading, and lettering, but I’m still trying to dial in the ideal configuration.I’d love to hear from experienced users about your best settings for pressure sensitivity, shortcuts, and general workflow in apps like Clip Studio Paint or Krita. Also curious if anyone has advice around oem solutions that helped you optimize performance or fix driver quirks, especially related to responsiveness or smoothing.For those who’ve used other models before, like Deco Pro or Artist series, how does the Deco 640 compare in everyday use? Any tips on customizing the ExpressKeys or adjusting driver settings without conflicts would be awesome.Thanks in advance, looking forward to swapping tips and tricks with you all!

Quick thoughts 🍻.R!

I got an Artist 13.3 Pro for Xmas for my daughter, this is her (and my) first tablet; but I am an IT pro and am used to dealing with multiple screen setups, so this is wonky. I've Googled and have seen some ideas, but nothing specific or that has helped, thought I would ask here.For some reason the display is not filling the tablet's entire screen, there is a half-inch black border around the way around entire the displayed content. I currently have the tablet set as monitor 2 in Extend mode, with scaling at 100%; but was getting the same result in Duplicate mode too. You can see what I mean in the photo, it's hard to see in all the black so I drew red circles at the screen corners and lines where the screen edges are...there's a lot of screen space that isn't being used by the display for some reason. Any ideas on how to fix? Other potentially pertinent info: Windows 11 gaming laptop with an Nvidia RTX 3050 onboard, and it's an Artist 13.3 Pro v1 with the split USB cable (two USB and one HDMI) not a v2. Windows is fully updated and I'm using the latest xp-pen driver (from October 2025 I believe).

I am currently working on a 2D animation for my entry in the 2025 XPPen Christmas Drawing Contest; however, it appears that the upload page does not support the .mp4 format. Any solution?

I just got an Artist Pro 16 2.5k, and for the most part, it works nicely. BUT... the point where the pen draws is a little bit down and to the right of the pen tip, hidden where I can't see it unless I hold the pen at an extremely unnatural backwards tilt and look from the side. If I do that contortion, I can readily join new fine lines to existing ones. If I hold the pen normally I have to guess where to put the pen. Should be no problem, just use the pen position calibration procedure.... but apparently this feature that used to exist in the xppentablet "driver" UI is no longer there. (The "Calibration" button has been replaced by the Floating Menu button, it seems.)So what is the current way to solve this pen position problem?
