Mine doesn't have the layer editor, as I just got it, and I haven't any idea where to add a layer. Any tips?

I used my new tablet on firealpaca but now when i try to draw with my mouse it wont let me? Ive changed from tablet coordinate to mouse coordinate but still nothing??

I have a similar problem too. It first works okay with both my mouse and tablet, but after some time of drawing, the mouse doesn't draw all of a sudden, while the tablet still draws just fine. I'll have to close and open FireAlpaca for it to work for both tablet and mouse again before the mouse goes down again, and the cycle repeats.

This comment is for everyone experiencing "Ink Lag" in Medibang and FireAlpaca!Β (Windows 10)
Problem: When using a stylus, any brush or tool delays causing lines to start away from the starting point.
Fix: In "Pen & Windows Ink" Settings, check "Let me use my pen as a mouse in some desktop apps"
Simple fix and stunned me when I found out.Β This is not an issue with the paint software.

I have 2Β problems on firealpaca.Β
1. Whenever i draw a line it doesn't start from where I placed my pen but a bit further away so I have to predict where it will start.
2.Β The moment I start drawing,Β Firealpaca creates a smallΒ dots onΒ the line I draw and it takes a few seconds for it to go away. Nvm second one is solved.
Does anyone know how to solve this? It was fine before but suddenly these two problems came and it's really pissing me off.

Bitslayn In reply to Solkaii [2018-11-28 15:16:31 +0000 UTC]
1 In Windows Settings, search "Pen & Windows Ink" and check "Let me use my pen as a mouse in some desktop apps"
2 The dots on the line are caused by the screen refresh.Β It's just the cursor not updating when you draw fast.
Hope that fixes everything for you.

Please help! When I try to make a line, it lags for a bit before actually drawing the line. It's extremely annoying whenever I try and sketch. I have a huion model H420

walnutthe1 In reply to tyuiop2799 [2019-01-31 22:37:46 +0000 UTC]
could be the fact you use a huion

You might have correction too high?? I use 10 and i doesn't lag, or your pen is out of battery.

I get the same thing sometimes, you just have to wait a bit, or replace the nib in your pen.

Recently I installed my Wacom Intuos draw tablet and after drawing for a while, I found I couldn't draw with my mouse. When I draw with my tablet, it draws just fine, but when I switch to my mouse, it won't draw. I double checked everything you showed in your picture and everything seemed fine. I tried unplugging my tablet from my computer as well as unplugging my mouse but nothing seems to work.Β

My sister and I just got FireAlpaca on our Macbook Pro to make channel art for our YT channel. When I opened it up, I pressed File-New- and set up a document/image. However, now the screen is a blank dark grey with only one pixel of the background colour, located in the centre of the screen, and I can't draw. I've tried many different setting changes, and tried adding layers, but it does nothing. Please help!
