As everybody knows that CTL-490 has very noticeable input lag while hovering.
I'm here to help you all fellow 490 users.
The input lag is caused by the bad drivers that CTL-490 has, it has something to do with the pen pressure settings.
What you need:
- Piece of round 1.65 trimmer wire.
- Sanding paper.
How to fix:
- First cut a piece of 1.65mm trimmer wire to the same length as the default pen nib.
- Remove any sharp edges from the wire and make the other tip round like the default nib has using sanding paper.
- Replace the default nib with the one made from the trimmer wire and push it all the way down. (Note that if the trimmer wire is too short it can get stuck inside the pen and you cannot remove it. So remember to leave the wire little bit longer than needed, you can trim it shorter if too long.)
- Disable Windows Ink in Tablet Properties > Mapping.
- Disable Click function from pen tip.
- You're done! Enjoy your input lag free CTL-490!
If you're the dragging type making your own nibs from the trimmer wire is much cheaper than buying new wacom nibs.
The Wacom nibs are 5e for 5 nibs, I bought 15 meters of trimmer wire for 5e. Thats enought to make hundreds of new nibs!
