If using Windows make sure that the tablet drivers are the most recent for your Windows version.
However, since it was working but is not working now, I would first check the brush dynamics. Easy to overlook and might be set to none or a dynamic which does not include pressure.
Other than that, maybe start from scratch, Go into your Gimp profile ./gimp-2.8 find the file devicerc and disable by renaming to something like devicerc-bak Start up Gimp and it will create a new default file.
Thank you so much!I am running linux as well so my drivers were not the problem, I had already checked the dynamics as well. I renamed that file, went in and changed my stylus mode to Screen, and BAM!!!! it works. Thank you so much, I have been very frustrated with this problem and now I figure out its just a simple fix.
Hey, I made an account just so i could share how i figured it out. I didnt need to rename anything or repeatedly try to change my device from disabled to screen...
Instead i went to Edit > Modules > and there i disabled the mouse receptor one (i am sorry, i cannot be specific here not only because it may vary depending on your device, but also because it disappeared once i disabled it and when i tried my wacom tablet again, the pressure started to work as if by miracle)
if any one knows more about what i did, please feel free to clarify!
