Wacom tablet not working properly with Figma

I haven’t been able to use my Wacom tablet with Figma at all, because the Pan/Zoom option seems to not work correctly. Here’s a video of the behavior of this function in Figma, versus the expected behavior shown in Adobe Photoshop:

It doesn’t allow me to pan vertically, and both the horizontal panning and the zooming are way too sensitive despite being set to the lowest possibly value. What surprises me the most is that there are a couple of similar messages in the forum asking about the same bug, but none of them received any answers.

Hey all, sorry for the trouble!

Since Figma isn’t fully supported on tablets yet, issues and consistencies are to be expected. Feel free to add your feedback for the team and vote for tablet compatibility here: Let us design on tablets/mobile (Fully featured Figma for iOS and Android)

I think you missed the point. We are not discussing tablets as a platform, but drawing tablets, digitizers, wich are basically just another input device.

Same thing here!
I have my Wacom Intuos BT tablet and on MacOS it has absolutely no problem to navigate, to create things, but once I move to my Windows computer the Intuos turns into a very clunky device for navigation. I don’t know if it is the operating system, or the driver, or the software but it is very annoying.
