Wacom Pen only working on Laptop screen
Hello :)
I'm using a MacBook Air and have some issues with the Pen.
The Tablet works, but i can only draw on it when it's mirrored to my Laptop screen. Every time I try to use the pen on the tablet while it's not mirrored, the cursor just jumps to the main display (Laptop screen).
I could just use it mirrored, but it's a bit frustrating if I want to look up references, etc.
I've tried setting the Tablet as a main display, but the Pen keeps jumping to my Laptop screen.
I hope my question isn't confusing, English isn't my first language and I don't know how else i should phrase the question.
I also hope my questions wasn't already answered, but I didn't find anything to this Problem on here.

Hello Milo Pleschko,
Welcome to the community.
Can you tell us what operating system, Wacom driver version and Wacom display model you are using?
I would suggest that you check the video connection first and this issue is often connect to the Wacom Display not being properly recognized by the operating system and not allowing the pen mapping to work on the correct display.

Thank you for your answer
The operating system for my mac is Ventura 13.5.1, I'm using the Wacom cintiq 16 and I have the most recent driver for the mac installed.
Do you mean the HDMI port with video connection? If so, i've checked and it connects fine.

Hi Milo Pleschko,
I assume you are using an adapter as most recent MacBook Air devices don't have native HDMI ports.
Could you try using a different adapter and see if the situation improves?
Also please run a quick test and see if that works:
- Open the Wacom Center
- Open the Display settings
If you get an error message, it means that the handshake between the computer and the display isn't working properly.
You can also try to use the calibration feature and select the Wacom Cintiq from the drop down list.
