I use a wacom tablet/pen and Flash and don't have any problems at all. That

being the case, you might want to double check the settings in Flash to make

sure you don't have something unusual checked for the pencil and brush

(there's a button that locks, a snap to grid type command i think (i hate

these and don't use them often), and make sure the pencil is set to smooth

or ink rather than line etc.) Also, just in case, check the pen in another

program to make sure it's working properly.


My tablet was a xmas present this year and I love it, love it, love it :)
