Bug ID: 460190
Summary: When using Krita on the Samsung Tab S8 Ultra, Jitter
is present in brush strokes depending on how far or
close your zoom is to the canvas.
Classification: Applications
Product: krita
Version: 5.1.1
Platform: Android
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Keywords: reproducible, usability
Severity: normal

SUMMARY
***
When drawing without Krita's brush stabilizer feature, I'm getting line jitter
on my Tab S8 Ultra. My issue mirrors the problem I've seen others report when
working on other tablets. Example:
https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=139&t=161465
Drawing with the canvas zoomed far out results in jittery lines. Drawing with
the canvas zoomed very close gives smooth lines. I've tested strokes in other
tablet apps (Infinite Painter, Clip Studio) to make sure it's not my hand
shaking and it's not. Even when I connect my Tab S8 to my PC as a pen display
and use Krita on my Windows 10 desktop, the problem happens on the desktop
version too.
And I know it's not just my unit, because I had the same exact problem on my
previous Samsung Tablet (the Tab S7 Plus).
Anti-alias for the brush is set to 'on.' I've followed tutorials aimed at
ensuring smooth lines. None of these things have worked so far. The
line-stabilizer feature that's inbuilt can help, but I should not have to rely
on such a feature, since the Tab S8 Ultra is capable of smooth strokes
unassisted.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Using a Tab S7 Plus or a Tab S8 Ultra, open the Krita app and create a new
canvas. (Make sure brush smoothing is set to none.)
2. Zoom far out from the canvas and with a basic brush tool selected, draw a
series of diagonal lines with your S Pen at medium speed.
3. Zoom in very close to the canvas and repeat the process of drawing diagonal
lines with your S Pen at medium speed.
OBSERVED RESULT
The lines drawn while zoomed far away from the canvas are jittery. The lines
drawn at close zoom are smoother. The smoothness of the line (or lack thereof)
is proportional to the level of zoom.
EXPECTED RESULT
The drawn lines should be smooth, whether zoomed in close or zoomed out far
from the canvas.
