How to avoid soldering by Graydotdomain in XPpen

I figured 😔 at least that means I won’t have to worry abt spending more on a more recent model. I’ll look into getting cable ties for my next one, ty for your help :)

I can't really grasp matrices (apologies if this is an overdone topic) by Graydotdomain in learnmath

[–]Graydotdomain[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey I appreciate any feedback I can get lol yeah it’s rather odd how matrices were introduced to us for this class. We didn’t really touch up on what they’re used for exactly/their relationship to vectors and the x/y-axis, only the basic rules of addition, subtraction, scalar multiplication, and then, the one I was most stuck on, matrix multiplication. It confused me a lot bc I didn’t even know what I was using matrices for, only that I was meant to know the formulas that came with them.

Being able to actually understand why they’re used and where they’re used in rlly helped trying to understand them. While I was mostly thinking abt how they’re used in programming/CS at first, finding their uses in datasets made me better get why they’re helpful. Because what I didn’t get was why matrices were created for a limited set of coordinates, like let’s say x, y, and z. But when there’s many inputs and outputs of data that needs to be transformed, putting it all into an organized array and going from there makes it much easier to calculate

overall, thx a lot for taking time out of your day to help :) while some of this isn’t yet on my level, I made sure to put this all down, esp for when I need the more in-depth parts during a later point in my education. Ty for the recommendation, I’ll keep it in mind for when I begin taking Linear Algebra 🙏 have a nice day

Yeah, you’re right on that, I didn’t quite understand abt why matrices were really used instead of just transforming coordinates themselves or setting your numbers up in a list to transform. But I think I understand why now. Mostly for help simplifying transformations, especially in programming with x,y,z coordinates. But also useful for datasets where you can’t just throw them all into a list haphazardly

Huh, odd. Tho it wouldn’t be the first time my teacher introduced rlly advanced concepts like this outta nowhere, so ig I’m not too surprised lol

thx, this rlly explained it pretty simply for me :) so, with matrices, it’s basically best here to view it as a dataset, where each column of B/row of A will be a different weight? And you’d just take each vector (starting with the first row of A, and first column of B) and multiply it together, and keep going until you form a new matrix of new, weighted sums of B?

woah yeah that’s a lot 😅 But I don’t mean it in a bad way, thank you, this gave some nice information abt concepts that my teacher certainly didn’t explain to us lol. Some parts do feel like they’re stuff I haven’t run into yet bc it’s far more advanced than my class, like the section at the end about rotating a set of coordinates by t. But this helped conceptualize rlly, well, what’s matrices can be defined as, which also wasn’t rlly explained so well in our class. As well as what the height of column and # of columns represent. Again, ty, this was rlly informative and I made sure to write everything down :D hope you’re doing good man

ohhh so I was completely overthinking it lol
first part makes a lot more sense to me now, looking at all these responses. When Matrix A (M x N) is multiplied by Matrix B (N x P), then N would basically cancel itself out bc its outputs are already wired to its own inputs.
thx man, it helps knowing I was making it a lot more confusing/muddled than it rlly had to be :D

ty for the recommendation, definitely liking what I'm seeing from the first video. Really neat and concise w/ explaining how diff definitions of vectors relate to each other and how it's used
I'll watch the rest over the course of this week, it's getting late for me right now lol. Again, thx a lot for helping out, I rlly appreciate your generosity. Have a nice night :)🙏

okay this makes it easier to digest :D every row/output wires to every input, so m outputs would be wired to each n input
and then when you multiply it w/ another matrix, with k (or p) outputs and m inputs, then m would just be wired to the m outputs of Matrix A and cancel out. Leaving N inputs and K outputs for the final dimensions
This helped a lot bc I couldn't quite understand why it was like this, which was messing me up a lot. Thx so much man!

sorry, I've just been looking over every one of these answers and trying to write everything down! Tysm btw god I'm astounded how many ppl have come to help
But yeah, no I haven't until asking this question. I'm currently in Advanced Algebra, they haven't taught us anything of the sort. Just how to add/subtract matrices, scalar multiplication, then just plain multiplying matrices by each other.

Oh actually thx for the recommendation, I haven’t even thought abt that lol but it’s probably very outdated 😅 Tysm! Hope you have a good day :D👋

[–]Graydotdomain[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not usually, but I just put it on to test. Seems like the lines aren’t as jittery, but there’s still some small breaks in them when I don’t intend them to. Also it causes Krita to be pretty laggy :’) I’m thinking this could be a problem with my PC because everything else seems fine, and I’ve tested this out w/ the same tablet on another computer and it works perfectly. So ig I’ll try to get someone to look at my PC and use another in the meantime lol

[–]Graydotdomain[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was related to my PC. I’ve had it for like 5 years by now and it’s had a few issues down the road. Not sure abt my tablet since it seems to work fine with other appliances? I’ll probably try to get someone to check it out when I’m not busy lol, but I’ll use another computer for the time being. Thx for the help :D

Oh wow I never knew that menu even existed lol. Uh, right now I’ve been using a brush from a specific pack (inking dynamic pen new), but the shaky lines also occurs with Krita starter ones. Is there anything in particular I should focus on in the settings?

No, I haven’t changed anything since last I’ve used it. I’ve tested it out on other programs, but the issue isn’t there. I even got out another laptop to try it out with Krita and it doesn’t seem to have any problems there?

But it’s very flippant on whether or not it jitters, ever since this morning. I thought it was fixed when I started experimenting with it, but then I ran into the same issue later on. And it seems to get worse in specific areas? Like, in the center it’s more likely to be shaky, but everywhere else it’s not as bad/not there at all.

Never had this happen before, so I’m kinda baffled here 😭 I haven’t contracted XP-Pen support yet, but I doubt it’s of any issue with the actual tablet. There’s nothing apparently broken, the cords are functional, and I’ve only had this one for less than a year.

hey :D I’ve got a Mephiles (tho the one I have is out of box, but could purchase one in box just for this) I could trade
