Hello,
I have an issue when using my new Wacom Intuos pro M in combination with Windows 10 and Inkscape 0.92.3 on my dual monitor setup. When I am drawing within Inkscape on my Wacom tablet, the cursor is shown on a different place on the screen then where Inkscape is actually drawing. This works very confusing. I also tested the app Sketchpad (delivered with Windows 10), but this works perfect (also the pressure sensitivity).
When I disable the Wacom tablet pressure stylus in the input devices options, it works perfect! However... pressure sensitivity is broken :-(
What I am doing wrong? See screenshots below.
Thanks!

Welcome to the forum!
Unfortunately, I think you are seeing a bug - at least one bug. We already know there are a couple of problems using Inkscape in a dual or multiple monitor setup. But this is the first time I've heard of issues using a tablet with the dual monitor.
It looks like this has been reported a couple of years ago: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1188211 But please feel free to add a new comment there, at least to report that you still see the problem with your version ( 0.92.3 ?). Add any additional comments you think might be helpful for developers to know about. Especially the part about disabling something seems to fix it (that would seem like a great clue for developers to track down the problem).
We've been seeing more and more reports of people using Inkscape (or wanting to use) in a dual or multiple montior setup. So I hope developers are planning to address this issue soon.

Thanks! I have made a comment to the bug on Launchpad you mentioned. I'll hope this will help developers in finding a solution, because this is really annoying.
