Hi,  
I am about to buy an Huion tablet and I wonder if there is any workaround using it with Processing. Is it compatible with any library?

Thanks

Processing isn’t a paint application. Can your tablet simulate a normal system mouse? If so, then you can produce mouseX, mouseY, and mousePressed / dragged / released events, by touching and dragging with your pen to move the mouse cursor around the sketch.

For pressure sensitivity messages you might need a driver that you can read, and some way of getting that information – like Java JPen.

There is an old Processing library, Tablet, which used JPen and was tested with Wacom tablets only. No idea if it would work with contemporary Processing 3 + Wacoms, or with Huion.
