This issue has appeared overnight for some Win11 users and we don't really know where where it could come from.
This fixed the issue immediately! And to double check, I switched it back to "Wintab" and the lines appeared again. Will use "Ink" mode until Windows changes something else!
THANK YOU @Dean!

I found a Solution to this problem today. Maybe my workaround works for you.

1. Go to the dropdown menu in the lower right corner of the drawing window called "display"
2. Turn off "Show Camera"

Problem is gone.

Wow, that's a very odd bug you've discovered! It doesn't seem like the Show Camera should have anything to do with the drawing tools , but it must be some sort of display bug.
Hopefully the developers can figure out how to fix that. In the meantime, thank you very much for posting the simple workaround. How did you discover it ?

We had this problem in our studio as well.
We installed TVPaint 11.0.8 on a PC with Windows 11 installed in order to distribute equipment to new animators. At that time, the settings folder duplicated from TVPaint 11.0.8 on Windows 10.
When Wacom Cintiq 16 (DTK-1660) was used under these conditions, unnecessary vertical lines were drawn simultaneously on multiple computers.

conditions are:
- Using multiple monitors
- Place Cintiq on the bottom and other monitor on top to match physical monitor placement
・I set the Cintiq (bottom row) monitor as the main display in the Windows display settings.

Changing the other monitor (top position) to be the main display resolved the issue.

I don't know at this time if this solution applies to all similar issues I've encountered.
We would appreciate it if you could consider fixing this issue in the next version upgrade of TVPaint 11.7.

Just want to clarify that this worked, I installed w11 and had terrible issues with the forced strokes! changing it to ink worked for me! Thanks for the fix :D
