Photoshop Problem With Wacom Tablet

I was drawing fine for a couple of minutes with my pen, and it suddenly randomly stopped being able to draw. When I click with my pen, it makes a dot, and then I can't click anything else with my pen. If I move my mouse, it starts drawing starting from the dot without me left clicking, and I have to left click somewhere to stop that. Also, the pen makes a dot in the spot I click, and then when I do CTRL-ALT-Z, it creates a line from the point I clicked on with my pen, to the spot I did the shortcut. My pen works normally on everything else but photoshop, I think I may have accidentally activated something. Deleting preferences doesn't work, restarting photoshop doesn't work, restarting pen drivers doesn't work, unplugging and plugging in the tablet doesn't work. At this point I think I'm going to have to abandon photoshop, and try to learn illustrator.

Ok............but I think there's probably a solution to your problem if you want it.

In the meantime.............

What OS are you using?

What version of Photoshop are you using?

Which Wacom Tablet are you using?

Sorry, but I have to run out for awhile, if no one has solved the issue, I will give it a shot when I get back.
