Short strokes with tablet pen in Animate and After Effects registering as dots.

Hey! I seem to be having an issue with my Adobe Software. Basically, when and only when using my tablet's pen, I run into an issue where small strokes register as a dot when using the prush/paintbrush/pencil tool etc in Animate or After Effects. The same tool works as expected when used by the mouse. It seems I have to draw a specific distance from the point of contact with the stylus for it to register a stroke, initially drawing a straight line from the point of contact to the stylus's ending position. This would make sense if the distance required was tiny i suppose, when drawing a dot is intended by the user, but in Adobe Animate for example, if my stroke is any shorter than about an inch on screen, the stroke will register as a single dot. I do not have this issue with Photoshop, so I do not believe it is a hardware or driver issue but perhaps a compatibility issue with how Adobe handles stylus input when drawing differently than with mouse input? I'm looking for any kind of workaround what so ever.

 

I have Adobe CC 2018, all apps are up to date and running in Windows 10.

My tablet monitor is the MP 22" IPS FHD Graphic Pen Display.

 

Things I have already tried:

-disabling effects in Windows Pen and Ink Settings, including double click, hold to right click, etc.

-I've even gone into the registry editor a little to turn any extra pen features off manually and restarted my PC.

-browsing forums and searching on Google for days.

 

This was an issue since the beginning, it hadn't originally worked and somehow got messed up.

 

Here's a video showing the issue.
