%%%The "Emulate 3-button mouse" input option is necessary for navigation with a tablet. While sculpting, the user can get stuck drawing a stroke and being unable to rotate the view or do anything else if he performs this sequence of inputs:

  1. Press down the pen
  2. Press alt
  3. Lift pen
  4. Lift alt

This sequence is not usually intentional, but it occurs often while sculpting and rotating the view frequently.%%%

%%%Interesting ; what is ALT during paint meant to do?%%%

%%%You rotate the view by pressing ALT and drawing with your tablet. This only works if you're using the "Emulate 3-button mouse" setting. It's much more comfortable than rotating the view by pressing the pen buttons, at least for some tablets like the wacom intuos 3, where the placement of the buttons is not very good.%%%

%%%I see the bug, but I wonder why ALT makes paint keeping to work.

Note that in 2.64 release, blender keeps painting during alt-press (after lifting pen) and stops on alt-release.

It now doesnt stop on release - that is the bug.

I wondered if that ALT trick was a feature.%%%

%%%Thanks for the report - it was an issue since 2010 actually. (The ALT 'trick' i mentioned was the bug, causing now more damage because of cleanup elsewhere).

Fix in svn!%%%
