Annoying Windows Touch Animations

When clicking in a program that don't use a pen, windows plays this "splashing" circle animation. When clicking and holding to make a right-click in programs that don't use a pen, windows plays this "loading circle" animation.
Programs that use the pen as a pen (for example Onenote) don't show any of those animations.

But when using AnkiDraw those animations are played which is really annoying.

I have tried:
Disabling Widows Ink in Wacom Center
Disabling "Let me use my pen as a mouse in some desktop apps" in windows settings

Nothing changes those animations in anki.

in Windows pen settings, disable "show visual effects". It should disable those animations in all programs. But the right click loading circle animation is still there.

I have:
Anki 25.07.5 (7172b2d2)
Windows 11 24H2 Build 26100.6899
Wacom Intuos BT S pen tablet
Wacom driver version 6.4.11-1

Sorry for recording my screen with my phone. But those animations don't show up in a screen recording or screenshot.

Hi @LinusHeu Can you confirm that with "show visual effects" off, you already have the fix for the left click splash and only have the issue on the right click loading?

Can you check if this solves the issue for you?

Go Into CONTROL PANEL (make sure you set view to "large icons")
click on "PEN AND INK"
Double-Click on "Press and Hold"
uncheck the tickbox

Yes. Exactly.

Go Into CONTROL PANEL (make sure you set view to "large icons")
click on "PEN AND INK"
Double-Click on "Press and Hold"
uncheck the tickbox

I'm sorry, this doesn't work for me. Because it entirely disables the "hold to right click" functionality. So I can't right-click any more with the pen in any programs.
