Surface Pro Pen pressure sensitivity is not working in photoshop CS6. Was anyone able to get their surface pro to use the pen pressure sensitivity? In my photoshop settings when i turn on Pen Pressure for brush settings i see a yellow exclamation mark next to each settings which has to do with pen pressure. If anyone knows how to solve this problem please let me know.

    This article heresays Microsoft will release updates that will enable Photoshop pressure sensitivity this month. However, it is April 26th and we fully updated, but are not having any success with pen pressure yet.

    It says 'in the coming months', meaning there is no implied date, just 'soon'.

    It turns out that even though the Surface Pro does use Wacom technology (Wacom pens will work with it),

    When you say that Wacom pens will work with it.  Do you mean to say that If I have a wacom pen from an intuos or graphire, it will work on the surface pro in Photoshop with pressure sensitivity?

    Well Adobe programs aren't the only programs victim to this, there are a variety of other widely used art software that are unusable. So don't push them away

    Also I'm taking Steven's tweet as a confirmation that they have been working on Wintab, and not some junky workaround for Photoshop. (And if not we know who to tear to shreds) That puts me at a little more ease, still no date though. Beta driver do exists and it seems they aint willing to share either. Oh well
