Surface Pro Pen pressure sensitivity is not working in photoshop CS6.

wintab may be old but it works 3x better than the ink api and thats why adobe has never implemented it.

I don't see how this is the software developers fault. If Samsung was able to impliment Wintab into their tablet, I don't see what the problem is with Surface Pro. Both products use the same pen technology. Most developers would agree anyway that Ink API is buggy and incomplete.

I'm going to be so disappointed if this pen driver is just an update to Ink API.

Also me and and few others left a comment on the latest blog post regarding our suspicion, but as usual they went ignored (and it's not like they were too busy as the responded to others)

I don't think it's unreasonable for MS to want developers to utilize the newer API's.  Wintab is old and if they want to move away from it, then fine, and that's on the developers to catch up. 

Having said that...expectations should have been set with potential customers when the device launched so people wouldn't get the wrong idea (as they clearly did).  Between the announcement in June, when MS said that there was perfect Photoshop support, until release in February, someone was certainly aware that pressure sensitivity didn't work in Photoshop and many other programs.  Not only was nothing done to rectify that over so many months, nothing was done to communicate such a problem to the public.  If MS had said, "Pressure sensitivity is available, but check with your software vendor for support", I wouldn't have been waiting in line on day one.  I would have been reaching out to companies of the software I use regularly to figure out if this was a solution for me or if I should save my money and wait.

ArtRage is an acceptable program. But I would and hammer on the fact that either side (Microsoft, other third party software developers) to finish bridging the capability so that the programs work.

 I would opt for the comparable Samsung ATIV Smart PC Pro 700T but I hate their implementation of their hardware keyboard attachment and function (but the extra ports are a plus). Their default pen/stylus is suck as it doesn't have an eraser, which defeats the built in pen silo as you need to buy an external pen anyways, that sits outside of the device...

I ask that Corel, Adobe, and others as well/or Microsoft fix this soon. The strongest marketing comes from the end user and if your product is up to par, will speak volumes over whatever flashy commercial ever shows.
