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.

    Going with last generation tech (Samsung series 7 slate) because of these issues. Getting a used one for $600 makes more sense at this point. The Wacom tablet PC will be great, I'm sure, but I'm also sure it will be well beyond my budget. Maybe by the end of the year, someone will have a functional AND affordable Windows 8 tablet solution for artists.

    So, out of curiosity here - just how hard would it be to write a plugin for photoshop that captures the pen input and passes it on to however photoshop wants to read it? I'd really love a solution in a pinch, and I'd be willing to try my hand at it. But I've never written a plugin for Photoshop before. Anyone want to suggest where to go for API's and hello world examples to get started?

    Greetings everyone,

    We do not have an update on timing for the driver at this time, but we will pass along the request.

    Best regards.

    Hi Hugo, can you shed a little more light on this for us.  Are you guys working on a Wacom wintab driver? Or are you just updating the existing pen driver?

    Thanks,

    Ryan
