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.

    Anyone know how to get emails on just the answer to a problem?

    I'm interested in knowing when this issue is resolved but I'm tired of all the "me too" emails that are flooding my inbox. If Microsoft is actually following these posts then they certainly know it's an issue. Either they're going to fix it or they're not. Nobody on this list cares about those who are dissatisfied and are switching to something else. We're just waiting on news of a resolution.

    Any actual information is welcome.

    I care about those people and I think Microsoft does too.  The biggest problem I see here is that this thread has over 7000 views and only 14 pages of posts, mostly from the same people.  If every lurker following this thread for info would leave even one post about how pissed they are and how they want an immediate response, maybe we'd get a little more attention from the people that matter.  Maybe some of the tech sites would take notice and start calling Microsoft out for it more.  This is the most viewed unresolved thread on the board, but I think people still could and should be making a lot more noise about it.

    Hi all. 

    I'm following this tread from the beginning. Here in France Surface pro should be avaible soon... hummm let say  I expect so as Microsoft is also making a lot of secret about that!

    I'm particulary interrested in Surface Pro as a graphic tool. So of course full support in photoshop is absolut need for me.

    Surface team realy need to answer our questions fast !

    Signed up to post this and probably speaking on behalf of the majority of the lurking 7000.  I'm concerned about a stalemate and have decided to put purchasing the Surface Pro on hold until this specific feature becomes available.  Once Photoshop supports pressure sensitivity I will buy it.

    When I first heard that MSP had a wacom screen I immediately wanted one until I saw the penny arcade video and learned that it didn't fully work for photoshop.  Now, it seems there is a stalemate with whom should put forth the resources to develop the driver.

    Microsoft, you can resolve this immediately by giving official word that pressure sensitivity support in PS will exist at some point in the (hopefully) near future. That will be a confirmed sale for me.
