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.

    Thanks everyone for the lively discussion on this topic! I installed the Wacom drivers today, and it looks like things are working as they should now! I can finally use that top button on the pen and there's pressure now!

    I'm relieved that after a fair wait MS / Wacom came through for their customers. It's working very well since I installed it and re-calibrated last night.

    I've got some of my confidence back in MSFT now, still a little miffed. Either way we've got what we want and I hope in future glaring omissions like this are not obfuscated in product releases. If I'd have known about this before buying, I would have waited until the driver was released and publicised and STILL bought the Pro. Gotta have a little faith in your customer base.

    Is it still possible to do the 273-point calibration after installing the Wacom driver? I can't seem to get it to work. It keeps telling me calibration data already exists and resetting does nothing. I can't find the linearity data in the registry anymore either to delete it that way.

    Hi All,

    I have downloaded and installed the drivers.  Thanks to MS and Wacom.

    I have the following questions :

    1.  Will this on all drawing / canvasing applications even like  in "Paint" ?

    2.  Do I have to use a different / compatible stylus for this?

    Please suggest.

    Thanks,

    VN
