Recently upgraded to the new chromium version of Edge.

The pen & ink settings aren't the same as the last version.

Not able to change the pen color, pen size, select pencil or highlighter if I open a pdf file in edge & try to write on it.

What happened to the choices?

Are there settings to change them?

Do I have to do a screen shot first?

Used to be able to write in real time on an open pdf file.

    RIght now you can only ink in a pdf and you have no control on the pen color or size (or it is well hidden). 

    Totally worthless, going back to old Edge. If it incorporates inking properly (i.e. identical or better then in previous edge) I might try it again, but for now I will keep Chrome as my default browser and edge as my pdf annoter...

    If at least they would have kept the old edge available (without a registry hack) I might have ditched chrome, since the new edge seems like a good clone, but for now I will ignore that hack and ignore the new edge all together, until they force feed it to us in an update.

    I can't find any pen input options at all!!!

    This is a terrible update, although I'm sure some of the other improvements are welcome...
