Where is the Windows Ink feature?  I use/used the ink markup of a web page in the legacy Edge all the time.  I can't find it anywhere in the new Edge.

Hi Kurt,

unfortunately, inking on websites is one of the many features that are not (yet) available in the new edge chromium.

you can make the suggestion to the feedback team, from within edge Alt+Shift+I, the more users that want this feature the more likely that Microsoft will add it.

09/03/2020:

Inking in web pages would be available by end of the September in the Dev/Canary branches of Microsoft Edge. Expect more information about the stable release in the future.

    The major reason for me to use EDGE is the inking function on webpages and PDFs. Can I switch back to the old version of EDGE?

    Microsoft why do you add features to then remove them again? Inking and pdf editing in the older version of Edge was brilliant, now its gone together with send to onenote  - that is an update?

    I'm not leaving Edge and don't plan to, but what I am going to do is continue to use Edge Legacy (the not New Edge) as my primary browser. New Edge (also known as Edge Chromium) does have capabilities that Edge Legacy does not, although the only ones I have found so far that I care about is requirements for some videoconferencing sites such as Google Hangouts & Zoom (although my preference would have been to use Skype, but since I wasn't the host, I had no choice). Aside from Inking & the general UI, I have also noticed that Edge Legacy does a much better job for viewing PDF files, which we all know are sometimes a very important component of the Internet. So I'll be here when Edge Chromium does become user friendly & adds the features I want, but until then it will be second place.
