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.

    This is a HUGE downgrade. I also used to annotate pdfs in Edge all the time. I could highlight and mark up with digital ink. Now I can’t highlight, and the only ink available is a thick, pixellated blue line.  Even worse, you cant use your finger to scroll

    • it thinks your finger is an ink pen, too and just draws all over the page instead of scrolling. Edge doesn’t know the difference between the pen and your finger. Now I question what good does the Surface Pro do for me anymore? 

    I cant even begin to describe how disappointed andI am about this “upgrade.”

    Seems like things are going backwards. Ink feature is one the the most important tools on my tablet
