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.

    Well, I am quitting the "new" Edge. Firefox is more friendly. Microsoft should STOP! releasing unfinished updates.

    It defies logic that you would eliminate the one feature that made Edge stand out versus all the other browsers.  I have meetings where I mirror my monitor to a large Dell touchscreen.  Pulling up maps and street views and being able to mark things up with the simple push of the pen button was invaluable.  I realize many people have to make change for the sake of making change (smh) but to do so by eliminating the browsers best feature is the height of absurdity.

    I am sorry it won't. Legacy Edge would no longer be developed as we have been told.

    (Personal opinion not reflecting my moderator role here): Legacy Edge had a lot of website compatibility problems which caused problems for both Microsoft and the devs, essentially the reason why they had to switch to the common Engine. I tried to use Legacy Edge countless times and had to switch to Chrome because of obvious reasons. Since Edge Chromium released, I have never looked back. Rest assured Inking features would come however it may take a while.
