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.

    Y'all might be interested to know Windows 11 has a new Snipping Tool

    The old Snipping Tool & Snip & Sketch are both gone in Win11.

    Cheers,
    Drew

    I also agree that the previous implementation of the ink feature for websites/pdf was much better, very handy for tablets and specially for schools and education.

    I suspect that there may be some kind of limitation in the current website rendering engine used by Edge Chromium, but I hope that they try to fix it in the future.

    I dislike how they tried to force the automatic update before there was feature parity, giving no option to reinstall it for specific tasks where using the old version is not a security concern.
