  1. How can I restore pressure sensitivity to the surface pro 3?


    My pen pressure hasn't worked since downloading the latest wacom driver.


    I looked at the driver I installed and I noticed it was my fault:

    "Important for Microsoft Surface tablets: This driver does not support any version of the Microsoft Surface. To use Bamboo Ink on Microsoft Surface devices with Microsoft Pen Protocol, you need to switch your Bamboo Ink to MPP mode as shown on the Bamboo Ink Getting Started page at"


    I tried to uninstall the wacom driver. I tried to find this MPP mode it's talking about. I just can't find anything about it.


    What I don't understand is how this affects my surface pro 3 pen. I can understand how a wacom driver would affect a wacom product, like my bamboo pen (which was why I downloaded the driver) but why is my surpace pro 3 pen affected by this too?


    I'm really confused and I just want to go back to whatever settings I had before.

    :)

    Pen pressure sensitivity calibration

    Hi all,

    I have two devices with active pen, one is Surface Pro 4 and one is HP Spectre x360 13.

    On the Surface I can calibrate the pressure sensitivity with the Surface App but on HP Spectre x360 this app is not compatible (only with the surface devices). There is a way to make the pen less sensitivity to pressure?

    For example when I use OneNote UWP I miss the 0.35 mm size that is present in OneNote 2016 and on the Surface Pro 4 I solved this with a pressure calibration.

  3. Surface Pro 3, Pen Pressure WINTAB

    Hello.

    I have downloaded and upgraded to Windows 10 on my Surface Pro 3. In which , I downloaded the N-Trig Wintab driver from Microsoft, Revision 18. But when using Paint Tool SAI, there is no Pen Pressure at all, as well as checking it, I looked to see if the Pen
    Pressure was working in OneNote, Manga Studio 5, Clip Studio Paint, Photoshop, Sketch Book Pro and it was working perfectly in these.

    But with SAI, it wasnt working at all. I went into the Misc.ini settings for SAI and changed it to read from the Wintab Driver, but this didnt work. I followed other steps noted by other Artists on Deviant Art, and had no prevail.

    I had pen pressure in SAI on Windows 8.1, which was working a treat. I changed the battery to my Surface 3 Pen,Refreshed, then I tried to reset the Surface Pro 3 using Windows Troubleshoot.

    It seems to only be an issue with Windows 10, as it works perfectly on Windows 8.1, and I feel like Windows 10 just doesnt know how to run Wintab. I even tried adding "Wintab32.dll" to the regsvr32 list, and it came up saying there was a Binary Error with
    the DLL. Which was downloaded from Microsoft's website about 20 different times.

    Please help, I want to stay with Windows 10 (Was part of the Insider Program), and I know it worked perfectly during the Tech Preview. But I need to be able to use my Pen Pressure.

    Thanks.

    Photoshop CS4, SP4, Wintab - no pressure sensitivity

    I'm also having trouble with this, I have a copy of Photoshop CS4 and can't commit to paying for the creative cloud at the moment so can't update the software. I have installed wintab onto my Surface Pro 4 but can't get Photoshop to recognise the pressure
    sensitivity - it does work on other applications and I have enable pressure sensitivity on Photoshop.
