Created attachment 106980 [details] No pressure in surface book No support Surface Book pen？No pressure in surface book
At least on the Surface Pro 3 and 4, installing the ntrig wintab drivers works. I haven't got access to a Surface Book, so I don't know whether those drivers work on the Book, though I assume they do. See: https://docs.krita.org/KritaFAQ#Microsoft_Surface_Pro_and_NTrig Without a wintab driver, the pen will function like a mouse, not a pen. There is someone working on supporting the Windows Ink api directly, but I haven't seen results yet.
There was a person on IRC yesterday that had a new surface 2017. He said he needed to install the VC++ runtime which made it start working in addition to the wintab drivers.
We have a test version with Windows Ink support: https://krita.org/en/item/angle-and-windows-ink-a-new-test-version-of-krita-for-windows/ It would be nice if you can test it and help fill in the short survey.

Add Win8+ Pointer Input Message for tablet support This uses Pointer Input Messages for Windows Ink support, with right-click button, 1024 levels of pressure, rotation and tilt support. An option is added to enable this support. It cannot be used together with WinTab at the moment. Let's say it is EXPERIMENTAL.
