Tablet settings that do support Surface Pen pressure sensitivity
SUMMARY
This is a minor thing, but can be major to a new user.
The default Tablet Settings (WinTab) mean that Surface Pens do not support
pressure sensitivity. The user has to know to switch to Windows 8+ Pointer
Input (Windows Ink). Someone already familiar with Krita would know to Google
for the solution, but someone just trying Krita could easily think pressure
sensitivity is missing on their device.
Would it be possible to improve the autodetection of that setting so it works
out of the box?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Fresh Krita install on a fresh Surface device (tested on Surface Pro 9 and
Surface Laptop Studio 2 with Slim Pen 2)
2. New image, draw something with a brush that should support pressure
sensitivity
OBSERVED RESULT
Pen only supports on/off, no pressure sensitivity.
EXPECTED RESULT
Pressure sensitivity should work.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: Windows 11. Tried on several new Surface devices at Best Buy, and also
on personal device.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Attached screenshot of Tablet Input API setting that does support pressure
sensitivity on Surface Pen.
