Path Properties:Tablet Pen Pressure

is there such a thing?
Theoretically, there must be. in order for a calligraphic brush pen to store the data and appropriately render the actual path the path seemingly MUST contain SOME type of information about how the brush tool was used.
So my question is, is there anybody out that that knows what this property is? or how it's called? any help is appreciated, even if it's just a large repository of adobe properties i could search through.
thanks in advance,

Did you ever figure this out?
Would be great to have a script that translates path vertices to an XML-style output with X, Y and pressure.

  • Wacom Tablet Pen Pressure stops working in Photoshop after using Lightroom Local Adjustment Brush

    Hi all,
    I am experiencing a problem with my Intuos Pro Medium (driver 6.3.9w3 on Windows 8.1)
    I am using Lighroom 5.6 and Photoshop CC 2014.
    I an get the pen pressure to work in Photoshop without any problem. However, if I go into Lightroom and use the Local Adjustment Brush and then transfer the photo into Photoshop (Right Click Edit In => Edit in Adobe Photoshop 2014 CC) then the pen pressure stops working in Photoshop.
    Really frustrating... The only workaround is to close both Photoshop and Lightroom, then reopen Photoshop, then usually the Pen pressure feature starts working again.
    Has anyone experienced this before or has any idea how to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Guillaume

    Your tablet driver isn't reporting pressure correctly.
    The knockoff tablet drivers usually need to be revised for each new version of Photoshop (and we have no idea why).
    Contact your tablet maker to see if they have updated drivers to fix their bugs.

  • Disable tablet pen pressure for eraser tool in PSE 10?

    Hi, I recently bought PSE 10.
    I have an Intuos 3 Wacom tablet and whenever I switch to the Eraser tool, in the brush preview icon (top left corner) I see this ~ type of a shape with narrow-pointy edges, indicating that the size-pen-pressure feature is on.
    This is always true, even when I switch off all the per-pressure options via the Brush tool.
    Can anyone hint how to control or at-least disable the pen-pressure feature while in the Eraser tool?
    Thank you.

    One way would be to use the Basic Brushes which are not set for any pressure functions by default.
    Or if you need a special brush you could save the brush without any pressure settings with the brush tool selected
    and those settings should carry over for the eraser tool.
    Also, you can set the mode to clear with the brush tool and that will act like the eraser tool set on the brush mode.

  • CS3 + Wacom Intuos tablet: pen pressure not recognized in CS3

    Photoshop won't recognize my tablet for Pen Pressure sensitivity. Under the Brush settings it has the yellow triangle that says "Pen Pressure requires the use of a pressure sensitive tablet." I've installed the latest driver for Windows 7, and the tablet works in programs like Corel Painter and Sketchbook with no pressure problems, so it's definitely Photoshop. What do I do?

    I did. I have installed the latest driver for Windows 7.

  • Tablet + pen pressure + illustrator CS5 issue

    Hello all,
       I just installed Illustrator CS5 and I can't get the brushes to recognize pen pressure from my graphics tablet (intuos3).
    I have tried all the combos of brushes, strokes, etc.  It looks like all the 6D options (bearing, tilt, pressure) are greyed out. Thus, the ap doesn't recognize when I am using my pen.
    Oddly, the pen works great in Photoshop CS5.
    I am working on Windows 7.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks!
    _Todd

    I'm with Todditron and the others with lack of pressure problem.
    I'm on a Mac running OSX 10.6.6, with a Wacom Graphire4.
    Pressure works in Photoshop CS5. In illustrator, pen works-making lines and scribbles as directed, but no variation with increased/decreased pressure. In the Brushes panel, I can double click on selected brush, opening an Art Brush Options window, and change width, roundness, etc from "fixed" to "pressure," but those qualities remain fixed, regardless of my pressure.
    Wrote to and heard back from Wacom Help Desk. Followed their instructions..
    "I would recommend removing your current driver by opening your Applications folder and double clicking on the Remove Wacom tablet icon or the Wacom tablet utility icon found in the Wacom tablet folder there.  Inside that removal utility you’ll want to click on the remove tablet software button and then enter your password to remove your current driver.  Once the driver has been removed you’ll then want to repair your disk permissions before installing the latest.  To do this if you open your Utilities folder at the bottom of your Applications folder, in there will be an icon for Disk Utility that you’ll want to double click on.  In the Disk Utility you’ll then want to select your Macintosh HD on the left hand side and then click the repair disk permissions button towards the bottom.  Once the permissions repair is complete you can then download and install the latest driver for your tablet from our website."
    to no avail. Tried the process again, restarting the computer after repairing Disk Permissions and reinstalling newest tablet driver. No go.

  • Tablet Pen Pressure not working

    I got a M708 Ugee Graphics Tablet just yesterday, I was sketching on photoshop and pressure sensitivity was working fine, then later on the same day I re-opened my photoshop tab and pressure sensitivity was no longer working, I hadn't even restarted photoshop or anything.
    I checked the brush window, It's set to pen pressure but there's an ! warning saying I need a tablet with pressure sensitivity (which I do have)
    I can not seem to get it to work again, I've tried absolutely everything, I uninstalled and reinstalled my tablet driver, I also uninstalled and reinstalled photoshop, and I restarted my laptop multiple times, This issue is really bugging me and I'm getting quite desperate since I spent the last 2 hours trying to solve this issue, Any ideas what I can do?

    If your tablet is a USB device, try a different USB port.
    Also, you might want to contact the vendor to see if they have a compatibility issue with Photoshop CC(2014).
    Adobe Photoshop from CC and backward was FLASH based.
    Photoshop CC (2014) abandoned Flash and now uses HTML5.
    Your tablet maker may not have ported their driver to run under CC(2014) HTML5.
    If you still have Photoshop CC on your system, Try using the tablet there and see if it works ok.
    If it does, then contact the tablet maker and see what issues they might have.

  • ACR and tablet, pen pressure

    I know, that pen pressure does not work in Adobe Camera Raw. But can anyone explain me, WHY? It works everywhere else - in PS, in Lightroom etc., but not in ACR!
    And is there any chance, that it will implemented there in the future?

  • Pen pressure wont work with Elements 13

    I am incredibly frustrated right now. I finally decided to upgrade my elements 8 to 13 because it was on sale. My Huion 580 tablet pen pressure functions work great with Photoshop Elements 8, so I assumed that I would not have a problem with Photoshop Elements 13. I have tried everything including playing with my tablet settings and brush settings in the program. Nothing will make the pressure sensitivity on the brush work! I know it is not a problem with the tablet because it still works just fine on my elements 8. The upgrade is useless to me unless I can get the pen to work. Any suggestions?
    thanks in advance

    Which operating system are you using?
    Does the tablet maker have any updated drivers?

  • Pen Pressure in CS4 Vista 64-bit

    Even through all other applications on my PC were able to respond to tablet pen pressure, CS4 running in Vista 64-bit did not. I was able to get the pressure to work when executing the 32-bit photoshop.exe found in C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Photoshop.exe. I'll continue to use the 32-bit program until Adobe solves this in the 64-bit version.
    It was good of Adobe to automatically install both a 32-bit and a 64-bit version of the program.

    [high pitched Flanders] aaarrrrgghhhhh [/high pitched Flanders]
    ..>cough<..sorry about that.. :)
    cs4 x64 in vista x64 does respond to pen pressure....have you installed the new drivers...are you using a Wacom?
    Did you miss the massive thread about it?

  • "pen pressure requires the use of a pressure sensitive tablet" in WINDOWS 8.1

    old problem but different system
    "control by pen pressure requires the use of a pressure sensitive tablet"
    I have a problem with it. There is problem when i using my Intuos pro or Cintiq 22 and my version of photoshop is CC.
    Can somebody help me with this? hope for some simple solution ; )

    If I recall correctly I solved this problem by things I found on the internet. However this is for Windows 7 and it has been a long time ago...
    Don't know if it is still appropriate but here goes:
    Windows Prof:
    Run “gpedit.msc” (click start, in the box closest to the button type “gpedit.msc” without quotes)
    Click User Configuration, then drop down Administrative Templates, then drop down Windows Components, then drop down Tablet PC. Finally click “Cursors”
    Now double-click Turn off pen feedback. Click the radio button “enable” and click ok.
    Windows Home:
    circle1
    Press the windows key
    type "pen and touch" and press enter
    In the window that appears, left-click the entry "Press and hold" and click "settings".
    Uncheck "Enable press and hold for right-clicking".
    Click OK on both windows to close them
    circle2
    Press the windows key
    type "computer management" and press enter
    In the window that opens, Double click "Services and Applications" in the centre column
    Double click "Services" in the centre column
    Scroll down and double click "Tablet PC Input Service"
    Find the "Startup type:" dropdown box and change it to "Disabled".
    Click OK, then close the Computer Management window
    Restart your PC
    After your PC loads up again, one of two things should happen: either your tablet works happily and circle-free, or it doesn't work at all. If it doesn't work at all, you now need to download and install the proper driver for it (to replace the Microsoft one that you just disabled). If you use a wacom, you can find the driver for your tablet here.

  • Pen Pressure on Monoprice tablet

    So I'm trying to get pen pressure to work in Adobe Photoshop. I'm running Windows 8, PS CS6.
    Most answers provided say to update driver but mine is up to date. Pen pressure works fine in ArtRage and the Test panel of the software settings:  http://i.imgur.com/763J1hW.png
    But in Photoshop all I receive is a thick line with no response to pen pressure. Any idea on how to fix this?

    I've been to the monoprice drivers on their website and installed their tablet 'complete' pack. Unzipped and installed yet no changes. Would you say it was just down to having a knock off tablet?

  • CS3 Tablet PC, pen pressure not working.

    http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/Shokemn/photoshoppen.png
    is what my settings for pen look like right now
    but my issue is that theres no sensitivity every time i set it to "pen pressure" the little triangle pops up beside it saying I need a pen pressure sensitive tablet.
    But I do have one, I have a tablet PC (laptop with a touchscreen) specifically its a HP Pavilion tx 2000.
    What i'm hoping to have it look like:http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/Shokemn/photoshoppenafter.png
    any help would be super appreciated i dont know what to do at this point.

    People report time and again that COMPLETELY removing the old driver, then installing the latest, does good things for them.
    Photoshop, being an advanced application, demands a lot of the components it works with.

  • Photoshop won't recognize my tablet is sensitive to pen pressure

    Hey. I'm trying to hook my tablet up to Photoshop CC but when I go into the brush menu and set it to pen pressure I get an error icon that says my tablet isn't pressure sensitive. I know my tablet is because the driver for the tablet has a pressure setting where you can adjust the pressure sensitivity and test it and it adjusts well and responds in that window. I'm working with Windows 8.1 and I have a Huion PRO610. Anyone go any ideas?

    Contact the tablet makers and see if they have an updated driver to fix the problems.
    Photoshop can only react to the tablet information it gets from the OS, which gets the data from the driver.

  • CS6 does not recognise pen pressure (Trust Tablet) though all other programs do

    Hi
    Trying to get pen pressure to work via the Brush Presets menu. I keep getting the 'exclamation mark' and it doesn't work. Pressure sensitivity IS working - just not in CS6. Please help!

    Hi,
    What operating system are you using?
    Have you installed the latest driver from the trust website?

  • I have Wacom Intuos 4, and for some reason pen pressure isn't working with PSE 10

    I can still use wacom tablet pen to draw in Photoshop Elements 10, but I am frustrated because I could not get lines thinner and thicker with more pressure I apply with the pen like I could with Photoshop Elements 7 - and I had already checked "size"  in the tablet setting in PSE 10.  I also made sure I set up my Wacom Tablet Properties to apply to Photoshop Elements 10, and I still can't vary the lines like I want.   Any suggestions?  (also, could it be because I unwittingly bought and installed  34 bits PSE 10 in my 64-bit computer with Window 7  - is that what is preventing PSE 10 from making lines thin and thick with pen pressure?) 
    Thanks for your help.  

    photodrawken, I went to Wacom website and looked up the latest driver.  I see Driver 4.60 for Windows -- will that work on my 64 Windows 7?   (The information didn't mention which Windows, but did warned not to install it on Window Vista 64.)
