X200 Tablet... How to get photoshop pressure sensitivity?

#1 Post by janm » Fri Jun 24, 2011 5:43 pm

Hi Guys,

I have the X200 tablet (multi touch) and just cannot get pressure sensitivity working in photoshop.
It works fine in other drawing applications. Initially i didn't have pressure sensitivity in any application
but installing the Wacom Penabled driver solved this for all apps but photoshop.

Anyone have suggestions? Can't seem to find a proper answer to this searching on the net.

Its running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
photoshop cs5.
All lenovo drivers installed to latest.
Wacom Penabled isd701-8 installed.


thanks,

Jan

There's some older Wacom drivers for Fujitsu notebooks that offer pressure sensitivity. I'm not sure which model(s) used them, but it's a start in the right direction. I deleted all that stuff when I sold my X200t. I might have a copy on my bluray archive. Let me take a look.

It turns out I didn't have it, but after doing some digging, I believe you can download it here.

Hi,

Unfortunatly the driver does not get me pressure sensitivity in photoshop cs5.
Looking at the net sucess seems to vary.
thanks for taking the time to dig up that information though, appreciate it.

Did you uninstall the old driver first?

That's too bad. It worked for me, but I was using the Vista version of the driver.
