    Windows 11 and Snip/Whiteboard

    I've used surfaces for years for instructional and meeting settings in the engineering world. My most common use case is (was) grabbing a full screen snip into the whiteboard for analysis, calculations, lecturing, drawing, etc. It was awesome to at any moment be able to click a pen/stylus...

    Surface Pen stopped working but the eraser works.

    Hi everyone. So I have a Surface Pro 8 I got for my birthday and it works like a charm. I have a Slim 2 Pen I use for drawing and today, while I was drawing, the pen just stopped working which was weird. It just stopped in the middle of drawing. The pen battery is in the 90's and it's paired...

    Photoshop zoom and free transform activated when using pen

    I was drawing in the latest version of Photoshop using the pen and the keyboard folded over. Sometimes when using the pen, zoom is activated and the image zooms in. Sometimes the free transform tool is activated and the drawing rotates. I haven't figured out what's causing this. Are there...

    I got the latest surface pen from my friend (4 or 5 I'm not sure, the one without the clip) and Surface pro 7 i5. Its tip doesn't work. I can move the cursor with the top eraser button, and when paired and connected, the button works well. Things I tried: - unpair and pair back, - change the...

    Surface pen usage

    Help, I’ve got a problem. When I want to use my pen in Office 365 Word on my Surface, I first have to select a pen. When done writing (and wanting to scroll or zoom) I first have to unselect pen. Otherwise I apply ink with my fingers. When starting to write again, same procedure. In trying to...

    Solved Pen/Stylus not working after upgrade to Win 10 1903

    I inherited an SP4 without power supply or pen/stylus. I purchased a replacement power supply and pen. The power supply works great. The pen worked at first, but when I upgraded the SP4 to Win 10 1903 (from 1703) the pen stopped working. The pen is a generic pen, probably from China and when it...

    2 separate pens won't ink on SP3

    Is what it sounds like. A few weeks ago, my Surface Pro 3 stopped recording input from the surface pen from the pen tip at all. No tracking, no ink, basically records no input from the pen tip, generally, on-screen as well as within programs including Paint 3D and OneNote. However, the pen...

    Part came off of Surface 4 Pen? Does it matter?

    Using this image as an example. Not the right click button, but the other rectangular part that's on the dark gray side. This popped up and seems to have been held on with a cheap adhesive and a magnet. Does this matter? Does it make any difference if it's attached? Should I... Should I just...

    Drawing in Illustrator

    The problem is, I can't get sharp edges on brushes when I draw with my pen directly on my screen. I get these round edges and after a few hours fighting with the brush settings I finally realised that the sharp edges are possible but you need to add some black magic and sorcery. As you can see...

    Scrolling with pen

    I swear i've seen the option to turn off the scrolling with pen somewhere but i cant find it now :/ I cant drag layers on Manga Studio 5 because the pen wants to scroll the panel instead of dragging the layer! This update starting to give me more problems than its worth!!

    Flipped orientation - Pen offset (Bug)

    I use my Surface Book (non Performance Base) for a while and I started to use the pen. I noticed a very annoying thing: When I use the book in the flipped mode (Picture), there is an noticable offset between pen and cursor (around a half cm, cursor more right). In normal orientation the offset...
