Can confirm, pen pressure doesn't work for me unless tablet API is set to Windows Ink, but then if I use Windows Ink, stylus shortcuts such as middle click stop working, making navigation in the viewport impossible

Tablet is Wacom One M

Hi, thanks for the report. Does this happen with fresh builds?: https://builder.blender.org/download/daily

Could you please add image or short video to show the differences between broken and working version?

@PrototypeNM1 , can you please check this?

The symptoms of this issue should be resolved by 60c0b79256, but there remains an underlying issue that needs further investigation. Lack of pen pressure was an indicator that Wintab was falling back to low frequency input, which can result in jagged lines when drawing.

@gabbitt could you repeat the bug by running blender.exe --debug-wintab with this build, copy the system console to this link, and link the paste in a reply to this report?

Just a note: this bug report doesn't happen in the main release of Blender because of fallback that is hiding it. We'd still like to fix this properly because the fallback causes jagged lines when drawing.

Hey, I have the same problem on macOS (13.0.1) with an XP Pen Artist 16 (2nd gen). Pressure sensitivity works in other applications, like Krita, and in the pen's debugger, but not in Blender 3.3.1.

Any hints on what to try out or how I can provide more details would be appreciated!

@FuzzyHerbivore You'd need to open a new issue, as this issue was specific to Windows.
