I've downloaded and installed inkscape for Windows, and my sis is using a graphics tablet that Inkscape recognises as an Aiptek pressure tablet. I've had a look at the device input menu, and tried to find how to set pressure sensitivity, but no luck!
I know the tablet has pressure sensitivity, but I don't know how to enable it with Inkscape.
Anyone know how to get it working?
 
Are the right drivers installed? Never heard of Aiptek.
 
The drivers should be installed, as pressure sensitivity was working with Paint.NET. Inkscape detects it as an Aiptek, and its a fairly cheap Capax branded gtablet; Vista Pad, model number WCK-C121-HT.
I've heard of people getting cheap graphics tablets fully working under Linux, but not much info on Windows. I'll have a look to see if there are any other drivers to install though.
