Brush Pressure in Flash CC

Hi,

So I've installed Flash Professional CC and honestly I'm enjoying so far, although there are some features that didn't please me like slow respond when using brush when using Cintiq 13HD. I also noticed that when I use the brush with Cintiq, the button for brush pressure is missing. I need to know how can I enable brush pressure in Flash CC. Any idea?

Thanks.

Regards,

Mohammad Ahmed Fikree

Actually never mind I've solved the problem apparently. In case anyone else has similar problems here's what I did:

1 go to Control Panel>Administrative tools>Services

2 find Tablet PC Input Service

3 right click and select Stop

(optional)

4. double click Tablet PC Input Service

5. go to Startup Type and select Disable or Manual.

This made the Use Pressure function suddenly appear and it works like a charm.

Pressure and tilt options for brush do not come up till you place your pen on the tablet and click on the stage.Once clicked they start appearing ,sometimes these options are hidden, you can resize your tools panel to see the options.And slow response is a known issue and we are tracking it.You can refer to this thread for more details :http://forums.adobe.com/message/5454376#5454376.

Hi ,

That's great ,but  if it is working with legacy drivers it should work with latest drivers also . your latest drivers might get corrupted ,can you please uninstall the present drivers and install latest drivers and try once ?because if installed drivers are corrupted we would face this issues some times .

Thanks!

I am seeing this problem in Windows 10 recently.

Win 10

Flash CC 15.0.1.179

Wacom Cintiq 13HD (monitor ...not tablet)

Wacom Driver 6.3.15-1

The problem is ONLY with Flash. The pressure is recognized in the Wacom callibration tool and in all other programs.

I was able to fix this by restarting my Wacom driver in Services. Both icons now appear.

However, I just purchased a Surface Pro 3 and cannot get either function to appear while using Flash.

Hi,

Flash CC uses Wintab driver to detect a pressure and surface pro doesn't comes up with a pre-installed Wintab drivers.

To install the Wintab driver for Surface Pro 3:

1. Open your browser and go to the Surface software, firmware, and drivers page on the Microsoft Download Center.

2. Select Download.

3. Scroll to the bottom of the list, select the checkbox for the .zip file that starts with Wintab, and select Next.

4. Select Open.

5. Extract the files from the .zip file, double-click to run the file WinTab_Setup_x64.exe, and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

Thanks!

To make them appear with my Cintiq, I went to services, and restarted the Wacom Professional service driver. Then restarted Flash.

I'm using Windows 10 and a 22HD Cintiq.

I am not sure if this is relevant or not to the cause. I uninstalled and reinstalled the wacom drivers. Then I opted NOT to calibrate the cintiq. Now the pressure sensitivity is working again.

This is ridiculous.  I've had this problem on multiple computers and multiple tablets.  This is a common legacy issue that has yet to be formally addressed by Adobe's Flash team.  By contrast, I've never encountered this on any version of Photoshop.

I have tried everything above, Still got no pen pressure.
This seems like being a Flash bug only, as every other software (also Adobe Photoshop) works.


PLEASE FIX THIS ADOBE, -otherwise you have got a useless software for drawing/animating..
