Wacom Sensitivity not working, PS CC
polycounter lvl 13
Anyone else been having problem with their Wacoms of late?
I have the Pro, and over the last few weeks i've been noticing the pressure sensitivity in Photoshop play up.
Like small instances where it turns off for a second, but now its gone one step further, the pressure sensitivity doesn't work at all in Photoshop.
It works in every other applicable application.
Anyone know of a fix?

I'm using the intuos pro, i've noticed these errors across multiple machines as well.
*edit, Okay a full Wacom re installed has gotten sensitivity back. BUT
it only works if windows ink is enabled, literally it was all working like smooth gravy this morning...
Photoshop CC 2014 changes stylus use to use Microsoft system API's, with these API's you need to have Windows Ink enabled. These API's give better stroke results and improve the out of the box experience for users using Windows tablet/convertible devices. If you want to go back to the old WinTab implementation of previous versions do the following:
Create a file that contains instructions to revert to the WinTab functionality.
Create a text file in a text editor such as Notepad.
Type in the following lines:
# Use WinTab
UseSystemStylus 0
Save the file as a plain text file named PSUserConfig.txt, and save the file into the Photoshop settings folder: C:\Users\[User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 Settings\.
To turn off the gestalt's functionality, delete the PSUSerConfig.txt file. Or, move it to a different folder if it doesn't contain any other commands, or change the lines so they read:
# Use Win8 native tablet support
UseSystemStylus 1
