Hi everyone,

With this release, we have enabled basic pen and touch support for XD on Windows as a companion to the mouse and keyboard.

You can find more info about the feature here:
https://theblog.adobe.com/february-update-adobe-xd/

We look forward to receiving your feedback.

Thanks,
Dan Tuhoarca

From our release blog post

> We have ambitious plans to offer full support for touch devices and pen input in XD. While we have made progress in this area, we are not ready yet to make those capabilities available in our public beta releases. Once we’ve delivered the core XD feature set for designing, prototyping and sharing user experiences, then we’ll enable touch and pen features for the Microsoft Surface family of products and other touch-enabled devices.

    Find a solution for W10 & Intuos :
    1) Turn off Windows Ink
    2) In the Intuos Touch Parameters > Standard gestures ("Gestes standard" in French) make sure the option "Drag and drop" is checked
    3) In the windows Pen parameters > Check "Allow me to use the pen like mouse..." and "Ignore touch input when i use the pen"

    Don't know if all of this is required but it's worked for me !

    I would like to use the shortcuts of the spacebar in combination with my wacom drawing tablet to move whithin my document.

    Now this only works if i turn of windows ink, in the wacom control center app. However this has an effect on using the pressure sensitivity on other apps.

    I tried to make an Application preference for XD in the wacom control center, but since XD is a windows UWP app, I can't acces it from this app.

    Thanks for the update Dan, I have just tried it out it's good that I can use a pen in my work, but for me it doesn't add much more functionality than was available with a mouse.

    I have documented an 'inking' feature request https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007-adobe-xd-feature-requests/suggestions/33323866-ink-tool which is where I expected the pen support to go.

    Touch and pen are not a 'nice to have' but a 'must have' feature in 2018. I have the new surface pro but the new stylus doesn't do anything in XD besides selecting the tools. The pen works perfectly in PhotoShop and Illustrator. Please make this a priority.

    Has anything been changed? Lenovo Yoga 720 here, really really really wanted pen support for XD. Really disappointing that it is not available. This is perfect program for clients and I defeat the purpose of touch screen,.....

    Marius, that worked fantastically. I can now use Xd with my Intuos P S Tablet.

    Still, this needs to be treated as a priority so Windows users don't have to rely on workarounds or hacky solutions.

    Hello there,

    Actually, there is a workaround for the Wacom users. Given the fact that you wouldn't need pressure sensitivity in XD you can uncheck "Use Windows Ink" on your Wacom Tablet Properties, Mapping tab.

    Hope this helps!

    Why not let us have temporary pen support for now, with an option checkbox to "emulate mouse clicks with Pen / Tablet?" I see hints that's exactly what's being done on the Mac side (such as oversensitivity to moves during taps). The disappointment is greater because XD is supposedly out of beta. Use of the pen/stylus is not a nice-to-have for UX designers who logged years into using Wacom and/or Windows Tablet PC. It's often an RSI issue and we simply cannot do our work with a mouse anymore. Please give us a timeline for enabling some form of this feature.

    how long can it take to just add the basic functionality like this? It's ironical how you promote this app on the screen of a surface pro or surface studio. why not be sincere here and use the old keyboard and mouse in your promotional emails?

    Do we known around when we can expect this update? I recently got a Wacom MobileStudio Pro, and I'd love to use it with Adobe XD on my long LIRR commute into NYC ;)
