Anyone had success using the drawing portion of the tablet on another pc?
I have the windows version of the yoga book if that helps
VirtualTablet
Concept VirtualTablet is software application set that receives stylus pen input from tablet devices such as Samsung Slate 7, Galaxy Note, Ativ, and Microsoft Surface and then transfer these input …

I was wondering if it is possible to connect your phone to the PC and use it as a pen interface for PC like the WACOM tablets used by graphic designers...(though i think that we wont get touch intensity)

try that, i'm at school and cant watch it.
use autodesk sketch book mobile to draw directly on the phone. there is an app to control the mouse pointer with the phone via wifi but it will not be useful.
MSFT was annotating PDFs in their Reader app during the presentation of the Surface PRO. I tried it on my Surface RT, but couldn't find a way.
Did they use some unreleased preview version or has anyone found a way to annotate PDFs ? I couldn't find any other Readers in the Store either.

I don't know about Annotating PDFs in Microsoft Reader but Adobe reader is available in the Store, & I imagine that you should be able to get Adobe website Reader from the Adobe website as well.

The store just links to the Desktop app which I cant install on Win RT. Normal notes work just fine (doubleclick to select text), but I cant get touch input (capacitive stylus) to work.
Windows can't tell the difference between a finger and a capacitive stylus; you need a digitizer stylus for it to be recognized as pen input. I think the annotations thing may only be for pen input, sadly. It works great on my (old) digitizer-but-non-touchscreen tablet (which I upgraded to Win8) but like you, I couldn't make it work on my Surface RT.

Yeah to a touchscreen a stylus is just a finger, but if you have a Wacom digitizer on the screen with a pen (like thinkpad x tablets or the galaxy note series, Samsung x86 slates) then there is very precise, pressure sensitive input that is read differently by the computer.

Hey,
I have XPS10, RT-baset tablet. When I'm at home, I'm often using Remote desktop into my x86 laptop running 8.0 Pro x64. It has no touch support, although using RDP there's 5 finger multitouch from tablet.
The only problem comes with touch keyboard. RDP forces to use "remote" touch keyboard. But it appears much smaller - it uses only around 1/3 height of screen, when RT one is almost half of it.
I think it's Metro DPI related problem, there's even article about is in MS KB:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2824027
But setting this value in registry changes nothing. When I open touch keyboard on my 22" (non touch, but who cares) LCD, it has the same physical(!) dimensions as on XPS10, but when I connect via RDP it still remains small.
Do anybody else have the same behavior here? It should be visible when connecting any two devices that has some Win8 edition and different physical DPI.
Hi fellow xda developers,
My team and myself want to create an app that uses an SPEN.
Now I've got a few questions about this topic.
1) Is there even a way of making use of the SPEN in Xamarin or Android Studio or any other freeware?
2) We want to use a samsung galaxy note pro 12.2 for our work. Does the system recognize pen input as pen input or does it recognize pen input as finger input?
I'm not quite sure if this is the right forum, but I figured this would be the right place to ask. I'm using a windows 10 tablet with an n-trig digitizer, so I went out and got a surface pen. It works great! but I am unable to remap the keys present on the pen. Upon doing some research, the keys are remapped through the surface hub app, however, when I try to install this app, it fails to load at all, saying that the app is designed for surface computers only.
It seems at one time, Microsoft had planned to release a version of this app for non-surface computers, but it seems those plans have fallen through the cracks. Would it be possible to modify the current Surface hub app into thinking that I have a surface pc? If not, maybe someone else has experience with using a surface pen on a non-surface pc, and could point me in the right direction?
Thank you.
