We don't support XP Pen tablets. We only support Wacom tablets and Surface devices.

The only 3rd party tablet that may work is "Huion" models. I have not been able to confirm if it works though....

thx for reply. why don't you support it?

on amazon.it it's the best product I can buy for that price, with the best review ratio. I mean I really wish to buy one of them, if I can post a link you can understand what I mean looking at the reviews on the amazon page: https://www.amazon.it/Tavoletta-Grafica-Pollici-Pressione-Personalizzabili/product-reviews/B077SHZ59N/ref=dpx_acr_txt?showViewpoints=1

it have more pressure leveles that intuos 8k vs 2k. more buttons 8 instead than 4, less price.

looks awesome. I wish to replace my old wacom bamboo (that have no buttons on the tablet so is very bad for many situations). And this one seems the best.

I already use Sketchbook on my tablet and I wish to continue draw on PC with the same software if possible. will you support it in future updates please?

We have worked with Wacom and MIcrosoft and have integrated their SDK into the product.

I have an XP-Pen Deco3 and so far it works with Sketchbook 8.6.0 with zero issues, including mapped shortcut keys and dial key, as well as pressure sensitivity. However, unlike Photoshop, I need to select the "Windows Ink" option for the XP-Pen within the control panel in order for the pressure sensitivity to work. So the only small issue is that I need to either select or deselect the Windows Ink option when moving between these 2 applications, which is not a big deal. My operating system is Windows 10.

Exactly, XP Pen Deco 01 cost $59,99 versus Wacom Intuos Pro which cost $369.72 as of this writing May 2019. They are both very similar in size and feature with 8k pen pressure level, yet HUGE price difference. I watched XP Pen reviews on youtube, people say good stuff about them. I think Autodesk should take this into consideration and start to support it officially. I would buy xp pen over wacom these days.
