I have the same problem! My wacom tablet works but doesn't recognize the pressure, but my hp pens which I desperately need to work seem to be recognized but just don't leave trace when drawing or using select tools etc.

Hi there,

Sorry that the pen tool in Photoshop doesn't let you draw as the Brush options panel pops up.

Could you please let us know the version of Photoshop you're using and the operating system you're working on? Which Pen and tablet are you using to draw in Photoshop?

Also, please take a look at this article https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/tablet-support-faq-photoshop.html#RecommendedsettingsforusingatabletwithPhotoshop and let us know if that helps.

Thanks,

Akash
