Re: Pressure sensitive Graphics tablet

(I'm not sure about pressure sensitivity support on Mac at all, though) Pressure sensitivity in general works ok with the official (X11-based) Inkscape packages (0.91, 0.92.2), at least with a Wacom tablet (tested with a Bamboo CTH-470 on Mac OS X Lion) if the tablet pen is enabled accordingly (set...
