Drawing Tablets
Drawing tablets, also known as pen tablets, are computer input devices that let you draw with a stylus (pen). With WorkSpaces Applications, you can connect a drawing tablet, such as a Wacom drawing tablet, to your local computer and use the tablet with your streaming applications.
Following are requirements and considerations for using drawing tablets with your streaming applications.
To use this feature, you must connect to WorkSpaces Applications by using the WorkSpaces Applications client, or through the Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox browsers only.
The applications that you stream must support Windows Ink technology. For more information, see Pen interactions and Windows Ink in Windows apps
. Depending on the streaming applications that you use, your drawing tablet might require USB redirection to function as expected. This is because some applications, such as GIMP, require USB redirection to support pressure sensitivity. If this is the case for your streaming applications, you must connect to WorkSpaces Applications by using the WorkSpaces Applications client and share the drawing tablet with your streaming session.
This feature is not supported on Chromebooks.
To get started with using a drawing tablet during your application streaming sessions, connect your drawing tablet to your local computer with USB, share the device with WorkSpaces Applications if required for pressure sensitivity detection, and then start an WorkSpaces Applications streaming session. You can use the WorkSpaces Applications client or a supported web browser to start a streaming session.
