Summary:

When using a pressure sensitive input device (i.e Wacom/nTrig pen) the pressure isn´t recorded

Steps to reproduce:

  • open Inkscape
  • press p to use the pen
  • start drawing with a stylus or pen (which is working with 1.4)
  • try variations in pressure

What happened?

the line/scribble is recorded but line width stays the same. (even after altering line width, toggle pressure sensitivity on/off
