Venue Pro 11 - Stylus doesn't work properly in Painter, Photoshop

Just got my Venue Pro 11 on Wednesday and so far I'm disappointed with the stylus - I've installed the firmware update available on the support site, but still having some problems with the stylus not tracking quite properly.

I've also found that the pressure sensitivity is not recognized in apps such as Corel Painter and Adobe Photoshop.  Can this information be passed along to Synaptec so they can work on updating the drivers?  Wacom initially had this problem and fixed it with a driver update on Surface and the Latitude 10.

    Thanks, this is a separate issue - the pressure control works in apps suuuch as Art Rage and Sketchbook, the Wacom stylus had the same problem until Wacom updated their driver.

    Serious problems with quality control on seating of the components inside the active stylus.

    The good news is that it's something you can try fixing yourself:

    Beyond that, Dell has been stringing us out with promises of a fixed version in some nebulously defined near future.
