The Return of Barrel Rotation

There has been an abundance of requests for the return of the art pen, in particular the barrel rotation feature, which is now standard with the Apple Pen Pro.   It's been a year since the communal plea for this feature has been expressed, and it was suggested that we be patient as you explore this possibility in future pens.   Can you please share if any progress has been made in making this possible.   As a long time Wacom user, I don't want to abandon this platform and and hopeful that you are attentive to the thousands of requests that this feature return.   Respectfuly, Irene Bowers

  Dear irene bowers, 
  Thank a lot for your interest on this matter. 
  At the moment there are no further details on the progress of our RnD for such a product. Also we typically do not discuss product development before we are ready to announce an actual product so even if I had some details, I'm afraid I would still need to wait for an official product release to be able to talk about it.

  Just my opinion, it's a shame to be kept in the dark about something so many Wacom customers need but have been waiting for years. Something that is now only available for the iPad, from Apple...

  Great news, The Art Pen 2 has been released, the bad news is it's not backward compatible, at least at this stage. Now for a campaign to include some of the older models of tablets and displays.
