Surface 3: running windows 8.1 guest

Post by fpneves »

Hello,

I have a surface 3 and I'm trying to run windows 8.1 guest VM on windows 8.1 host.

If i configure the pointing device as "USB Tablet", the pen stylus work as usual but i cant do gestures (scroll, swipe, drag, etc.)

If i configure the pointing device as "USB Multi-touch Tablet", i can do gestures but this time the pen stylus dont work (stylus is detected but i cant do nothing with it inside the VM).

How can i get both inputs (stylus+gestures) working in the VM as i have in the windows 8.1 host ?

Thanks

As a guess I imagine having both function isn't implimented yet.
