Surface Pro 4 now gains Surface Dial on-screen support

Microsoft is giving some love to the venerable Surface Pro 4. This 2-in-1 PC can now use the Surface Dial as an on screen accessory. Surfae Dial was already supported by all Surface devices, including Surface Pro 4, but the latest update allows creatives to prop the dial on their Surface Pro display for more immersive control.

“We’ve released new updates for Surface Pro 4 devices,” Microsoft’s Brandon Records announced last night. “These updates include new drivers for Surface Dial Detection, Surface Digitizer Integration, Surface Touch, and Surface Touch Servicing ML which enable on-screen support for Surface Dial and resolve certain ghost/phantom touch issues.” Update should be rolling out shortly via Windows 10's Software Update.
