SupportsPressureIndicates that the tablet device can detect the amount of pressure the user applies when using the stylus. 

This enumeration has a FlagsAttribute attribute that allows a bitwise combination of its member values.

The following example demonstrates how to determine the hardware capabilities of a tablet device.

if ((Tablet.CurrentTabletDevice.TabletHardwareCapabilities
   & TabletHardwareCapabilities.SupportsPressure) ==
     TabletHardwareCapabilities.SupportsPressure)
{
    textbox1.AppendText("The tablet can detect the pressure of the teblet pen.");
}
