    Description

      Qt doesn't detect tablets automatically anymore, I have to add "-platform windows:nowmpointer" to the command line to get QTabletEvents to be sent again.

      This is the commit that I think broke it: https://github.com/qt/qtbase/commit/20d6dac63c25d227ed5315801e3e853ee78ec248

      Before this change QWindowsTabletSupport::create() used to always be called and after that it doesn't get called unless initPointer fails.

      The Qt6 code seems to work the same way so I believe the bug is still there.
