N Trig Pen Buttons Help!

Hey Everyone,

I just got my Duo 13 yesterday and I gotta say that this is one hell of an awesome machine. The screen is phenomenal, the battery life is amazing and the keyboard/mouse are surprisingly useable.

There is one giant issue for me though and that is the "Configurable" buttons on the pen. I basically require that one of the buttons be configured to act as the spacebar being pressed down. So a simple keystroke mapped to one of the two buttons and we are good to go.

From what I can find these "Configurable" buttons aren't actually configurable. When I first got my machine I could choose to turn off the program launching when the buttons are pressed, where after I did a couple system updates I lost this option. So im really hoping someone on here has had some success with configuring these buttons b/c this may very well be a deal breaker for me.

I was able to pretty easily get this done when using the Wacom stylus on the surface pro 2, so I wasn't expecting this to be an impossible feat. If im missing something I would really appreciate the help b/c I truly love this machine so far.

If you know anyone who has been successful with this or if you would know how i could get what the keystroke would be recognized on the system level that would be amazing. I've tried out a couple of keystroke mappers and havent be able to get the pen + button held down to act as anything but the left click.


Note- Something interesting i've found involves my use with the preinstalled Artrage Studio Pro where holding down the lower pen button allows you to navigate the page. This is the exact interaction that I am trying to replicate in a tool i use called Axure. With a Wacom pen i am able to map the button to the spacebar key, however being able to map a key to the button seems to be much more difficult with these Ntrig pens.


Thanks!
