Surface Pro Pen deadzone

Hi all,

Theres been a problem quite extensively reported in Microsoft forums about surface pen deadzone. You need to move the pen a certain distance before it starts working. Here is a good demonstration…

Some of this points to an issue with windows flicks, but I’ve noticed that other drawing software (eg photoshop, sketchbook) aren’t afflicted with the issue. This seems to suggest that the there is a way to get around the problem. Trouble is, no one currently seems to have answers.

Does anyone one have any input in the matter? I’d be very keen to hear it. It makes work in the otherwise brilliant surface a waste of time.

Cheers
