System Information
Windows 10
Surface Laptop

Blender Version
Broken: both 2.79b and 2.8 build Hash:492dbae4d1a
Worked: /

Short description of error
Pressure sensitivity from Surface Pen simply doesn't register in Blender. Works in other apps like Sketchbook Pro and various Windows 10 Ink apps like Sketch, OneNote, Sticky notes

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Need Surface Laptop (but I believe it's the case with other Surface devices, based on other bugs reported here). No special steps required, doesn't work in texture paint, grease pencil, and sculpting.

@pepe-school-land iirc, you are using a surface tablet with Blender? are you aware of anything special about that topic?

Otherwise I guess we'll need a dev with that hardware to investigate and fix (iirc microsoft changed some stuff re tablet/pen access some times ago, though I thought we had that integrated…).

Yes, I use Blender in surface book 2 with same issue and after instaling Wintab_x64_1.0.0.20 driver the pressure works (yay!) but Blender have some
problems manage this kind of pen devices, like this one https://developer.blender.org/T55589 the problem is that pen event is not received for the first movements of the pen and only after a while.
this task appear closed but still happening.
