Broken: version: 2.92.0 Alpha, branch: master, commit date: 2020-12-14 16:29, hash: 010f44b855
Worked: 2.91.0 - hash : 0f45cab862

Short description of error
When using a table graphic that isn't using the Windows Ink tablet API, the middle click no longer work when navigating Blender (Pan, rotate, zoom)
When using the Automatic or Wintab option, pressing one of the pen button only register when the tip of the pen touch the screen/tablet.
It wasn't like that before. It is a Blender API issue
If I use Windows Ink, I loose the pen pressure, so this option is not valid

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
1- Use a table without the Windows Ink (Non-Wacom if possible)
2- Make sure it is windows ink is disable on the tablet driver

3- Open Blender
4- Go in the User Preferences

5- Use the Automatic/Wintab tablet API
4- Go in the 3D Viewport
3- Press the middle mouse button without the tip of the pen touching the screen/tablet
4- Viewport won't move

It does affect some Wacom tablet as well. I just tested it.

I just wonder - will this known bug be fixed for 2.92 final? I mean how are the chances of the bug to be fixed for 2.92?

This may be resolved by 3a1d1aaa86, could you check if the issue is present in nightly?

I checked and the bug is still there. Not working viewport navigation unless touching the surface of the tablet screen on wintab and no pen pressure when using windows ink. Quite a few buddies of mine have the same issue with 2.92 alpha (all of them are using huion tablets).

Broken: version: 2.92.0 Alpha, branch: master, commit date: 2020-12-20 17:48, hash: d283a093d6
Worked: 2.91 stable

I used to have "middle mouseclick" on one of my wacom pen buttons to zoom and orbit without pressing the pen on the table - nowadays, after startup, that only works if i press the button and press on the tablet which is undesired behaviour (i.e. click with the pentip) - however, when i switch applications, to chrome, firefox or a working blender version, sometimes the desired behaviour (having the pen midair and orbiting while pressing button) is back. But only sometimes, no clear workaround. Windows Ink has no clear influence on this behaviour.
