Enable 'pen pressure' in After Effects for SurfaceBook Stylus?

[grahamj68223008]

Hi. Does anyone know how to enable 'pen pressure' in AE for using the Microsoft stylus that comes with the SurfaceBook?

The stylus words well as a 'brush tool' other than I can't vary the pressure.  But I have tested the stylus on the Surface site

and on other non-Adobe CC applications and the pressure seems to be working.  Having same problem in Photoshop, too.

I am running Windows 10 on a 2016 SurfaceBook and have the latest Adobe CC downloads for all apps. Thank you in adv.

Adobe only supports Wacom pressure sensitivity, which this pen is not. Everything else is handled by the emulation in the tablet's driver, which may need updating or tweaking in some form. Since those issues existed with older Surface's as well, you should be able to find some guidance on the web.
