Assigning Venue Stylus button actions (In one note specifically)
I am loving my new stylus and Venue 8, however I am looking for a way to get it so when i use one note the top button on the stylus is always the eraser... It is annoying to have to click on eraser and then back to a pen every time. Please help me with this.

This is apparently an issue with OneNote 2013, not the stylus itself (people are complaining about the same thing with wacom/N-trig styluses as well). In the metro app the eraser button works fine, in Word the eraser button works fine, but OneNote 2013 has a bug where the button doesn't work. I'd love to hear if anyone has found a way to remedy this?

I believe the manual states that button function and mapping is program dependant. Dell could definitely do this as a component of a driver or in the next firmware update (well, a driver for sure, I'm not actually sure how firmware differs with that sort of thing). In the mean time, I wonder if it would be possible for someone to write a simple background program to make this happen?

it would be really interesting to know whether (and how) or whether not it is possible to assign any specific keyboard button/function to the 2 stylus buttons in general (like you can do with a lot of mices nowadays). so far i haven't found an answer although dell clearly said you can do this. in my case i would like to bind the DEL and ESC buttons to my two stylus buttons as i use those two very often.
