I'm using Hp rechargeable mpp 2.0 tilt pen, And there's a major problem.
I can not use right click drag. most of programs needed to use right click and drag, but this pen seems like right click is not persisted and it is just programmed as one single click input. Moreover, because of this problem, some old program doesn't even recognize this input as right click! this problem must be fixed.
I bought x360 for my job, and now I'm struggling because of this problem. It's frustrating that right click is not persisted even I keep pressing the button.

@akem8, Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
Thank you for your valuable feedback, we shall share this with the relevant team internally.
Meanwhile, Things You Can Try
Check HP Pen Control App (if available)
- If available, see if it allows you to remap the side buttons or adjust click-and-hold behavior.
Try Windows Ink Settings
- Go to Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Pen & Windows Ink
- Disable options like:
- Show visual effects
- Use pen as a mouse
- This doesn’t directly solve the issue but can remove interference from the Windows Ink layer which sometimes affects legacy software input.
Install Wacom Feel Driver (for AES pens)
This is a bit of a workaround, but since the MPP 2.0 pen uses Microsoft Pen Protocol (MPP), it shares some hardware traits with Wacom AES pens.
Installing the Wacom Feel IT driver improves pen input behavior (including press-and-hold right clicks).
Third-Party Tools (AutoHotKey workaround)
You can try using AutoHotKey to simulate a right-click-and-hold behavior when the pen button is pressed:
; Sample AHK script to simulate right-click hold
~RButton::
MouseClick, Right, , , , D ; D = down
KeyWait, RButton
MouseClick, Right, , , , U ; U = up
return
This script makes right-click persist until the button is released. You might need to remap the pen’s button to “right click” if it's not working as RButton.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.

Thank you for helping me. It's glad to be considered internally. Hope this problem will be addressed.
beside gladness, there's one bad news. autohotkey is not working.
I think since this pen is mpp 2.0, pressing button can not be detected as input in AutoHotKey.
mpp2 input is not detacted as windows event as I know.
so it's hard to be addressed as third party programs.
