Why No Eraser / Middle Mouse Click Mapping??
Dear Wacom Overlords:
Can you please add an option to map the eraser to a middle click? You can map the nib to a middle click, you can map the side buttons to a middle click, you can map express keys to a middle click. You can map literally every single key to a middle click except the eraser.
In 3D/CAD programs the eraser is useless. But you know what would be useful there? A middle click, which in most such applications is used to pan. Oh, how amazing it would be to simply flip my pen over and pan gracefully across my screen...*looks off wistfully into the distance*
As is, mapping the eraser to a right click will orbit/rotate in most programs, which is not entirely unhelpful. But there are other devices that can be used to orbit. Middle clicks/pans are harder to map (and in some cases, such as Sketchup, impossible,) leaving us with few options. Please, please give us one.

Same here. It's silly that some things are just missing from the wacom center app.
All controls that can be mapped should be options in every control surface that is mappable.
I wonder if there's a third party software out there that could detect the pen and swap middle and right clicks when it's the peripheral being used, but I'd really rather not go through the trouble of having to find one and run it every single time I want to use my tablet.0
