Surface Pro 3 Wavy diagonal lines when inking

.............

Hey this is StevieB, working on it… we noticed this happening in a very specific instance. Likely when you draw really slow and across the diagonal of the screen… so it is quote a specific instance specific. It is really hard to a draw a straight line without the use of a ruler or the digitizer picking up the jitter in your hands… so that is why people use a ruler to do this test.. but the ruler messes up the signal as it capacitivly couples . Most touch sensors are oriented as a grid, when you draw across the diagonal the touch controller has to interpolate position of the pen and linearize its path. As for active capacitive digitizer we’re the best out there! But we can do better. One of the improvement just involves boosting the voltage of the pen. So I cannot give you a timeline, but just know things are in the hopper. Other digitizer techs have other artifacts and issues, they don’t do linearization as well, and have accuracy issues. Pen is really important to us, and our best people are really focused on making and maintaining it to be awesome and the most realistic digital pen experience in any tablet!

Ibeas hoping that my post would be helpful. I did not remove it. I love my surfacebook but I really think the stylus has a way to go, its manageable, but my older enabled helix 1 is way wleisier to draw on. The sceen tho on the surfacebook is incredible and I love the high resolution.

1. Please fix wavy diagonals and dont delete this post.2. Please allow hover right click like you can on wacom its literally twice as easy.
2. Please have a rocker or two EASY TO PRESS buttonsby the tip that can be programmable to whatever. I use them for space a, alt, control undo depending on my program
3. If you want bonis points for all serious artists also provide tilt sensitivity

For those of you suffering wavy lines some help can be from lazymouse plug-ins. Krita and manga studio and zbrush have this built in along with tvpaont. Search my name and concept art if you want to see how i draw with a surfacebook

Several posts have been deleted from this thread, including a great post by ScottVigil on February 27th. I sitll have it in my email, so either he deleted it himself or MS deleted it. Either way, I'm fairly certain there isn't going to be an official response to this thread, since it's been ignored for nearly two years now.
