Surface Pro 3 Wavy diagonal lines when inking

Anonymous

I've noticed a problem with my surface pro 3 that I have not been able to work around. When I draw a slow diagonal line, it comes out very wavy and jagged. If I quickly draw a diagonal, it seems ok. Has anyone else seen this, is there a fix for it? seems to happen in every application, so it strikes me as potential hardware.

I returned my surface for this same reason. Somewhere I have read Microsoft staff acknowledging that this is an inherent limitation of n-trig capacitive technology.

So don't expect a fix for this.

This is a problem that you cant stop noticing since the first time you realize about it. I wish Microsoft would still use Wacom tech, surface would be a wonderful product then and I still would have mine.

This is still a problem, with the SP 2017. Identical to the early posts.
