[NTLK] HWR...has anyone ever noticed..

Ok, this is going to be hard to explain, but I'll try. I've owned several
2x00 devices over the years. It seems they all have this particular bug in
the HWR or touchscreen driver that ignores some strokes of the stylus,
especially when a letter starts with a downward stroke. The letters "t" "l"
"i" "k", etc are the most common I have problems with. Perhaps others have
noticed this??

Now, what just occured to me is that this really only occurs with staionary
or OS dialog boxes which has line spacing smaller than the default notepad's
stationary. Like some dialog boxes, or the mail stationary that comes with
Eudora Pro. It would appear that any stationary with line spacing smaller
than say .25" (a guess a what the notepads stationary is) will envoke this
problem. Can anyone confirm this?

If this turns out to be the case, would it be possible to change effected
stationary extentions to have larger line spacing? A hack if you will.

Thanks,

Bart
