What gets me is that when I do get jaggies, the ink always--ALWAYS--traces
to the left of my stylus--never to the right-hand side of the stylus. If
jaggies are being caused by pressure from the case on the right edge of the
screen, touching the right-hand side would move the ink to the RIGHT, not
the left.
Also, I get jaggies when I don't touch the case at all with my right hand,
but lightly touch the case with a finger on my left hand--that's what makes
me think it's partly voltage/chassis ground related.
Email me offlist (dougparker_at_progressdata.com) and I'll summarize to
the list:
What's the list's experience on this--when you get jaggies does your ink
trail off to the left or right?
Anyone for up and down?
