This has been bugging me for some time, perhaps since I got my Wacom intuos 3. When I draw using my stylus and the freehand tool I often seem to get areas where points are drawn on top of each other for no apparent reason. This doesn't seem to happen when using the mouse. (It also seems slightly worse Using xtreme pro)
This could just be my setup (and I have ordered a new PC). But out of curiosity does anyone else get this?
I have gotten that even with a mouse when using the brush tool and the slider set for the most points. It can really be a pain when you are trying to find the end of a line...:)
My problem occurs with the freehand smoothing set to the middle.
Squeaky,
Have you set up your tablet for use with XX in particular and not just used the standard settings for all applications? If not give it a try.
Press the 'END' key on your keybaord. It will highlight the end of the line.Quote:

Could it be related to the speed of your drawing movements?Quote:

Sorry Egg. I don't see how that would help. Surely that only changes the pressure sensitivity and mapping options?Quote:

In all probability it is just my machine if no one else is getting this.
Xtreme runs slow on it as it is (overburdoned power supply)
Not to worry. I have ordered a new machine
