    hi everyone. just recently bought a wacom bamboo tablet. very nice. but one thing i am experiencing is that when i draw fast on a website such as iscribble.net, it'll jump. it'll jump from one dot to the other dot forming a line instead of two individual dots. this starts to become a problem when i start to sketch. this doesnt happen on photoshop or anything so its like an online thing. so is there something in the wacom tools i should disable? if anyone else is experiencing this please let me know thanks :D

    My guess would be bandwidth - not enough data is sent to the website.
    Or its not send frequently enough: e.g. every 10 seconds instead of every 0,5 seconds (absurd numbers, I know, just to demonstrate the idea)

    You can try mouse mode instead of tablet mode it may not be compatible with it, also make sure your lifting the pen high enough to deactivate it.

    I'll give them a shot. Before it was literally impossible to do anything until i turned off the "press and hold" and it acts like a right click. So it became smoother, but i still get this glitch that it jumps. I think its on a problem with bandwidth.
