Sketch handwriting displays poorly

While writing in Sketch my handwriting is borderline unreadable. I know what you're saying, "Probably user error." However, when I use the handwriting feature on OneNote with my tablet it looks just as good as my normal writing on paper. Any idea why it displays poorly on iFly but not other apps.

I can slow down and make it a bit more readable, but when I am trying to write down the ATIS if I slow down I have to listen twice. I'm still a student pilow, so I'm not dealing with ATC yet, but that is bound to only make things worse for me.

Thanks

Glenn

Re: Sketch handwriting displays poorly

I feel your pain. This behavior was observed on some Android devices during beta testing for that feature, and AP tried to improve the performance but eventually said "that's as good as we can get it". Like you, I was able to draw smoothly in other drawing apps on my tablets, but the sketch function in iFly was only barely useable.

Re: Sketch handwriting displays poorly

I have to agree with you on the barely usable part. I have gone back to paper at this point.
