(Hopefully I’m not missing a setting) I was wondering if there were any plans to add a feature to allow users use a touchscreen computer to draw using a stylus, (Not the active pen, I believe those already work), but just the plain touchscreen. It would be great to see it work in a similar way to one note works with the touch to draw button.

Hi @Khord, do you mean using the touchscreen in a Surface-like (Windows tablet) computer? The latest update added support to scroll/zoom with fingers, but you have to still use the pen to draw, it would be nice to have a mode to draw with the finger (in v1.2.4 you can already put pixels justing tapping the screen, but regular clicks on widgets are not working, which is the most critical thing to fix)

Yes that’s exactly what I’m talking about, using finger (or finger equivalent tools), to draw. I can tap to put pixels, but it would be nice to be able to just draw a line with my finger and have it draw a line! Thanks for the quick speedy response!
