Hey folks,

I recently returned to Nomad.  
(6 months+of iPad return, fix, break, turn fix, return etc etc)

I remember an old odd thing I encountered from years ago — when using the paint tool, I tough the screen with pencil, but the cursor acts acts strangely

A short video to explain.  
Anyone know what’s up?

Many thanks!
