Hello Ron,

Can you check to see if there is any updated firmware for the Onyx Boox Note 2? I am using the latest libraries from Onyx, so I'm not sure why you are seeing that behavior. Note that if you go into the annotation settings and you disable stylus mode, you probably won't encounter that horrible slow-motion drawing, but then you also won't be able to use the fast drawing mode with the pen tool. If you don't really need to write quickly with the pen tool, then this may be an acceptable workaround for now. The same code and library is used for all the Onyx devices, so it's very strange that this is only affecting the Note 2 and not the Lumi or Max tablets. 

As a side note, you said you aren't using the normal stylus that came with the Boox Note 2. If you switch to using that stylus, does the same problem occur?

Thanks,
Mike

Hi, Mike!

It appears to have been a temporary aberration. I used it again later that day for a different rehearsal; when we were finished, I grabbed my stylus to see if the problem was still there... and it wasn't. ?‍♂️ There's nothing more maddening that an issue that only manifests itself when you absolutely 100% need it *not* to.

For the record, while it was still happening (which was across at least two hours, as it was no less than a half hour between my leaving school & arriving at work; probably more like 45 minutes), the stylus that came with PadMu didn't work any better. Which brings up another issues... it's a bit like owning a Samsung phone. PadMu has their own proprietary OS, so any firmware updates go through them first (like Galaxy Android updates). <sigh> But I have received one since I purchased the device; less than a year ago. At some point, I intend to replace it with a stock Onyx; maybe a Note 3, but it depends... as I ain't buying nothin' til some of my larger theatre gigs start coming back. My two choirs are better than nothing, but they barely keep the car repaired!

Thanx for the troubleshooting tips! Best thing that came of this: I now know how to turn off the damn disc menu! ?
