I bought a stylus pen for using with my new laptop (HP Pavilion x360 14-cd0008sa). I found that when I used it with window mode (unflip), it worked well. However, when I filped the screen (360 Degree) to use as whether tablet mode or window mode, the lines was wobbly and unstable as attached picture. Please suggest.
PS: I tried many program to draw the line or picture but has the same result.

Welcome to HP Forums,
This is a great place to get support, find answers and tips,
Thank you for posting your query, I'll be more than glad to help you out 🙂
I see that your experiencing difficulties using HP stylus in tablet mode.
If the stylus is skipping on the screen, the stylus tip surface area might be too small to be detected by the screen. A fine-pointed, precision stylus is only available on computer models that work with an active (digital) stylus.
Refer this Article for more information on Touch Screen Stylus Pen Is Inaccurate or Stops Working.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.

Thank you for your help. However my issue is unsolved yet.
This issue happen only when I flip the screen to 360 degree. If I use the active pen with normal laptop position (without flip)
,it work fine. Please suggest.
