Spectre x360-13-4009na
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

 

Bought two different stylus' designed for capacitive touch screens, but neither works properly with my new x360 for drawing lines. Get dashed not a continuous line.

 

Reading recent posts here and elsewhere seems even HP does not makea stylus that works properly when drawing lines. Many report the Dell Active stylus works well, but at least one report says it stops working with Windows 10.

 

Is there anyone running Windows 10 on a Spectre x360 who has a stylus drawing lines properly ?

just found this in another post regarding the presure sensitivity for the hp stylus

 

quote...

 

The HP Active Stylus does not support any levels of pressure sensitivity. Because the stylus is activate by pressing the tip, the tips acts as an on/off "button" only.

 

The Dell Active Stylus (newer silver and black version, part number 750-AAGN) does provide levels of pressure sensitivity, and works great with the Spectre (at least for the brief testing period I used the Spectre).

......

 

Im going to go buy the dell stylus tomorrow

Does your Dell stylus still work after the recent update? Mine has stopped working and is there a driver to correct this?

HP Recommended
