N96 cannot scribble any more

machinogodzilla · 11-10-2018, 02:29 PM

Hello,

Out of the blue I cannot scribble on PDF documents any more. This is the first time I'm having this problem with my N96ML.

Interestingly, I can still draw lines, triangles and rectangles but I cannot use the pencil or brush options. I can erase the scribbles that I had written before this fault developed.

Also, the pencil does work in the Note app in the sense that it is possible to draw but the drawings are not saved. They also disappear when I attempt to change the line thickness. However, if I draw a line, triangle or rectangle they do get saved.

I restarted the reader still the same. I tried other documents, same behaviour. I tried another stylus - same.

Has anyone experienced this and know what the fix is?

Solved.

I turned on the reader the next morning and scribbling worked again in both the Neo Reader and Note apps just like that, I didn't do anything, go figure.

Possibly related to what this person experienced with his Max 2.
