Surface Pro
I have the original Surface Pro, with the Wacom pen and do not get the lollipops. Your results look very much to me like a pressure sensitivity tracking issue. Given that N-trig is supposed to have around 256 vs 1024 for Surface Pro (2048 for Cintiq) it makes sense. You may be able to fix it by adjusting the sensitivity curves, but I've never done it for N-trig (only Wacom). If you turn smoothing off you should be able to tell, because you'll get a ton more points and the pressure should be associated with individual points.
Pea Pod appearance
I do see it, but not as pronounced. I tried altering the stroke thickness per point, and even curvature. I don't know how ASP is calculating stroke thickness, but what appears to be happening is that there's not a smooth continuity between the thickness associated with one point and the next. I think the think that is affecting Fonce Falooda the most is both
- a few number of points (transition doesn't have a lot of steps)
- taper on and off is set
I don't think it's the exact same thing, but Fonce, you may want to take a look at thin constant strokes in a curved line and then adjust the curvature at single points. You'll start to see a lumpy type of curvature that somewhat resembles the outline of the stroke. Like I said, I don't think it's the same, but ASP may be using a similar approach for the line itself and the outline of a stroke, esp since people have pointed out the bezier is not used.
Finally try turning smoothing on and drawing a straight line with pen pressure and taper turned on for start and end
Too few points to give you what you expect. I think ASP has gotten much better, but probably still not quite where Fonce Falooda would like.
