Question

Short strokes appear as dots with Apple Pencil Pro in Adobe Fresco

Hello Adobe Support,

 

I’m experiencing a serious issue with Adobe Fresco on my iPad Air 11-inch (M3) using an Apple Pencil Pro.

 

When I try to draw short, quick strokes, the lines sometimes appear as dots. Longer strokes can be drawn without issue, but if I try to draw quickly, only a dot appears.

For example, when writing the Japanese character “え”, the first stroke becomes a dot, while the second stroke is drawn correctly.

 

This happens with all brushes in Fresco. However, in other painting or note-taking apps, I can draw short strokes normally with the same Pencil.

 

I contacted Apple about a potential Apple Pencil Pro defect, but they confirmed that since it works fine in other apps, this is definitely an Adobe Fresco issue.

 

For reference, I previously used an iPad 6th generation with the original Apple Pencil (older model) and did not experience this problem.

 

I rely on Fresco for my daily work, and this issue severely affects my efficiency. I also found that other users have reported the same issue years ago, but it appears it has not yet been resolved.

 

I would greatly appreciate your urgent assistance in resolving this issue.

 

Thank you very much for your help.
