Hello, WilliamSag

I had to split this out of the topic you originally placed it in, as it was not relevant to that OCR discussion. In the future, you can create your own posts by clicking the "new topic" button in the top left while looking at any subforum.

Now on this topic, I am afraid that this is not something we would offer. Touch rejection, such as palm rejection and misplaced fingetips while using a stylus tool, are the domain of the Operating system or your touchscreen device drivers. If they pass touch input to us, we have no way to identify if it is intentional or accidental, we simply honor it as it comes through. You may be able configure something to this effect through the options they offer, but it is not something we can offer inside our software alone.

Kind regards,
