Hi,
I am running Windows XP Tablet PC edition w/ Service Pack 2 on a Compaq tc4200 Tablet PC.
UltraMon is set in mirror mode. My secondary monitor is a projector.
While scribing in the One Note 2003 application, the pen movement causes a trail of cursors to be painted on the screen.
I can recover by simply stopping and restarting Mirroring. However, after about minutes of writing, the trail of cursors reappears.
I did not have this problem with mirroring off and secondary display enabled. Also, I did not have this problem with version 2.6 with mirroring on an d off.
How do I fix this glitch?

Does the trail appear on both monitors, or only on the projector?
So far I haven't been able to reproduce this issue, I tested with UltraMon 2.7.1 on a Motion M1400 tablet with OneNote 2003.

Looks like an issue with mirroring, but unfortunately I don't know what would cause this, no changes were made to the core mirroring feature between 2.6 and 2.7.
If you have noticed anything else that triggers the problem, let me know and I'll look into it.
I wrote for about a minute in OneNote, if it takes longer for the problem to appear let me know.

The problem usually occur after 10-20 minutes of writing.
It appears that the WinXP Tablet PC operating system is focusing much of its resources on processing my writing at some point. As a result, one or more processes needed by UltraMon was interupted.
I went back to version 2.6: Again, I had no such problem.
My guess would be a process started or used by Ultramon 2.7.1 is behaving sluggishly.
How can I check this?

You can see processor usage with Task Manager, right-click the Windows taskbar to open Task Manager.
On the Performance tab you'll see overall CPU usage, and on the Processes tab you can see CPU usage per process.

Something else: do you also see this issue in other applications which use ink, for example Windows Journal?
I'm going to do a longer test with OneNote and mirroring and will let you know how it went.
