Writing in a presentation in PowerPoint 2007

[Autumn]

I'm writing with a Wacom writer tablet (not a tablet PC) in my power point
presentation. When I write too fast and I touch the pen down close to where
I finished my last line, I'm having a problem with a line jumping across the
page. Basically its making a new line and isn't sure where to put it, so it
slings it across the page.

So I'm trying to figure out how to change the sensitivity in powerpoint so
that it won't happen any more.

Thanks!

I think what you're seeing is actually a bug -- or related to a bug where,
when you press Shift and extend a line, it shoots off the edge of the page
and gets crazy-long. Have you applied SP1 for PPT 2007? I think that bug was
fixed in SP1.

Thanks for the advice, but that didn't seem to fix it.

Anybody else have any suggestions?
