Option to turn on "pen mode" for better experience with using pen
There should be a way to enable "pen mode" when on freedraw mode. And once the pen mode is enable following this should:
- Disable "smoothing processing" when in pen mode
- Palm detection
- This should probably be implemented by not drawing if one point is already touching the screen, this should also fix the issue with mobile devices

thank you for this issue, this is exactly what I wanted to say with #6254
@dwelle Any thoughts?
This limits handwritten note-taking in tablets (Galaxy tabs, Surface, iPads), it looks like it is only a matter of a few adjustments when detecting the pen, right?
hey! any updates on this? I really want to be able to use excalidraw for my notes (right now I use it only for diagrams and such)
@nonoMain yeah, I want to be able to use excalidraw for handwritten notes; pen only mode being optimised would be a godsend since erroneous touch-input renders it useless for note-taking
It's so uncomfortable that I can't put my hands on the tablet.
