Stylus not working as it was. Spin 13

craftycraftings

I have a Acer Chromebook Spin 13. I used the stylus instead of my fingers when using the touchscreen. It was working fine as if would if I was using my fingers. However it now acting odd. It is pulling things around my screen before it even makes contact with it at about an inch away (it wasn't doing this before) and if I click to close a screen it wont. Please help I love this machine and don't want to replace it.

I had this problem with my Spin 13 stylus (which doesn't have an internal battery, BTW), Google searched, and found an unexpected but effective solution: bang the stylus on the table. Not hard enough to damage it, but enough to give it a good shake. This has always fixed the problem for me.

When was the last time you changed the stylus' battery? When was the last time you tried to clean the screen? Jack E/NJ

Screen is clean. Does it have a battery?! Ive had it less than 6 months.

The intergrated Wacom stylus does not have a battery

What's your full Spin13  model number. There are dozens of Spin13s. Jack E/NJ
