[QUOTE="Iguana, post: 247917, member: 3254"] Thanks for your response! I tried all of your tips without resolution. ……………………………… Another thing to try is when the behavior occurs, place three fingers on the touchscreen, it's sort of a touch reset for a "ghost touch" issue iPads have. ……………………………… Anywhere on the touchscreen? While TPA is running? How long should I make contact with the touchscreen? Another member on the forum offered to try and reproduce my problem. I wrote the following to him: ……………………………………………………… I don't know how you hold your iPad while playing... I support mine with three fingers in back, "pinkies" curled while supporting the bottom, and thumbs tapping the touch screen. The dead spot is approximately 1-1/2" from the bottom and 1/2" from the left side... Slightly left to where my thumb naturally makes contact with the touchscreen while holding the device as described. I've been able to reproduce the dead tap by cradling the ball with the right flipper and repeatively tapping with my left thumb. I noticed when I keep my thumb in contact with the touchscreen after finding (for lack of a better term) the sweet spot, the flipper remains in its down position. I have most of the better pinball apps, and have been able to reproduce this issue on Zacc, Zen and Time-shock (and each available orientation). On Zacc, the right flipper cradling the ball will eventually deactivate while I keep contact with the left flipper during its unresponsive state. So puzzling... All evidence suggests the iPad Pro is the culprit, as the problem occurs on several apps. On the other hand, all of these apps were developed prior to the release of the iPad Pro... I don't now if I'm using the correct term, but could it be a translation issue? As in the apps aren't optimally functional on an iPad Pro because the device was released after the apps were developed. …………………………………………………………………………………… I've read on the forum about TPA not being optimized with native resolution for the iPad Pro. Could this be the reason I'm experiencing this problem? [/QUOTE]
