Note: There is no defined minimum or maximum scale for the gestural input. The tolerance
is defined by the Inkwell technology. However, the size at which certain gestures are
drawn may affect the result of the gesture. For example, when using the “fit to fill” zoom
gesture and you draw a large circle, the zoom amount is small. If you draw a small circle,
the zoom is large.
