Hi, I just installed Inkscape to see the differences with Illustrator, unfortunately problems started immediately and I want to understand if it is an Inkscape o Windows problem.
I just started drawing a freeform path with the mouse and the "pencil" tool ... jerky. Basically I do not see in real time what I draw.
I'm not talking about the rough edges of the path before the "smooth" application... I'm talking about the green path visualization, it has always been in real time, I saw it on a friend's computer, but not in my case. Bad thing...
So I try to create shapes with the "pen" tool, but even these lines are not in real-time and jerky. Even moving handles in Bezier curves is jerky .......
I tried to look around and change some options in preferences .. but nothing worked.
Can anyone help me figure out if there is something to set that I do not know?
I also tried using a graphic pen instead of a mouse but it's all jerky anyway.

The proof that something is wrong: I installed the Inkscape x32 version and the bug is gone .....
So I repeat in a different way .. Why in Inkscape version x64 the path displaying stutters while drawing? ... And in the x32 not...?
I have an x64 system and I can't use the Inkscape x64 version....

My pc, as you can see, is very respectable, and the proof is that Photoshop, Illustrator, Krita and Cinema 4D work like a charm.
My PC configuration:
OS: Win 10 Pro x64,
Core: i7-3770K
Ram:16GB RAM DDR3 2133MHz
SSD: SAMSUNG 256 GB 840 Pro 2.5
GPU: NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 680

thanks!

Welcome to Inkscape Community!

To prevent confusion, let's keep your thread going over at InkscapeForum.com.  Then when the solution is found (hopefully we can find it), we'll post it here too.  But let's keep all the discussion in one place for now.  Thanks  :)

Ok thanks for the help in both threads.
I confirm that the solution is to disable the rulers.
