Apple Pencil fault in OS11

in OS11, my Apple Pencil has become flaky and inconsistent when writing. Particularly when I have my hand resting on the screen to write, it now creates dotted characters instead of strokes, or nothing at all. There is a lag. This seems worse with my hand resting. It is better if you make no other contact with the screen except for the pencil but only yesterday before I updated, all was well under OS10. I also use the third party handwriting app NOTES PLUS and this is now very erratic and practically unusable. I have restarted, turned BT off and on to re-connect the Pencil, recharged Pencil, changed tip, cleaned screen. Also tried many apps with the same result. (Notes Plus, INKredible, Paper 53, Notepad+, as well as the Apple Notes app pre-installed. All now give bad results with these new symptoms that did not exist prior to OS11.

As iOS 11 is now public, user-centric queries/comments such as this are perhaps best put to Apple's public community support forums, run by AppleCare, and/or Apple's twitter support account, vs. risking off-topic here in the DevForums, thanks and good luck.
