Hi. I am experiencing the pointer offset issue on Linux Mint with Firefox 143.0 on https://editor.graphite.rs/.

With the freehand tool, if I start drawing with some initial velocity, it will start at some offset and jump to where my cursor actually is, leaving a straight line.

If I instead click and hold with the freehand tool, and then start moving (that is, with no initial velocity), this behaviour is prevented.

The line tool is always affected. It always creates a line at some offset from my cursor, and the end point of the line is always at the same relative offset from my cursor.

Not shown in the demo video is the text tool, which is also affected and prints text at the same offset.

The following tools are not affected:

• Pen tool
• Spline tool
• Shape tool (with default options)
• Ellipse tool

I have not done more testing, but I can assist further if needed. Just heading to work :)
