Flexibility of SoftPot Membrane Potentiometer during the use? Does anybody have some information or experiences with the flexibility of Spectra Symbol's SoftPot Membrane Potentiometer during the use? Is it possible to partly wind it up on a reel (or something similar) and use the remaining part dynamically without loosing precision and control? Are there "ghost touches" caused by the force/pressure of bending/winding the sensor strip? Or should the sensor always be used in a flattened position?

Thanks for any helpful comments.
As you can see from this data sheet it will show you examples on how it is used. https://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/Sensors/Flex/SoftPot-Datasheet.pdf

I'd buy a curved one just to make sure, because as it bends, the 2 conductive materials will touch.
