Kinopio is helping me greatly to think visually, but if there’s one thing I’m missing is the possibility to jot down a simple image or diagram of something.
One way to do it could be to have 1 more box button (a Draw Box) that allows us to draw and sketch in it.
You’d draw the box and then only within that box, the cursor-trail would actually ‘paint’ something and not disappear.
Something very basic would do, even only 1 color and 1 brush-size.
Just to be able to quickly jot down some visual imagery, without having to open another program to draw and then paste it (which gets grueling if you do it a lot).
Hey Kirnoi, you’re right and drawing is easily the most requested feature on the roadmap so it’ll be the next major project. Curious to why you only want to be able to draw in a box?
How would you handle a scenario where you want to paint select multiple cards but they’re inside a draw box?
Apologies for the repeated question in that case!
The box idea was simply because it seemed like a possibly easier way to implement the feature, but being able to draw freely across the whole board would definitely be better and it would add a lot more interesting possibilities.
got another request for something similar, but it was a draw card. Both of which seem like a lot easier to implement/manage than drawing anywhere on the background, so still thinking about this
what would you prefer for the initial default color:
the color is the user color, but when you change it, the new color will be the default drawing color in the current session. But on a refresh the drawing color will be back to being your user color
same as #1, but the saved drawing color is saved across sessions
what, if anything, should happen to your drawing color when you change spaces?
I think as long as it uses the regular color select where you can save favorites, either solution for the default color is fine to me. Maybe slight preference for returning to the default on refresh/new session.
As for spaces, I could see being able to set default drawing color differently between spaces as potentially nice - not super high priority though.
And I’m… alright with only one brush size, provided it’s a size I like, haha
Slightly too big. The cat I drew is missing some detail.
I think it’s good to keep the size selector for three sizes. For reference, excalidraw has three sizes of brushes and figma has two.
If you do go back to add sizing - 3 dots representation would be good.
I’d go from Small to Large. I would say small would be used more often than large.
Then toggling “D” could also be a shortcut for cycling through sizes (if that isn’t already planned)
How does the eraser function?
Deletes per stroke
Removes like an Eraser
Would a drag and select remove the whole drawing or parts of it?
