Just a little thing and possibly just brainstorming but what about to show ↔ in images just on hover to have the space less cluttered? I don’t find extremely useful to see it all the time.
However, it is not something very important.

That affordable is needed for touch interfaces where there is no hover state

Good point. What about pinch to zoom over an image to make it bigger or smaller? Could it work? Resizing of images does not happen so often, but <-> is visible all the time.

But I get your point. I am not using Kinopio on mobil. I tried it but it did not work great so I am staying now with mouse. However, it is definitely something very important to have.

Is it possible to detect interfaces without hover? Maybe there are like laptops that switch states and don’t tell the browser…

That would conflict with the very natural gesture of pinch-to-zoom for the entire canvas.
Yeah, I realize that’s also an option, but even setting aside touch interfaces, I think one of the principles of Kinopio is that the interface is straightforward and direct. Nothing is hidden from the user. I think that’s part of what makes Kinopio feel so tactile and swift.

True but something is always hidden - even in Kinopio: Be it advanced formatting or pressing “space” with mouse to move the canvas.

i’ll look into this in the future, that being said, the resize button isn’t visible to read only viewers (only you and collaborators can see it)

It is just a minor thing.
Something slightly bigger one (yet still quite small in the bigger perspective) is that [o] and [<->] often hide important parts of an image. But not sure what one could do with that.
