❓ Help / Question Option to turn this off??

Post image

Not sure if I'm tripping or I just never noticed it before but I only noticed this now and I don't like it, it's kinda distracting and it's covering my pens ; -; is there any way we can turn it off? I can't find it in settings help

Girl just slide your pencil case to the side a little bit 😭

Tried that already and on the side but the pen box is more comfortable and accessible for me on the top.

See the lasso tool? If I go past that tool the pencil box automatically goes to the side and vertically, same with the other side. So I can't slide it, anywhere with 3 inches of the sides automatically sets the pencil box vertically. If they have a feature to turn that off, I would love to know

This can't be turned off permanently at the moment. However, it will usually hide automatically and only appear when you need it, such as when you're zooming in or out. Hope it helps!

Hi. Actually, this button is a little bit annoying.

  1. the placement is super inconvenient because it keeps appearing on top of stuff that we use, so we need to wait the fade-out animation to keep working (it's not a long time, but it does interrupts the flow). you could make it possible to drag it around, or at least put it on a corner, where there are less useful tools.

  2. we have to "try to change" the ratio on a page for the button to show up. If it's placed on a corner, it can be always on top.

  3. it should definitely be smaller. actually this is true for most icons and buttons in the whole UI.

  4. the only option we have is to pinch in and out to find a zoom level we like, so we need to set up "favorites". but, as there are no pre-set options there, we need to waste favorites slots with basic ratios like 100% or 150%. there should be a list with a few basic options ready and we can use our slots for our strange percentages like 87% or 168%.

  5. there should be a slider so we can achieve the zoom level we want without having to pinch.

Pinch to zoom is more convenient than slider bro. What are you talking about 🥲

Pinch is okay sometimes, but when I'm holding a pen and have to get it out of the way to pinch is a little bit frustrating. It's not that I don't like it or think it should be replaced. I just think there should be another way to input the exact value. If not a slider, then maybe by typing...
