The canvas does the fiddly parts
Lean on the editor for the precise bits: rotation that snaps to clean angles, and guides that line everything up so a busy canvas stays tidy.
- Rotate to a preset angle
- Size anything to the pixel
- Guides that line things up
Everything in this category
Rotate to a preset angle
Tilt a selected shape to a preset 45° angle from the right-click Rotation menu, or type "rotate" in the search palette for quick 90°/180°/270° turns. Fixed steps keep tilted elements consistent, and pinned arrows keep tracking the shape as it turns.
Size anything to the pixel
Type a width and a height rather than nudging a handle until it looks right. Lock the aspect ratio and one dimension carries the other. It is what drawing a floorplan to scale needs, and what a drag handle can never give you.
Guides that line things up
Move or resize a shape and faint guide lines light up the moment an edge or centre lines up with a neighbour, so you can see exactly why it snapped and lay things out cleanly on a busy canvas. The lines match your theme and fade the instant you let go. Switch them off in Settings if you want a bare canvas.
