Configured grid size

Open defint opened this issue 4 years ago • 5 comments

Hey As a user, I would have configured grid size to have the possibility to stick some points to grid corners. I read the topic here: https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/pull/1788 but I didn't find any final thoughts... I can propose the next idea: Screenshot 2020-08-29 at 22 59 47

I'm not convinced we need to have it adjustable.. sensible default is the way to go

When we developed the grid mode, we discussed about customizing gird size. Let's keep it open for a while and collect possible use cases that may be convincing.

Please add this. The default grid size is far too tiny on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S8+ (using the Obsidian plugin). It needs to be about 5-10 times larger for my preference. Unfortunately is a bit of a deal breaker for more general university note taking as I really need the properly sized grid.

When prototyping UI or making a floor plan, it would be very convenient to set exact length of a grid cell in pixels so that you can have accurate sizes and distances for reference.

Even if it is just in the settings, it would be really useful. Something like 'default show grid' toggle + 'grid size (20)' input as I have an entire set of measurements for reference at '50' grid size, to plot out floor plans for my novels
