Hello creators and others!

Is it possible to export the document of pages in PDF with a grid? Also, is it possible to set "infinity" board? For my students I need this options implemented...

Hello,

It's actually not possible, sorry. Due to our limited resources, we won't be able to prioritize on these features.

Also, what do you mean by "infinity" board ?

Hello @kaamui ! Sorry that I response after nearly two months, I forgot about it...

I understand... Sad thing, but I got it... Infinity? When you are scrolling screen by mouse, you would be able to move the "scene" !

Hi @kaamui I would volunteer to implement the "grid on PDF" option as a configurable feature. However I struggle where to put this option on the settings:

Together with the PDF rendering checkbox on the first tab of the settings or,
together with other grid options on the second tab.

The first tab is already quite full, and adding another line would probably resize the dialog or require a scroll pane. But what is your opinion?

The export option for background grid and color to PDF is now merged and will be available in 1.6.2 using the configuration settings as described in the above-mentioned pull request.
