Snap to grid?

Just wondering if that is possible and where it is? For when using select area or drawing a shape. Maybe I'm just blind. :>

Also, more of a wish, but it could be cool if mouse clicks outside of canvas would be registered. Like when I want to select something in a corner or big areas, it is a little annoying to have to be precise with the borders/ corners. 

Cool app, I'm having so much fun with it!

Great to hear!

Yes, so if you hold down CTRL or CMD when you drag an area, that's the 'tile' based mode for most tools. So with the marquee/select area it'll do it by snapping to tiles rather than pixels, and for fills like the dither, or shapes, it'll do it snapping to tiles. Hopefully that solves your problem, but I'll also add mouse clicks outside of the canvas to the list too.

Yes! That is exactly what I needed, ty!

Also helps with me fiddling with big selections/ corners, so that's great.

Hey, clicking outside the canvas to either pan or to drag marquee selections has been added in the latest version, thanks for the suggestion!
