Canvas

The canvas is an almost infinite space where you can create various objects and interact with them. You can change the visible area of the page as you like. With the Pan View button you can move the page in all directions. You can zoom into the page using the Zoom In button and zoom out of the page using the Zoom Out button. After changing the visible area, the Standard View button appears, which helps you to easily return to the default view. Use the Spotlight to highlight specific areas on your canvas. You can move the Spotlight and change its size.

Background and Rulings

The background color and the ruling of a page can be changed for every page individually. The width of the rulings reflects the width of an A4 sheet to support orientation relative to a student's exercise book. If a dark background color is selected, the line color of lined and squared rulings will switch to white automatically.
