Is it possible to add a tiny function of moving "sketches" around to re-arrange the order in current penpen ? I am using penepn for brainstorm also , but it takes me awhile to find the right sketch for right project I am working on , so , re-arrange sketch order can be much helpful if possible .
The pending features for next release :
Select Random color
Sorting
Background color , image , grid lines

Unlimited canvas is very cool feature. But one function that I still feel too clumsy is panning around the sketch. When making a sketch even clicking the pan mode -icon feels too much - .
What information data does the n900 touchscreen provide? Position, pressure and the press-area size? f it provides the area size, it would be possible to do the pannin like this:
1 small size, propably fingernail or stylys -> draw
2 big size, probably fingertip -> pan
ie. panning with finger, drawing with sharp edge (you really cant draw with finger anyways)
The panning could also be done with fake multitouch: when you are pressing with one finger and then press in other place at the same time, the pressing point is interperated in between. So: if the jump of the pressure point is unrealisticly big, start panning mode.
-> panning with two fingers
As far as I know, no any fake multitouch sensing skill is really work on pressure type touch screen. There have few thesis talk about it , but they have implementation problem which is not sensitive enough or produce fake detection in real world environment.

Hi, new to the thread and app. The application looks really excellent and have already tested that I can get my jottings over to my assistant for inclusion in more formal docs. Thanks!
I would like to add my vote for zooming.
I have two questions:
1) If you long press the color selection box you get the option to close the tool bar which is great. However, I could not find a way without restarting the application to get the tool bar back. I must be missing something.
2) It seems that there are two ways to scroll the screen; using the arrow keys and selecting the 'drag' icon. Is it the best use of the toold bar space to have all those arrows? Just a thought.
thanks for listening,
Fred

So I still think it is worth to keep those buttons unless it have a multitouch screen. But I think it could drop the "left" and "right" button when more tools are needed
@all,
Moreover , I am going to release 0.2-2 within few days(Test to make sure it works). But sorry that I can not implement all the features promised. (At least it will have an options to set background color). I have encountered a bug of Qt. Fix the issue (avoid the bug) take longer than expected....

Enjoying the option to change font / background colour.
It seems as if the anti-aliasing is worse in this release though - all rounded letters / shapes are looking distinctly 'jagged'.

Few suggestions (not sure if someone has already suggested the same)
1. full screen mode
2. background-color dialog. Maybe add a button as well... was not very obvious to me that I had to click on the box to change the color
3. "Export to file"... Maybe export to ???? (file type)... what is the exported file type?
4. update the page thumbnail with the image on the last "view" for the page... I deleted the contents from the first "view" but I had a drawing on its right but now the thumbnail is "empty/blank".
Great Job!
