    There are still four functions to be added.

    1. Let the ordinary pointer tool have the function of recognizing the drawing board code.
    2. A function that conforms to the current drawing board display needs to be added.
    3. The order of arranging the drawing board codes should be coded according to the order from left to right and from top to bottom.
    4. Arranging the drawing boards will automatically globally arrange the order of all the drawing boards. (It is recommended that when no drawing boards are selected, all drawing boards can be globally arranged. But if a certain number of drawing boards are selected, only the selected drawing boards are arranged, so as to avoid the order of a batch of arranged drawing boards from being disrupted again.)
      For the first point and the second point, the Freehand software can be referred to.

    Does this mean that when clicking on a page, that should become the active page?

    Not clear what this means.

    1. The order of arranging the drawing board codes should be coded according to the order from left to right and from top to bottom.

    This will not be possible. Artboards can be positioned arbitrarily on the canvas.

    This should work with the Canvas -> Arrange Artboards, do we need something different?



  • @VectorStyler Generally, 1 and 2 are used in coordination to select a specified drawing board and maximize its display. (2)Pay attention to viewing the "Freehand" clip, the pictures from 47 to 55 seconds. (4)The function of 4 is based on the fact that a certain amount of work has been completed, the drawing boards have been arranged, and the printing work has been finished. However, suddenly new workload is added, and a certain number of new drawing boards need to be created and arranged again. If the drawing board arrangement function is used again, the printed and unprinted drawing boards will be mixed up. Therefore, it is hoped to add this function.



  • @VectorStyler 1.It is also very useful when printing the current drawing board.。A greater need for the function of 2 is to paste the required graphics to the exact center of the drawing board, which makes it more convenient to arrange and print the graphics. (Of course, a function of pasting to the center of the view that I mentioned before needs to be added here.)

    For the third point, Freehand can be referred to. Select any drawing board randomly, and when its position is moved, the code of the current drawing board will be updated automatically. (Pay attention to the change of the drawing board code below.) The coding sequence is always in the order from top to bottom and from left to right. If Visual Studio (VS) uses this feature, it will be much more natural to view the order of the drawing board codes when arranging the drawing boards. First, there will be no situation where the drawing board codes are odd numbers above and even numbers below. Second, there will be no situation where the drawing board codes are arranged in a ring - like pattern, which is very difficult to operate. I hope this function can be added. Thank you.

    and when its position is moved, the code of the current drawing board will be updated automatically.

    This cannot be done in VectorStyler. The artboard names are associated (and editable) to the artboard and they cannot change based on position.

When one row of artboards is arranged into two rows, the artboard coding has odd numbers on the top and even numbers on the bottom, and the logic is a bit wrong. It is recommended to adopt the arrangement method of AI software and use five buttons for control. The first four buttons control the arrangement direction, and the fifth button reverses the direction. I think this can basically meet the needs of most people. Please add this function.

    I will try to improve this.

    This operation is much more convenient now. There is also a problem. The arrangement methods of the third and fourth in the first row should be in a horizontal row and a vertical row to arrange the drawing board, but it seems ineffective (after modifying the two rows, it is ineffective to use this arrangement method again).

    I can't quite understand the meaning of the activity page. For Freehand, simply click on the drawing board. Only the drawing board bar below needs to be able to recognize the current drawing board's code, without the need to select and move the drawing board. Recognition alone is sufficient. And this does not conflict with the properties of the drawing board tools. I hope this feature can be added.

    The active page is used by some actions, like exporting (current artboard) or zooming to artboard.



  • @VectorStyler The function of the red arrow above is not in the shortcut key list. What is in the list is the dialog box for batch - creating drawing boards. I hope it can be added in. 0_1734447639637_mmexport1734446071681.png


  • administrators

    @monsterfox I added this to the backlog.



  • @VectorStyler By the way, as shown in the figure, the shortcut keys cannot be set. I hope it can be fixed.

    1. It is hoped that a function of maximizing the display of the current drawing board will be added to this menu, and this function has the same effect as maximizing the display of the current drawing board after clicking on the drawing board in the canvas panel.

      2.At present, after clicking on the drawing board, the drawing board property bar below will automatically recognize the code of the current drawing board. Therefore, the English names of these drawing boards are now redundant and it is hoped that they can be removed so that it will look more concise and clean.

    This is in the view menu (if I understood correctly).

    removed so that it will look more concise and clean.

    You can hide the artboard labels with View -> Margins -> Show Artboard Labels
