How do we do something?

I have been looking for an app like that for YEARS!!! So I am very happy and grateful for that, thank you very very much! But I have one problem with it, when I tap the paper button that folds up once things like grids and patterns show up but when I use the eraser while I’m doing the grids and patterns and those things I accidentally erase the pattern, grid or something else. How do we make it so that the eraser can only erase things that I have written or drawn and not things that have already been written or drawn? One other thing actually, once I accidentally erase something besides my handwriting or things that I have drawn it won’t come back. I want to have some kind of button on it that will bring back grids and patterns and other things like that and not just things that I have written or drawn if you are able to fix those things then that would be great but PLEASE don’t remove the protractor, ruler, or that button with the hand and pencil, those are the parts I love most of all! Thank you for your time.

New update messed it up for me...

Loved the app. Former version πŸ‘πŸ’―. Simple, clean, not cluttered and easy to use. Only complaint was I couldn't save a session to use later. Updated tonight and completely ruined it for me. More cluttered with the wheels, could not have multiple pages at the same time on the left side of the screen like before. Very sad I upgraded. Please change back. 😟😟😟.

Horrible

Worst app ever. There isn't even an eraser. There are like five colors. It's just a really bad app. Don't even bother trying.

Classroom Pencil Case

Nice app! On the next update, can you render background pages read only so they won't erase when correcting errors with the erasure tool?
