What's New in Grid Drawing

1.31

October 25, 2026

Compare's video is now a series of stills: the whole piece, a few close-ups, then a slow zoom out from an eye. The size screen can set the paper apart from the grid: tap the chain, give the paper its own size, press and hold to move it. A drawing opens sharp at once; the layers and detail levels load behind their buttons and flash when ready. Sideways, the size screen puts the picture on one side and the controls on the other, and the dials follow your finger. Layouts for the iPhone Duo.
