Small request: smaller, tighter grid.

What features would you like to see in Pixelmator Photo?

Hello! I’m hoping if it isn’t too much trouble, if we could have a denser, tighter grid so we can see more closely if lines in our photo are straight.

Coming from Lightroom I feel that Pixelmator Photo’s grid is a bit too large. Not a super problem but I spend a few more seconds trying to figure out if my photo is straight. It would certainly help me.

Also, the grid disappears as soon as I release the pencil (or finger) from the screen. If we could have a way to keep it, turn it on and off, it would also be nice.

Thank you!

A photo of my screen since I can’t make a screenshot with the grid (it disappears if I let go):

Screenshot, the grid is gone. In order to make a screenshot I had to let it go.

Hi Cantisani, while in the Crop tool, you can tap the Comparison button to have the grid remain visible even when you're not actively resizing the crop box. As for grid density - noted! We'll have to consider how we could add more precision while still maintaining visibility.
