    Within the settings menu you can find the option edit canvas settings. Here you can adjust the size of the canvas, change the canvas margins, change the grid size mode and value and if the grid should continue onto the margins, change how strongly the cursor snaps to the grid and shapes, and set whether you want to export the full canvas or only the minimum boundingbox of the shapes.

    When adjusting the size of the canvas, you can choose between manually setting a custom width or height, or selecting one of the preset standard sizes.
    The sizes are A1 to A6, US Legal, US Letter, and US Tabloid.

    For each shortcut, you have the ability to configure your own keybinds. The configured keybinds will be saved if you are logged in. You can do this either within the editor by using the edit shortcuts option within the edit tab on the canvas or within the account page.
