Are there plans for a ruler tool?

Hey! I'm not sure if this is the right spot for this question, but I was just wondering if there were plans to include a ruler/straight line tool in the full version. This has become my favorite animation program and I love how it feels to use, but I find myself missing straight lines for guides and perspective stuff. Thanks for the great work! 🙂

Thanks a lot for this input of yours! It has been mentioned to me a few times before - and so we do have it on our todo list. It will not be part of the finished v5.0 unfortunately (because it is feature locked by now) - however we plan to have it implemented in one of the next point-updates (5.1, 5.2, or 5.3).

Thanks for mentioning it!

Best,
Niels

... I forgot to ask: How would you like it to work exactly? I mean, by holding a key while drawing or something like that - or set a start point, then the end point and the line would appear - or having like a "physical" (virtual) ruler that you could manipulate and put at the correct position and then if you draw a line near it, you will automatically get a straight line that follows the ruler? I'm just spewing random ideas 🙂 If you have a way that works best for you - please describe it! 😉
