can I choose a certain canvas size (eg 1000 x 768 px)
This really looks like a great product, I just played around with it for an hour or so.
I have just a question for which I could not find the answer in the help documentation:
is it possible to choose a larger canvas size than that what fits under all the toolbars? Actually, what I would really love is to pick a size in pixels (say, 1000 x 768) to play around in so to make sure it kind of fits on a monitor if it would be a full-screen webpage. Of course that size would be too big to be visible on my screen with all the toolbars etc, so there would be scrollbars needed. And maybe a 'zoom-out' if you really want to make it cool :-)
Even better of course would be that I could make my design on that canvas, than could see how different sizes (smaller, bigger) would work out: what would drop off or how much space would be extra.

Inappropriate?Hello Marc, there are a few ways to achieve what you're asking for.
You could add a browser control or a rectangle or a dialog window and stretch it past the right or bottom of the application to resize it. Scrollbars will appear, as well as an overlay of the current size of the selection.
If you want to be pixel-perfect-precise, select that same control and look at the floating property inspector, second row. Click on the size and position to edit it (this requires 1.5, which shipped last Friday).
Let me know if this works for you!

Inappropriate?Thanks so much! pulling in the webpage is indeed a very good way of creating a canvas of a certain size (and it has the added bonus of looking like a webpage too :) ). Thanks for superfast answering!
I don't think this allows for viewing the design in different screensizes, but I'll play more with it later (prob in the new year) and if it all works great, I'll see if I can find the dollars to buy it ;-)
I’m thankful
