Added Meter Guides to Music paper.
Use meter guides to line up your notes to make it easier to read and play music. Use a "disappearing ink" for the guides so that they will disappear when photocopied. Or scan your music and edit with a photo editor to remove guide lines of your own color choice.
Guide lines come in 1, 2, or 3 (triplets) lines per beat and follow time signature (numerator). First line in beat is "accented" to make it easier to count beats when multiple lines per beat is used.

In addition to picking colors from the color wheel or entering an RGB or HSB value, colors can now be picked from an image or a live camera scan. An unlimited number of palettes can be named and saved — all available to any other paper. Painted grids shared to another device with QuiltPaper will include its palettes.

Makers and scientists asked for this feature — Can we put a grid over an image?

Brick layouts! Thank you to the creative who requested the unique paper to make it easier to create bead pattern layouts. It is possible to make grids in either brick or peyote patterns.
Now Grids can be specified by setting the number of Rows and Columns. Hopefully requestors will find using this option much easier than playing with sizes and margins.
The app now supports Dark Mode!
ALSO a new bundle was added for a one-time purchase of all current papers, as well as new ones as they are added. (You deserve credit! The price for the bundle is reduced by the amount paid for papers or options previously purchased!)

Finding files will be SO MUCH easier now! Thanks to comments from our users we got a good understanding of their specific concerns and we believe this version is the answer.
The biggest change is that Grids and Paint papers are no longer listed under separate tabs. Now, each Paper has a single list showing both grids and Paint pages (a badge identifies Paint Pages).
**PLUS** a new file folder feature has been added to the main screen. Tap the file folder to see a list of ALL the grids and paint pages across every type of paper (a badge identifies Paint Pages).
ALSO — An improvement has been made to Paint pages text feature. Now, when editing a note, just a tap in an area with no note will make the keyboard go away.

New feature added to basic app thanks to thoughtful insights from users! In addition to coloring a grid, now you can also add notes and lines as annotations. Annotate using a choice of text colors and size -- simply drag to reposition. Draw lines using a choice of colors, width -- then drag to re-position. Just a tap toggles the display of annotations and lines to let you see the colored grid underneath.
