Hello!

Yes the plans somewhat ambitious, but its fun with ideas :)

1, page. I think we once talked about paperspace and possible support for multiple pages, but the current LC is a single drawing area (conceptually infinite 2D plane);

What if a single drawing held the information and the pages was constructed in layers
side by side restricted to A4 papersize distances? you could make a setting for the template and when you want a new page this would create a new layer with the preset template containing your texts.
Symbols would still be handled in the block list?
The only problem that could mess things up would be drawing in the wrong layer.
This could be solved by having different drawing modes. Layer on layer or Layer side by side.

So if you choose to draw on page 1/layer1 you cannot draw somewhere else outside the A4 papersize area of that layer?

Kind regards
