My dream drawing app would let you draw a stroke multiple times and then pick out your best attempt. No need to undo all the bad ones to try again. It separates the generation and the judgment. http://zeroprecedent.com/lore/flipmark.html

I think clip studio pro has this functionality .. as well as clipping of the pointy ends of strokes that go over next line.

there is no way to export the canvas. why ?

There is Edit > Copy As SVG Not an intuitive location (I was expecting it in File > Save As), but its there.

It also doesn't appear to do anything; the menu just sits there after you select an item.

In fact, it really doesn't do anything if nothing is selected on the canvas. This is not intuitive; you expect it to copy the drawing to the clipboard.

If something is selected, the copy works, but the menu still sits there.

Just use SVG-edit & draw each stoke on separate "Layer".

"New Project" asks if you want to "Save your current project" and the options are "Yes" and "Cancel".

I would expect Cancel to cancel the new project rather than losing the current work, and would expect a "No" option instead to mean lose the current project.
