wow, just installed yesterday and i am really delighted. great tool already, with not much to do to get it reeeeeaaaly coool.
my suggestions for improvement:

we need a way for producing squares and circles with a fixed aspect ratio. in illustrator, you would use a modifyer key - i tried to tap somewhere on the drawing space with a finger, but that did not do. maybe, we could have a modifyer key at the left bottom screen. it could be used for a lot of "specials".

the handles sit directly on the corner, so you can't see it. for good positioning, it is important to see the corners. so, maybe they could be semi-transparent or something alike.

cheers to you and congrats to your really nice tool, alphabeta

    I agree. One possibility would be a simple lock toggle on the object bar.
    Actually an object lock menu would be great.
    As in, if you tapped it, it locked the object from being moved, but if you held it down for a second you could lock different aspects of the object, such as... Color, size, aspect ratio, position, level and so on.

    Good idea Alphabeta
