Grid & lines in templates when using apple pencil
It would make it easier to write information down on an iPad, by adding lines and grids to the background when taking notes or drawing. Just like in the Apple Notes app.

+1 to this. I was about to give up on Noteplan because I could not take notes on my iPad. The drawing feature brings it *almost* there. But with my handwriting, having grid lines is essential.

You can already do this. You can change the background pattern using bg-pattern and change it to lined, squared, mini-squared or dotted. https://help.noteplan.co/article/256-frontmatter-editor#back…

Thanks! That was not quite what I was imagining, but it does the job.
I'd love this. I'm glad I'm not the only one interested. I use NoteShelf so I'm used to having the ability to write on grids/lines. It would be fantastic to have the ability to do that here in NotePlan too.
