Importing References

Hello! :)

I've just recently started using this tool and I'm really loving it so far. Looking forward to spending more time with it.

One thing I'd like to suggest is a way to import and pin reference images to the canvas, as an alternative to opening multiple projects at once. The image could be moved, zoomed, resized, or hidden altogether.

Hi there,
Yeah that would be nice, not sure how many people would use it though. You could paste the reference on a second layer and transform it to a suitable size, although it will be downsampled. Maybe this use case could be achieved together with custom object placement (which is a possible future feature)...

Ah, that's a good workaround actually, thanks! Not too worried about the image quality after transforming it so this would do for now.
