Welcome to the 3.5.0 release of tldraw. This month's SDK release improves grid snapping, some usability improvements around layering shapes, and more fine-grained controls around exporting.

What's new

Snap to grid when creating shapes (#4875)

This PR makes sure that shapes snap to the grid when created. It adds a maybeSnapToGrid function, which can be used to push a shape onto the grid if grid mode is enabled, both when click-creating and when drag-creating.

Smart bringForward/sendBackward (#4851)

Improved the 'bring forward' and 'send backward' actions by making them only consider nearby overlapping shapes when deciding the next ordering.

Better support scale / quality in export utilities (#4795)

This helps better control the scale when using the image export utilities in tldraw. We now have the option to pass scale and pixelRatio to the export functions to give more fine-grained control.
