Esquisse - Canvas
by justKleb
Esquisse - Canvas gives the Esquisse sketchbook an infinitely scalable canvas on which players place and move ripped sketchbook page stickers.
What it does
The addon adds an infinite canvas to the Esquisse sketchbook. Players zoom the canvas in and out with Ctrl and the mouse wheel, pan across it by right-dragging empty space or holding Space and left-dragging, and return to the canvas through the sketched-page button in the top-left corner.
Stickers are added from a ripped sketchbook page. A right-click on a sticker selects it, a right-drag moves it, and Ctrl with the mouse wheel over a selected sticker scales it. Esquisse's existing tools also operate on the canvas, so drawings and page content can be combined with the new stickers.
Esquisse - Canvas requires the base Esquisse mod to run. The mod is released under the MIT License, is not open source, and is published for NeoForge 1.21.1, with 0.3.9 as the latest file on the beta channel. Servers that run it need every player to install it too.
Key features
Infinite canvas
The sketchbook canvas extends without a fixed boundary, so drawings can grow past the original page.
Zoom and pan
Ctrl with the mouse wheel zooms the canvas, and right-drag or Space with left-drag moves the view across it.
Ripped page stickers
Stickers made from ripped sketchbook pages can be placed on the canvas and reused across drawings.
Sticker selection and scaling
A sticker is selected with a right-click, moved by dragging, and resized with Ctrl and the mouse wheel while hovered.
