Designer canvas

A precise, native AppKit canvas built only for labels — millimetre-accurate sizes, rulers with a zoom-correct mm scale, snapping, smart guides, layers and an inspector.

The canvas is a native AppKit surface built for one job: laying out labels at their real, millimetre-accurate size. Rulers show a zoom-correct mm scale, snapping and smart guides keep objects aligned, and layers plus a live inspector let you position everything precisely. What you see on screen matches what the printer puts on the stock.

Capabilities

What you can do.

Millimetre accuracy

Every size and position is expressed in real millimetres, not screen pixels.

Zoom-correct rulers

Rulers keep a true mm scale at any zoom level so measurements stay honest.

Snapping and guides

Objects snap to edges, centres and each other, with smart guides on the fly.

Layers

Stack and reorder objects in layers to manage complex labels cleanly.

Live inspector

Edit exact position, size and properties of any selection in the inspector.

Native AppKit

Built directly on AppKit for fast, responsive editing that feels like Mac.

How it works

From setup to print.

  1. 01 Set the label size in millimetres to match your stock.
  2. 02 Drag objects onto the canvas and let snapping align them.
  3. 03 Use smart guides and rulers to fine-tune placement.
  4. 04 Adjust exact values in the inspector for pixel-free precision.
FAQ

Good to know.

Yes. The canvas works in real millimetres, so a 60 mm wide label is 60 mm on the stock.

No. Rulers stay zoom-correct, so the mm scale is accurate however far you zoom in or out.

Snapping and smart guides align objects to edges and centres as you move them.
