There are some perf and input issues that happen when we go past 60fps. It’s an issue that I’d like to Fully Solve but this was our intermediary fix

Feature: solid white / black background mode Β· Issue #5809 Β· tldraw/tldraw Sometimes I want to record a GIF or take a screenshot and the slightly grey background color adds noise to the dithering or looks wrong against my other background. See Arseny's post here: https://...

As you can imagine there are Reasons why we use a slight grey (to provide contrast to true white or panels). I get bitten by this a lot when recording GIFs though

Hey, sorry for the papercut. It won’t help with screenshots but there’s an option to turn off the background for exports. (Applies to both β€œcopy as” and β€œexport as”).
