Issue created here if you have any more thoughts on it: github.com/tldraw/tldra...

Feature: solid white / black background mode · Issue #5809 · 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 “copy as” and “export as”).

You mean in the exports, or generally in the app? That’s a new ask, I’d like to learn more!
