Tool Bar Aesthetic Enhancement for Whiteboard: Revamped Look

1. The New Approach to Interacting With Selection and Hand Tool

Tired of toggling between selection and hand tools on a whiteboard? AFFiNE 0.10.0 streamlines the process by merging these icons and enabling spacebar interaction in edgeless mode. This simplifies tool switching, promoting smoother drag-and-drop actions. Focus on creativity, not complex tool operations, and enjoy a seamless creation experience.

We understand that the beauty of details is meant to enhance your AFFiNE experience, making it not only practical but also visually pleasing. Furthermore, we've added new features such as start and end point styles and the flip direction to provide you with even more customization options for your creative journey.
