Grid tool in Value Study

One of the longest-standing feature requests finally ships. A proper grid overlay, cell selection, and the ability to focus on a single cell at a time.

Grid mode has been on the wish-list since day one. It's the most requested feature I've ever had.

Every early attempt at it was too slow, or too clunky. With recent performance and code improvements, it finally feels right.

So I'm so thankful to finally announce Value Study has the ability to overlay grids. This works on photos as well as the Live Filter mode.

You can now overlay a grid on any reference, jump focus to a specific cell with a centred zoom, and adjust opacity and thickness from a pair of side by side sliders.

I've also added a nice to have feature, the ability to select multiple cells and to hide non-selected cells. Imagine painting a face and wanting to focus just on the eyes, you can select the cells with the eyes in and ignore the rest.

This is a large feature and it will continue to improve. If anything feels off in your workflow, please send me feedback or a screenshot.
