Hey there!
I really enjoy using Rnote, however I find it very difficult to embed Rnote documents elsewhere.
Think adding a Rnote sketch to a GitHub README / any other markdown file,
or for my use case, embedding Rnote annotated PDFs into typst documents.
To make other programs ingest Rnote documents, they first need to be exported to common file formats, manually, on every modification of the document.
Yes, one could create a CI workflow to automatically export the document using
rnote-cli,or set up a file system watcher to invoke
rnote-cli exporton every modification,however that is very clunky, or just not applicable for other uses.
This pull request adds a new document-level setting, to automatically export the document as <basename>.svg on every save,
making it very easy to embed the document in other places, and avoids the document and export drifting out of sync.
Im not deeply familiar with the codebase and no GTK wizard, so I oriented myself on existing implementations of settings rows, hope the implementation is decent.
I would love to hear your feedback on this and my current implementation, and hopefully get a feature with this purpose added to the upstream project.
Thanks!
