Adds a "Sidebar panels" group to the in-app docs:
- panels.md — overview + a table of every sidebar panel
with where it lives + a one-liner
- panel-metadata.md — Project Metadata fields (title, category,
IMDb/UPC/TVDB/MBID/custom-tag/language)
+ how they feed publish + designer-mode
equivalent
- panel-layers.md — Layers panel — per-mode surface scoping
(Cover/Disc/Jewel/Custom Art/Slide/Deck/
Pixel/Book), per-row controls, reorder +
group + multi-select, layer-options
field list
- panel-export.md — Export options panel — show/print toggles
for guides/bleed/safe/crops/fold, mode-
specific hides
- panel-print-save.md — Save / Open project JSON + Print/Save-as-
PDF print-dialog tips + Export JPEG/PNG +
mode-specific gotchas
- panel-credits.md — Credits panel — Linked Designs contributor
surfacing, tip button, publish-time tag
emission, private-publish behaviour
- panel-tool-options.md — Right-side floating Tool Options pane —
how it switches between tool options and
layer options, cross-links to per-tool docs
Registered as a new "Sidebar panels" group ordered after Vector
tools in the docs sidebar.

Export options panel
Lives below the metadata + above the print/save panel. Controls what print marks render on the canvas + what gets included in the exported file.
Show / hide toggles
These affect the on-screen display only — they're separate
from the print* toggles below.
- Show guides — trim lines around the artwork.
- Show bleed — outer bleed boundary line.
- Show safe area — interior safe zone.
- Show crops — corner cut marks outside the trim.
- Show fold — for cover wrap, the back↔spine + spine↔front fold lines.
Print toggles
These affect what gets included in the exported file (JPEG / PNG / PDF / print-dialog output):
- Print guides — embed the trim guides in the output.
- Print crops — embed corner cut marks in the output.
- Print bleed — extend the output to include the bleed area.
Printers usually want crop marks ON + bleed ON; production PDF + JPEG usually wants both OFF.
Mode interaction
- The toggles are global per project; they apply to whichever mode is active.
- Pixel-art mode hides the export options entirely (pixel-art has its own PNG / sprite-sheet / GIF exporters in the pixel toolbox).
- Book mode hides them too while editing chapter markdown (chapter pagination has its own controls); they reappear in the per-page canvas editor + cover editor.
Tips
- Toggle "Show crops" ON while designing to leave room around the trim edges; toggle "Print crops" ON only when exporting for a printer.
- For social-media exports, leave every print* off — the output is pixel-perfect to the trim.
