Add Image option before sketch

[blueeagle69]

Hi.
Love this software. Already donated.
I noticed that during a sketch the Add Image button is greyed out until a sketch has been completed. Just thought to myself that the option to add a reference image would be useful before a sketch is started?

Thank you!

@blueeagle69 thank you, and thank you for the donation! Good point: the button was only greyed out because a new sketch starts with the line tool, and Add Image worked only with the Select tool active. Until the next release, click the Select arrow first, then Add Image works right away, before you draw anything.

In the next release Add Image is always available in the sketch: a click switches to Select by itself and opens the image picker, so you can put the reference image in first and trace over it.

@blueeagle69 it's in 1.108.0: Add Image is always available in a sketch now. A click switches to Select by itself and opens the picker, so the reference image can go in before you draw anything.

You rock. I'll donate again soon!
