Add linear measurement calculator widget for architecture and design work
Hi Squid team,
Love using Squid for my architecture coursework, but I've hit a consistent workflow issue that's driving me nuts. When I sketch floor plans or work through design calculations in my notes, I frequently need to convert measurements and calculate linear footage.
The problem is I have to stop what I'm doing, switch apps to something like this linear feet calculator (https://zeecalculator.com/linear-feet-calculator), do my calculation, then come back to Squid. By then, I've lost my train of thought, and the creative flow is completely broken.
What would be amazing is a small calculator widget inserted into notes, mainly for linear measurements such as:
- Quick feet/inches to decimal conversion
- Linear footage calculations (length × width for flooring, etc.)
- Basic measurement arithmetic without leaving the app
I know it's super specific, but design students live in measurements. We usually calculate square footage, linear footage for trim work, material quantities, etc. Having this integrated would make Squid a great tool for technical design work instead of just general note-taking.
Are any other design students running into same issue? Would love to see this kind of specialized calculator support for technical disciplines.
Hoping this gets some consideration.
