I'm still working on it but I've added a "grid configurator": select the page width you want + the number of columns and you will be provided a list of column widths + gutter widths sets to choose from. With visual feedback so you can preview what your grid will look like...
The "draw box" tool already works but the "sorting/placing" technique is still buggy! I've also started to work on the exporter but it's not done yet... I'll probably post some screenshots if anyone's interested. It's not too late yet for suggestions! Also, if you'd like to be a bêta-tester please let me know so I can send you preview releases... Bye!
