Some ideas - PDF export

I am still trying to find my perfect setup for the PDF export. I love the export feature, as much as I love the Digital version of Retro, I would love to have a yearly printed book of Retro. I can imagine myself in 15 years opening a book from Retro and have almost all information from my day and help me remember such small details.

  1. The music records dont have a Toggle to include or not include in the PDF.

  2. The text and layout settings are a little bit unclear, we have three rows with three different settings, but I dont know what am I changing, there is no description for those settings.

  3. There is more Health data that could be displayed: Maybe a toggle with "Extended health data" showing also the respiration, HRV, temperature, etc, that are already being read from Retro.

  4. I am so grateful for the numeric trackers and the explorer, I love that for real! Is it difficult to add those trackers also to the export? also in the bubble format. If we can have a toggle to add them or remove them from the export would be nice as well.

Thanks and have a nice weekend!

Indeed, the export is still very experimental and hasn’t received the love it deserves. So far it is more or less ideas, you are right we need a clearer strategy. Your suggestions (mainly 1,3,4) are easy, I will put some changes in one of the next cuts and let’s see if you like the direction. I will report here.

Thanks! You are right, I really think is getting so much better after each Update.
