remarkable-engineering VS reMarkable_templates

Probably 85% of what I do with it is within xochitl, the stock interface for taking notes. I don't use ddvk—it's too annoying to keep up to date—but I do use custom templates. (I'd love an official way to install templates and persist them across upgrades.) The reMarkable was a significant upgrade from my old paper notebooks, but I really missed the engineering-style grid paper I'd been using. So I made my own templates and use them. I wouldn't say I use custom templates because I'm upset with how the reMarkable is, but I wanted a little more than it gave by default.

It's not quite the same, but I made a series of engineering grid templates with grid lines at inch and centimeter intervals (on different templates for imperial and metric).

I found this. https://gitlab.com/asciiphil/remarkable-engineering/-/tree/master There are some other engineering templates out there.

My go-to is the ⅛ʺ grid engineering template. (I may be biased; I created it.)

Don't know if this'll work for you, but I adjusted the darkness on my engineering grid templates to a level that I thought looked good both on the device and exported. Adding custom templates can be a bit of a pain, but if you want to try, this might be a solution for you.

Here's the reMarkable wiki page on templates for easy clicking. I believe this is the white lines template and this is the engineering template you mentioned. (I made the engineering grid templates, so it makes me happy to see they're useful to other people, too.)

I deal with this in a couple of ways. First, I use some custom templates with a title and date area at the top of the page. I write both in thick ballpoint pen, which is readable from the page overview. That lets me skim through all my pages and find particular ones I'm looking for.
