Additional optional grids for yz, xz?
« on: September 24, 2021, 12:24:09 AM »
At the moment we have the option of switching the grid off and on. It'd be nice to have the option of switching two or three grids individually off and on, for the three different planes. At the moment I tend to use the grid as an x-y "floor" for orientation, which is great, but then leaves one without anything to fine-tune alignment against for vertical features.

In preferences, we can set which plane the grid is on: xy, xz, yz, and also it's cell size and unit, etc.

But for sure, it'd be nice to be able to toggle the other two planes on and off too.
Or perhaps a key to switch planes, such that it would cycle between xy, xz and yz.  Perhaps momentarily flashing up the plane the grid is now on, or including it in the Info, when the grid is on?
