- CPoint at Insertion Point.

Dear Thomas,
With AutoCAD one can change the guide point style, and then set the size to relative or absolute. Is this something that can be done with your plugin?
Further, when working with assemblies, I would sometimes like to select all the cpoints and then hide them. Again, is that possible with your plugin? Options like hide_all and hide_selection would be useful.
Kind regards,
Bob -
Dear Thomas,
The attached images show the effect of 'cpoint relative'. It would be nice to set the cpoint to an absolute size, say 1 mm, so that the cpoints are only visible when one zooms in to the model.
Regards,
Bob

CPoint at intersection of selected? -

No - the appearance of CPoints can not be changed in SU.

There is a Hide/Show Guides under the View menu if I remember correctly.

CPoint at intersection of selected?Isn't there plugins that do this?

Maybe but all in one package is more practical
-
THANKS!!

Would there be a way to add an array copy to guides or cpoints?
-
Does it possible to have circular Guides line?

Other than the native Move+Copy array?
-
For some reason, the whole time I've used Sketchup, I thought array copy with the move tool didn't work with guides. Apparently it does! 
Learn something everyday. I think I tried it using the #/ to equally space copies between points which doesn't work and assumed forward array didn't work either. Dieders tools are great too and hence all my requests are instantly met. (On a side note, can you implement a multiple copy array feature to your divide face tool? That would be very handy!

hmm.. that works with C_lines (and cpoints as well)..
maybe you didn't copy/move it to begin with and only moved it?[edit] i was gonna say that you're supposed to type it like /# instead of #/ but i just tried it and they both work..
