Axis Indicator in Entity Info?
-
Here's a fairly simple idea. Maybe offered before now...
Often I've seen the advice to show lines colored by axis (or whatever the command is) to investigate coplanar issues or figure out which of two lines is the plumb one, etc. The problem is that the option is a few layers deep in the menus and even as I type this I'm not finding it quickly. I know it's there somewhere, but I'm still a newbie. Probably stumbling right over the top of it. Surely it's a useful function in ways I haven't even imagined yet. But perhaps the clicks could often be saved with the following idea:
As a supplement, it seems like it would be easy for axis color of a line or edge to appear somewhere in the entity info box when applicable. Maybe just a little square of the axis' color that's the size of one of the checkboxes. Seems like there's room there in the entity info window and I'd imagine pretty simple to program.
Just an idea... not sure if others would find it useful.
