      I'm suire it makes sense in your head, but I'm sort of lost for precisely what you want. Do you want it just around the components bounding box? Or a full 3d grid of lines throughout the component? Or is it really a material painted onto the surface of the component only? - that requires UV coordinates which is a totally different problem!, os really just a screenshot of what you have or what you are thining of would really go a long way to help clear up the picture in my mind. Thanks!

          That is exactly what I am looking for, does that work in hidden line view or does it work as a texture?

          This is an example of what I got using the texture method over a scale model of Manhattan

              Yeah, slicer! I think that is a good fit for what you are looking for Kris. I hope it works well.

                would be nice if someone chris would modify the code for you so that it did x,y,z all at the same time and didn't make internal faces. 😄

                  I agree but it quickly does the trick, I am using both methods for various pages. I'll show an example or 2 when they're done.

                      very impressive! so you're drawing over top of the SU model as a guide? very clever.
