Xmas, more like the back to school offers that are around, but with greater added value.
Thank you once again for your amazing work and dedication.

Version 1.1.0

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

And CPoint at intersection of Guides lines?
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.

Isn't there plugins that do this?

Maybe but all in one package is more practical
