feature request: change size of background squares in sketcher when using large scale

Post by freecc »

I use sketcher a lot and when I create large things ( 4m) the squares in the background stay small and are just annoying instead of helping, so I am requesting that you scale these according to the scale you are working in.

You are pretty fast with your request. Please consider working through some tutorials (e.g. BPRLFE's youtube videos are highly rated by forum members) and consider further to ask these questions in the help forum.
A Sketcher Lecture with in-depth information is available in English, auf Deutsch, en français, en español.
