Picture layer and change of edit mesh mode grid color

Hi,

I'd like to have the possibility of putting a picture (of a face e.g.) in front of the working area (as a layer with variable transparency). It would really help with faces and proportions.

And I'd also like to know if I can change the color/transparency of the mesh editing grid. These white lines are annoying...

Thanks,
Thom

You can change the grid color in Preferences.

There is a free tool that will give you an image overlay: https://imageoverlayutility.bitbucket.io/. Works quite well.

Hi and thanks for the reply.

I will try the free tool, good tipp!

But the grid color in Preferences is only referring to the world grid - not to the mesh mode...

I'm sorry, I should read better...:blush:

I agree, it is kind of bright. I'm sure a setting could be added. It might be worth to enter it as a suggestion in Feedback Tracker.

No problem. And thanks again!
