Hi Brian,

To do this, you could consider using a construction lines instead.

See http://moi3d.com/1.0/docs/moi_command_reference10.htm#constructionlines

For example, there is an explanation for putting a cylinder on top of a box precisely".

Thank you Petr, just not as simple/easy as I grid overlay maybe though.

I see elswhere talk of wire or mesh view options.
I wonder if there could be an object transparency slider instead?
Being able to see through the objects grey/yellow if required may solve a lot of problems perhaps?

Hi Brian, one major thing that the wireframe mode would do would be to speed up the display by a lot since it avoids the creation of display meshes.

Transparency wouldn't have that same "speed increase" effect, so it's not really something that would be a replacement for wireframe mode, but it could certainly be useful for other purposes.

I have added it to the wiki wishlist: http://moi3d.com/wiki/Wishlist
